SmallRig 8'' Lightweight ARRI Dovetail Plate #DPR2304 is a 8-inch ARRI-style dovetail plate for a camera rig that needs providing a fore-aft sliding base for compatible cinema-camera support hardware. It is available from Filmgear Canada for Vancouver crews and productions across Canada.
Product Overview
The DPR2304 purchase decision starts with 8-inch length and ARRI dovetail geometry. It functions as ARRI dovetail plate and a camera mounting plate. Before mounting it, check the receiving thread or rail, screw engagement, orientation, available clearance, cable path, operating access, balance, and the combined load of every attached item.
Key Features
DPR2304 Model Identity
This listing is the DPR2304 configuration: 8-inch length and ARRI dovetail geometry.
Purpose-Built Mounting Role
Use it for providing a fore-aft sliding base for compatible cinema-camera support hardware within a matched SmallRig or standards-compatible setup.
Fit Before Load
Confirm the mechanical interface, fastener engagement, clearance, balance, cable routing, operator access, and full supported load before production use.
How It Compares
Choose this 8-inch plate when its travel and ARRI-style geometry fit the baseplate. Choose a shorter plate for compact rigs or a longer plate for more balance adjustment.

Who Is This For?
For camera operators, assistants, owner-operators, rental houses, schools, studios, and production crews assembling a model-specific camera support package.
Who Should Choose Something Else?
Choose another size, interface, orientation, or support class when the receiving hardware, available space, working load, balance, or operating position does not match the SmallRig DPR2304.
