The original KONDOR BLUE Mini Quick Release Plates have become a rigging essential and are ubiquitous throughout the industry. With micro revisions along the way, it was time to go back to the drawing board and create the ultimate Mini Lock for professional camera accessories.
Not only is the design overhaul smaller, lighter, and more feature-rich, but it is also compatible with the original Mini Quick Release male plates, anti-twist cradles, and ecosystem accessories. This allows users to upgrade with confidence knowing their initial investments have not gone to waste.
Mounting security is paramount. There are several pro mounting options for the male quick release plate:
Female ARRI style mountMale ¼ 20 ARRI style mount (3mm pins are removable and storable within the plate)NATO rail¼ 20 or ⅜ 16 receiving threads¼ 20 or ⅜ 16 mounting boltsAny of the above options combine with a centralized M4 set screwThe female Mini Lock receiver also received new mounting options. The receiving ⅜ 16 threads are now deeper for more security. Removable 3mm anti-twist ARRI style pins can also be added in either orientation. The outer profile continues to be compatible with KONDOR BLUE’s range of anti-twist cradles as well. Stainless steel mounting hardware for all the mentioned configurations is included with the kit.
Because of the tiny footprint of the Mini Lock, achieving tight tolerances is critical for secure locking. The safety latch—which still features its unique ability to stay fixed when open—now features an integrated M4 nylon tip set screw. Using the included 2mm hex tool, a user can fine tune the plate-to-plate fit by simply adjusting the set screw. The nylon tip smoothly glides along the surface of the male quick release plate removing any potential play, all without marring the surface.
Each line, cut, and engraving has carefully been considered to enhance the reliability of Mini Lock. Available in a variety of colourways, the KONDOR BLUE Mini Lock is the perfect solution for mounting crucial cinema accessories.
