Jobu Design SF-NX2 Surefoot 4.5" Lens Plate

Secure, Stable Mounting for Telephoto Lenses

The Jobu Design SF-NX2 Surefoot 4.5" Lens Plate is a precision-engineered Arca-Swiss compatible plate designed to deliver maximum stability, safety, and balance for telephoto lenses.

Slightly longer than the NX1, the SF-NX2 provides additional adjustment range—ideal for photographers using larger lenses or needing extra room for fine-tuning balance on gimbals, tripods, or monopods.

Designed for Stability and Control

Whether you're shooting wildlife, sports, or action, the SF-NX2 ensures your lens is securely mounted and properly balanced. Its extended length allows for greater positioning flexibility, helping you achieve smoother tracking and improved handling when working with heavier setups.

Key Features

Extended 4.5" Length for Improved Balance
Offers an additional 1" of adjustment compared to the NX1, making it easier to balance longer lenses or accommodate accessories.

Universal Arca-Swiss Compatibility
Works with most Arca-Swiss style quick release clamps, ensuring seamless integration with a wide range of tripod heads and gimbals.

Double Dovetail Design
Enables compatibility with Jobu Design Quick Release flash brackets, provided at least 3/4" of the plate extends beyond the lens foot.

Anti-Rotation Safety Design
A curved, non-removable hard stop prevents unwanted twisting of your lens during use.

Enhanced Security Features
Includes removable anti-slide safety screws to prevent accidental release from your clamp, reducing the risk of drops.

Captive Mounting Screw
Supplied with a 1/4"-20 captive screw for secure and convenient attachment to your lens.

Durable Hard Anodised Finish
Finished in hard anodised black aluminium for long-lasting durability and resistance to wear.
