The Tilta Armor Man 3.0 Gimbal Ring Adapters Pairallow you to attach a ring-based gimbal to the Armor Man arms by quick release. They're for use in standard operating mode (as opposed to overhead mode). Two adapters are included. Also required for this workflow are the Armor Man 3.0 Universal Gimbal Ring Adapter Clamps, sold separately. The ring adapters are dovetail-based and easily and securely slide into the Armor Man arms. The ring adapter clamps attach to your gimbal ring. The adapters and adapter clamps then connect to one-another by quick release. To remove the gimbal, push the quick release buttons on the adapters, and the adapter clamps will come off.
