The Vertical Offset component is made up of two Universal Mounts with a height-adjustable spacer element bewteen them. It allows two sets of SYMPLA Rods to run parallel but at different heights, useful in situations such as when wishing to use a Camera Body Support or Lens Support with a camera with a very long tele lens with a tall front lens element that creates a height difference between body, lens front and L-bracket that can't be bridged by the Body and Lens Supports alone.
