The AP-610 Replacement Foot fits the Sony 100-400 f/4.5-
5.6 GM OSS lens and serves three main purposes:
1. Added Stiffness over the factory tripod mounting foot
connected to a lens plate, reducing flex and vibration.
2. Functions as the Arca-Swiss style quick-release plate
for your lens.
3. Creates a more ideal geometry for using your lens on
the Wimberley Sidemount Head and Sidekick, allowing
the lens to balance optimally.
Wimberley lens plates are compatible with Arca-Swiss style
quick-release clamps such as those made by Wimberley,
Kirk Enterprises, Really Right Stuff, Arca-Swiss, Markins,
and others.
1. Remove the factory foot from the lens.
2. Attach the AP-610 plate to the lens using the enclosed
1/4-20 x 9/16”L flat head fastener (Fig. 1).
3. Drive the screw in until you first meet resistance,
then turn it about 30° farther to establish appropriate, but
not excessive, torque. Do not over tighten; it is possible to
shear the head off the fastener or damage the threaded
insert on the lens with the hex key included.
4. Install safety stop screws as shown on page 2 (Fig. 3).
Safety stop screws are not required, however they keep
your lens and camera secure when using a compatible QR
clamp.
