Description

Coupling the convenience of a NATO rail with the versatility of our cheese plate adapter, this kit is the perfect option for slimline camera setups. Mounted from the top or the bottom of your rig, the cheese stick provides a convenient offset for 20mm of clearance from the camera body. The cheese stick, meanwhile, combines a NATO rail with 1/4” and 3/8” threads for varied accessory mounting.

With an easy-press safety and a hard stop, the NATO cheese stick is the ideal option for run-and-gun accessory mounting, combined with the simple effectiveness of the cheese plate adapter.

Compact Convenience

Add a NATO rail to your camera setup with threaded holes to create simple rigs. The NATO rail provides 85mm of sliding travel for NATO accessories, whilst also having a hard-stop at the base to prevent components falling off.

An easy-press safety means no pinch points when trying to release accessories from the NATO rail.

Top & Bottom Mounting

Two M4 points, spaced 10mm apart, are available on the top & bottom of the rail for attaching the cheese plate adapter. This provides the option to mount the cheese stick from the top or bottom.

The cheese stick includes the 10mm M4 screws for mounting to the adapter, and the adapter comes with the captive 1/4”-20 screw for installing to a top plate or baseplate.

20mm of Clearance

To further streamline the camera rigging process, the cheese plate adapter provides an offset from the mounting point. This provides 20mm of clearance from your camera body – ideal for uneven surfaces on the camera side such as switches or camera input ports.

For Compact Setups

The cheese stick and adapter mount discreetly to your camera setup, providing an ideal combination of customisation and compactness. With a line of 1/4” and 3/8” threads, this kit is perfect for securing transmitters or other accessories to the camera.

Consistent Quality

Made from top-quality anodised aluminium, the cheese stick and adapter are both built to handle abrasion and corrosion without issue. The material is both lightweight and strong, making it ideal for mounting components securely.

Our products are built to be long-lasting, so you can purchase with confidence that this cheese stick kit will last.
