Leofoto SGF-03 replacement foot with QD mount for Sigma 300-600mm f/4 DG OS Sport

Optimized replacement foot for the Sigma 300–600mm f/4 DG OS Sport

The Leofoto SGF-03 replacement foot with QD socket for Sigma 300-600mm f/4 DG OS Sport is the well-thought-out solution when you want to use your super telephoto lens professionally. The standard lens foot does its job, but with the SGF-03 you get significantly more stability, flexibility and comfort out of your setup.

Specially designed for the Sigma 300-600mm f/4 DG OS Sports, this foot completely replaces the original and ensures a clean, play-free connection to the tripod collar. You benefit from better balance, direct Arca compatibility and an integrated QD socket for your carrying strap.

Precision construction for maximum stability

The SGF-03 was developed specifically for the Sigma 300-600mm f/4 DG OS Sport. The shape is perfectly matched to the tripod collar. No wobbling, no jamming, everything fits precisely and securely. Especially with a fast super telephoto of this class, a stable base is crucial for sharp images and smooth pans.

With a length of 15.2 cm, a width of 4.3 cm and a height of 3.0 cm, the replacement foot offers you a generous contact surface. At the same time, it remains pleasantly light at only 135 g.

Direct ARCA use without adapter

The Leofoto SGF-03 replacement foot features an integrated ARCA compatible 38 mm dovetail profile (according to the manufacturer). You can insert it directly into suitable quick-release clamps, without any additional adapter plate.

The clamping profile fits, among others, into:

• ProMediaGear clamps
• Wimberley clamps
• Really Right Stuff screw clamps
• Really Right Stuff lever clamps
• Jobu Design clamps
• Kirk clamps
• FlexShooter screw cross clamp
• Arca-style compatible 38 mm quick-release clamps

For you, this means: a fast, smooth workflow when switching between tripod, gimbal or monopod.

QD socket for your carrying strap

A truly practical feature is the integrated QD strap socket. A QD-compatible socket allows you to attach or detach a suitable carrying strap in no time. This is a major advantage, especially on long walks in the field.

The QD socket is ideal for nature, sports and wildlife photographers who frequently carry and flexibly use their 300–600mm. The prerequisite is a compatible QD strap anchor. To use the QD strap socket, you need a strap with QD strap anchors: QD strap anchor.

Safety mechanism for maximum control

For additional safety, 2 safety stop screws are integrated. These prevent the foot from accidentally sliding out of an open quick-release clamp. With a heavy super telephoto like the 300-600mm f/4, this is a crucial detail.

On the underside you also have two threaded holes available:

• 1 x 3/8" UNC photo thread
• 1 x 1/4" UNC photo thread

This allows you to flexibly combine the foot with additional accessories or screw it on directly.

Pleasant grip thanks to removable padding

Anyone who carries a 300–600mm f/4 for an extended period knows: comfort makes a difference. The foot plate is equipped with removable padding. This makes the lens sit more comfortably in your hand when you carry it by the foot.

If you prefer a pure and minimalist setup, you can easily remove the padding.

Made from 6061-T6 aluminum, robust and durable

The Leofoto SGF-03 replacement foot is made from high-quality 6061-T6 aluminum. This alloy impresses with high strength, good toughness and corrosion resistance. The components are precisely CNC-milled and not cast, which ensures maximum stability.
