The Leofoto NF-07 Arca Lens Foot, meticulously engineered as a substitute lens foot, is tailored specifically for an array of Nikon's professional super-telephoto and telephoto lenses. Supplanting the original Nikon tripod foot, the NF-07 incorporates an in-built Arca-style dovetail, establishing a sleeker, less obtrusive, and more secure mounting solution. This is ideal for use with Arca-compatible tripod heads, gimbal heads, clamps, and other support equipment.
Integrated Arca-Style Mounting
The Leofoto NF-07 replacement lens foot is designed for photographers using large and heavy Nikon telephoto lenses who want a direct and streamlined connection to their support system. Instead of attaching a separate quick-release plate beneath the original lens foot, the NF-07 incorporates the Arca-compatible dovetail directly into the foot, reducing unnecessary components whilst providing a rigid and dependable mounting platform.
Precision 6061-T6 Aluminium Construction
Machined from a solid block of 6061-T6 aluminium, the NF-07 combines strength, rigidity and a lightweight design suited to demanding professional photography. The replacement foot is precisely designed around the compatible lens collar interface, providing a secure fit and stable connection. Its solid construction makes it suitable for demanding applications involving large telephoto lenses and professional tripod or monopod support systems.
Low-Profile Design for Stability
The NF-07 uses a low-profile design that keeps the lens closer to the tripod or support platform. By eliminating the need for an additional quick-release plate, it also reduces the number of interfaces between the lens and support system. This creates a clean and direct connection that is particularly useful for wildlife, bird, sports, aviation, motorsport, nature and long-distance landscape photography where long focal lengths demand stable support.
Built for Gimbal and Long-Lens Systems
The integrated Arca dovetail is compatible with 1.5-inch standard dovetail quick-release systems, allowing the NF-07 to be used with compatible tripod heads, ball heads, gimbal heads, levelling heads, pan-and-tilt heads and other Arca-compatible clamps. When mounted to a gimbal, the foot can be adjusted within the clamp to help position the camera and lens combination around its centre of gravity, providing a practical setup for large telephoto lenses.
Integrated QD Strap Connection
The NF-07 also incorporates a QD port for compatible Leofoto SP-Series straps, providing an additional carrying option directly from the lens foot. This can be particularly useful with large and heavy Nikon telephoto combinations, allowing the support point to remain closer to the lens rather than relying entirely on the camera body. The QD connection can also be quickly attached or removed when changing between carrying and shooting configurations. A Streamlined Upgrade for Nikon Telephoto Lenses
