If you mean base plate. It is square base plate by neewer. I bought here s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_EHXFWNV I paid $9.32 with commissions for 2pcs. Do not buy if price is higher. Sometimes they raise prices on aliexpress

When this product just came out, I told everyone, tripod needs to be made by engineers and factories with decades of experience. Peak design does not know how to make tripod and it’s not gonna be as good as let’s say Manfrotto/Gitzo who has been doing it for a long time. And here we are.

It’s not really for a professional setting. It’s for backpacking and saving as much weight as possible. You have to realize that a heavy tripod when going on an expedition is a massive headache. This solves that issue. Is it perfect, no. Does it work, yes. When you’re out in the field it’s all about weight. At the end of the day it’s personal preference.

Don’t get me wrong. I love PD tripod and have been using it for a while. I love how it looks. For camping there are still Ulanzi tripod which is lighter and does not have some of issues mentioned in this video.

True, I had sometimes struggles using new gear. Sharing these hiccups might help others avoid similar mistakes. We all learn by doing!
