Comments about Slik Slik Quick Release Plate for 700DX, Pro Ball Head:
This is identical to the one that came with my Slik Tripod, and works perfectly.
Comments about Slik Slik Quick Release Plate for 700DX, Pro Ball Head:
Exactly the same as the quick release plate that comes with the 700 DX allowing use of the tripod with two cameras without changing the mounting plate.
Comments about Slik Slik Quick Release Plate for 700DX, Pro Ball Head:
This release plate is for my three-way pan head, not a professional ball head as the header suggests. The tripod comes with one disk and this is an extra so i can mount it on a backup camera or telephoto lens to allow me to change cameras quickly. It works quite nicely as such.Knowing what i know now though, I would skip purchasing this item an purchase the tripod legs only. Then, I would get a quality ball head for the legs.However, if you are not inclined to plunk down $400 for a nice ball head, this setup works just fine.
Comments about Slik Slik Quick Release Plate for 700DX, Pro Ball Head:
Holds great,so much so its hard for me to lift an 11 1/2lb. lens off of the tripod.
Comments about Slik Slik Quick Release Plate for 700DX, Pro Ball Head:
Easily supports the heavy camera and lens (D80 with 18-200 lens) fits in my pack so no need to always remove. Unobtrusive when using the camera without the Tripod.

Have one of these releases on all of my equipment, it's the best I have ever used.

Have ben doing some macro photography of flowers here in the AZ desert. Have a quick release plate on each of my cameras, very easy to switch from one camera to the other without having to figure out the right direction to mount the quick release and camera on the tripod.
