The QuickLock Plate 401-150 locking mechanism consists of three parts:
movable unlocking bolt at the front,
fork-shaped locking slide in the middle
retractable locking bolt at the rear

To attach a camera with V-mount adapter to the QuickLock Plate, push it into the V-shaped notch on the front and pull the locking lever to the right.
The following happens:
Unlocking bolt and locking slide move forwards / left, the locking bolt downwards.
Compared to average standard Quick Release Plates or VCT Tripod Plates (mostly without retractable locking bolts), the Chrosziel locking mechanism with retractable locking bolt has play-freely clamps to secure even worn out rear mounting mechanisms located on the bottom of the camera.
For cine cameras equipped only with tripod screw threads at the bottom , a Chrosziel lightweight support (such as 401-EVA1) enables mounting the camera security to the quick release plate. For ENG cameras, rod support can be added via a Chrosziel lightweight support (like 401-50 for Sony) in combination with the QuickLock Plate.
