We have had this tri-pod for years but were unable to use it due to the loss of the quick release. But when I found it at Adorama I purchased two. Now we can use the tri-pod again.

Found an old Velbon Tripod but the QR attachment is missing so it's relatively useless. This is a great find and will probably buy some more for other cameras.
