The BCP Hague Balance Correction Plate is designed to help cameras which are not centrally balanced. It simply screws onto the base of the camera either pointing forward or back or to the side. There are then several mounting holes in the plate, choose one to correct the balance and then secure to the mount.
Unfortunately not all camera manufacturers put the tripod mounting hole at the centre of balance on the camera, which means the camera could be front or back heavy, or the mounting hole could be offset to the side on the camera. Larger batteries or a wide angle lens will also affect balance.
This can sometimes cause problems when the camera is mounted onto a support or tripod where it is preferred to have the camera equally balanced for stability. The Balance Correction Plate will correct this, it simply screws onto the base of the camera either pointing forward or back or to the side. There are then several mounting holes in the plate, choose one to correct the balance and then secure to the mount.

HAGUE BCP CAMERA BALANCE CORRECTION PLATE
I have a Nikon D610 with a Nikkor 28-300mm Zoom lens, and when extended to 300mm the set up is very front heavy. This simple but ingenious device is a brilliant solution. Thanks Hague.

Great for small cameras on big tripod
Using a Sony FS5 in a old tripod and the balance wasn't perfect until i buy the Hague BCP. Very nice product.
