Why You Need the Thingy for Your Long Lens Setup
The Thingy is specifically designed to prevent the frustrating twisting motion that occurs when using long lenses on Ultra Plates. Formed from aerospace-grade magnesium alloy—the same material used to make rockets and planes—the Thingy is built to last and provide maximum stability. This lightweight yet incredibly strong accessory attaches seamlessly to the base of your camera and the Ultra Plate, creating a secure foundation for long lens shooting.

Whether you’re a wildlife photographer, sports shooter, or videographer, the Thingy offers unmatched stability for your long lens setups.

Universal Compatibility & Versatility
The Thingy is designed to work with any camera and lens setup where the lens has a tripod collar. Its 1/4"-20 stainless steel camera screw ensures a snug and secure attachment to your camera, while the Thingy itself fits onto the Ultra Plate’s cable management hook, leaving you with a stable shooting platform. It’s fully adjustable for the perfect fit, regardless of your gear combination.
