Proper Arca Clamp Size
I was looking on Kirk Enterprises site at their Arca-Style clamps. The clamps come in 1-inch up to 4-inch sizes. What is the advantage or reason for having a clamp that is 4-inches? The only thing I can think of is if you are using an Arca plate on a lens foot, it will give you some room to balance your kit, but otherwise is there any reason? I’m considering a L-plate for my kit in the future so I want to get the proper sized clamp. I might somehow someday in the future own a 70-200, that’s about the biggest lens I could think of. (just in case, I do understand that the size reference is to the length of the clamp and not to the clamps jaw size, the jaw size is a standard no matter the over all plate length )
