Long 1/4 inch camera mounting screws
  • Looking for some help here. For some reason I thought this would be an easy part to source but it doesn't seem to exist no matter how much I search for it.

    I'm looking for a 1/4 inch long camera mounting screw that will go through my manfrotto 501 plate and then through my opteka Xgrip rig and then into my camera. So it needs to be around 25mm long.

    Anyone have any idea if this part exists and where I might find it?

  • I assume you're after a bolt to go into the baseplate of the camera. If so I'm pretty sure you need a 1/4" 20tpi bolt.

    I'm in the UK but here is a pack of 25 2" long bolts on Amazon US that should do the trick, someone please correct me if I'm wrong. You can simply cut them to size with a hack saw but if you'd like the right size in the first place then do a quick search for what I suggested above.

    Sorry if this isn't the information you were after.
