Product Information
Full details
The SmallRig 5217 L-Shaped Mount Plate is designed for photographers using the Fujifilm X-Half who want to improve their camera's ergonomics without adding unnecessary bulk. It provides a more secure, non-slip grip through its high-quality silicone handle while maintaining full access to the battery, memory card, and cable ports. While it significantly enhances handling during long shoots, users should be aware that the added depth may alter the feel of the camera if they are accustomed to a completely flat camera body.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To attach the plate, align the 1/4-20 screw with the tripod socket on the bottom of your Fujifilm X-Half. Use the integrated flat wrench located on the bottom of the plate to tighten the screw firmly. Ensure the silicone pads are flush against the camera bottom to prevent scuffs.
For care, wipe the aluminum frame with a dry microfiber cloth to remove dust. If the silicone handle collects oils or debris, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap, then wipe dry. The plate is specifically compatible with the Fujifilm X-Half; do not attempt to force it onto other camera bodies as this may cause damage to the mounting points.
