Category: Tripod Accessories

The PM 3685 M.D. Plate works hand-in-hand with the 3573 M.D. Clamp. This system is designed for fast attachment of photographic accessories. Every PM XC-M tripod comes with a 3685 M.D. plate preinstalled on its yoke. This plate can be purchased as a replacement (in the event of loss) or to add the M.D. system to other tripods, grip items, and accessories.

* Note, if you are replacing the M.D. plate on the yoke of an XC-M tripod, first peel off the soft pad from the plate. It will expose a machined impression on the M.D. plate which mates perfectly with the XC-M yoke and acts as an anti-twist measure.

SPECIFICATIONS: Dimensions: 28 mm Long x 20.5 mm Wide x 8 mm Thick (not including the protruding 1/4"-20 threaded mounting post) Weight: 3/8 oz / 11 grams

Adam T. ★★★★★

The little release button makes swapping plates between my camera and binoculars effortless, and the grip is just tight enough to feel rock-solid on my tripod. I've been using it all week for landscape shots with heavy lenses, and it hasn't budged once.

Avery N. ★★★★★

I was pleasantly surprised by how securely the plate locks into the clamp—no wiggle at all once it's seated. It makes swapping out camera gear on my tripod noticeably faster than the old screw-in setup I was used to.

Eli W. ★★★★★

The plate clicks into the clamp with a satisfying, secure feel that speeds up swapping gear on my tripod. Machining is precise and the locking mechanism holds my camera steady without any wiggle.
