Comments about Bogen Imaging Bogen Rapid Connect Mounting Plate 1/4-20" for RC-2 Quick Release Systems (#3157N):
Manfrotto's RC-2 system is very solid, well built. Easy lock down with the D ring. The rubber top grips your body well and stops all rotation between body and plate. The only weird thing is the video pin looks like a screw but it isn't, it's pressed in. At least they include a little info. sheet to explain this.

I bought two in addition to the one I misplaced that cam with my tripod. Excellent product but I have a tendency to misplace them. Comforting to have backups---in fact I think I'll order another.
Comments about Bogen Imaging Bogen Rapid Connect Mounting Plate 1/4-20" for RC-2 Quick Release Systems (#3157N):
If you use a tripod or monopod these little things are very important. I shoot sports,often with a heavy lens and a monopod, and it is so convenient having a plate on each long lens. They are not expensive and they save time which can be so important to the shooting I do. I have several large zoom lens and each of them has their own plate.

This thing just does what it is ment to do.. I am amazed at how well you can lock these things down with the d ring. The top grips your body well enough to easily stop all rotation between body and plate. The rc-2 interface lock extremely well.

Comments about Bogen Imaging Bogen Rapid Connect Mounting Plate 1/4-20" for RC-2 Quick Release Systems (#3157N):
I bought several of these Mounting plates so that each lens is ready to be mounted to the camera, and then firmly connected to the tripod. My camera and each lens has one, as well as my girlfriends gear. This keeps us focused on the shot no matter the lens, or camera used.
Another nice feature is the "D" style clamping mechanism. This is so much better than the old style "find a coin in your pocket" type used on cheaper tripods. Well thought out.

Comments about Bogen Imaging Bogen Rapid Connect Mounting Plate 1/4-20" for RC-2 Quick Release Systems (#3157N):
This is the best quick release plate I've ever used. Attaching and detaching are very easy yet the grip is so secure that you have a confidence in your camera movement. You don't need a coin or screwdriver for this plate. Extremely handy. You just have to be careful not loose it because it's so small. I lost mine once and I purchased a replacement from Adorama. Thank God, the plate is available by itself. I didn't have to buy the whole head!

This is a necessity for Bogen RC-2 tripod head owners who have more than one camera and use them both simultaneously. Or, for those few remaining Pentax 645 users, two plates make it much quicker to change from portrait to landscape mode: one plate for each tripod mount hole.

I bought two of these so I could have one on my camera body and one on my long lense. They are almost an exact duplicate of the original and might be a little better.

Comments about Bogen Imaging Bogen Rapid Connect Mounting Plate 1/4-20" for RC-2 Quick Release Systems (#3157N):
Have the release on all tripods and monopods and keep the plate on all cameras and long lenses for quick connect and release . Great when you need a quick action shot while shooting from a tripod - just a quick flip and the camera is ready to go .
Comments about Bogen Imaging Bogen Rapid Connect Mounting Plate 1/4-20" for RC-2 Quick Release Systems (#3157N):
We use this with 3 cameras & 2 people. It allows us to share a monopod & tripod. One plate on each camera & using 2 types of heads which share the ability to use this plate. All cameras are very secure, easy & fast to mount. Have used them on vacations, family weddings, parties flower shows & animal parks with good success. I like Bogen gear, it's not the cheapest, but is the best I have found in 50+ years of photography.

Terrific mounting plate. Goes on easily, but holds firmly. Best of all, the retractable handle on the screw means you don't have to search for a screwdriver or coin to put it on the lens or camera. Great product.

Comments about Bogen Imaging Bogen Rapid Connect Mounting Plate 1/4-20" for RC-2 Quick Release Systems (#3157N):
I purchased these a couple years ago to use for quick change of binoculars and a small spotting telescope on a bogen tripod and quick change head. They work as advertised and give a nice stable mounting. My only complaint would be that the handle used to turn the screw is quite difficult to manipulate. Space is limited so it may be the best solution but it makes the attachment process slow. The good thing is that with several plates you only need to attach them once to each instrument.

Comments about Bogen Imaging Bogen Rapid Connect Mounting Plate 1/4-20" for RC-2 Quick Release Systems (#3157N):
Im a serious amature and take my photography really serious,..I own a tripod and monopod ( both Bogen series ) this are what make a curcial difference in regards to full control of my composition of my images.
The Bogen Rapid Plates, though such a small piece but plays a crucial role in the game!
The rubber plate really holds my camera body in place,..have but some cheaper versions, but the heat eventually melted the adheisive causequently allowing the camera to slide from position,...the Bogen rapid mount has never let me down inregards to this issue.

This product meets all expectations. The 1/4 inch thread sits in the middle of a strong but forgiving rubber pad that ensures a snug fit and won't get loose.
