I was looking for the thinnest quick release plate I could use to go from shoulder mount, to sticks, to a Mōvi and this has worked perfectly. Works great with Wooden Camera quick release plate. Would highly recommend.

Excellent, strong dovetail. Fits nicely on my Sky-Watcher GTI. It comes with screws and a 3/8 to 1/4 adapter.

Works like a charm. Not in the market to buy a light tracking mount for my camera since I have a Celestron EVO tracker. The vixen dovetail works perfectly to mount the camera and lens. An inexpensive solution; plus it's easy to replace exactly where it was since it has ruler markings.
