FAQs

What is the AP-600 made of?

The AP-600 is constructed from lightweight and durable aluminum.

Is the AP-600 compatible with all lenses?

No, it is designed to replace the stock foot on select telephoto lenses. Check the Wimberley website for compatibility information.

How do I attach the lens to a tripod?

The AP-600 features an Arca-Swiss compatible design, meaning it attaches to Arca-Swiss style quick-release clamps commonly found on tripods and tripod heads. Simply slide the foot into the clamp and tighten.

What tools do I need to install the AP-600?

You will typically need a hex wrench (Allen key) of the appropriate size to remove the existing foot and attach the AP-600. The necessary size may vary, check the product specifications or your lens's documentation.

How do I maintain the AP-600?

Clean it regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the aluminum.

Lens feels unstable on the tripod.

Ensure the AP-600 foot is securely tightened to the lens and the clamp on your tripod head is also securely tightened. Check that the Arca-Swiss clamp is compatible with the foot.
