Wimberley AP-500 Replacement Foot

The Wimberley AP-500 Replacement Foot is ideal for Nikon 500mm f/5.6 PF VR users—wildlife, birding, or sports photographers—needing a stable, low-profile tripod mount. It’s perfect for those with Arca-Swiss systems seeking reduced vibration and improved handling. Budget-conscious pros and hobbyists from Cameras Direct will find this foot a critical upgrade for their telephoto lens, enhancing performance in the field.

Quick-release Replacement Foot for Nikon 500mm f/5.6 PF VR Lens

The AP-500 Replacement Foot fits specific Nikon lenses and serves three main purposes:

1. it is stiffer than the factory tripod mounting foot on the rotation collar, reducing flex and vibration;
2. it serves as the Arca-Swiss style quick-release plate for your lens; and
3. it creates a more ideal geometry for using your lens on the Wimberley Sidemount Head and the Sidekick®, allowing the lens to balance optimally.

It also reduces the overall height of your lens so that it handles better on a conventional tripod head such as a ball head. Wimberley lens plates are compatible with Arca-Swiss style quick-release clamp. Attaching and using your versatile Wimberley replacement foot is a simple process
