YC Onion Quick Release Plate for Pineta Pro Monopod

The YC Onion Quick Release Plate is designed specifically for the Pineta Pro Carbon Fibre Monopod, offering a fast, secure way to mount and remove your camera. It integrates directly with the monopod’s quick release system, sliding neatly into place for a reliable connection on set.

A dual-button release mechanism adds an extra layer of safety, requiring both buttons to be pressed simultaneously before the plate can be removed. When additional security is needed, a built-in twist lock prevents accidental release entirely—ideal when working in fast-paced or high-risk shooting environments. The plate also features a two-in-one mounting screw, allowing you to switch between 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threads. This makes it compatible with a wide range of cameras and accessories without needing additional adapters.

Who this is for

Videographers and photographers using the YC Onion Pineta Pro monopod who need a reliable, quick-change mounting solution with added safety.

• Designed for YC Onion Pineta Pro Carbon Fibre Monopod
• Dual-button quick release for secure operation
• Twist lock prevents accidental release
• Switchable 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 mounting screw
• Compact, integrated fit

How it works

The plate slides into the monopod’s dedicated quick release mount, locking automatically into place. To remove it, both release buttons must be pressed simultaneously, reducing the risk of accidental detachment.

For added security, the twist lock disables the release buttons entirely. This is particularly useful when moving between locations or working in crowded environments where knocks or bumps are more likely. The integrated mounting screw can be switched between standard 1/4"-20 and larger 3/8"-16 threads, allowing you to mount different camera bodies, cages, or accessories without changing plates.

Why choose this product

Unlike standard quick release plates, this system prioritises safety as well as speed. The dual-button release and locking function help protect your camera from accidental drops, while the dual-thread screw increases versatility across different setups.

Ideal uses

• Run-and-gun video shooting
• Event and documentary work
