Weird shaped tripod head, but it's fast and easy to use. Always nice to have a backup, especially when you're constantly misplacing things like I do. No complaints.

We have 2 Alpen scopes on SILK tripods and 1 scope hit the ground because the original quick release plate screw was no longer able to screw to the scope. I purchased 2 of these replacement plates and the screws are removable unlike the original. We replaced with longer screws and now our scopes are securely fastened to the tripods. Well worth the cost. Just wish the original plates had longer screws to start with.

Love having the extra mounting plate. By having the extra plate I do not have to move it every time I change cameras or lenses.

Having a second plate is very handy. This setup works very well. Can take camera off the tripod very quickly to catch shots handheld if need be

This is identical to the one that came with my Slik Tripod, and works perfectly.

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.

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.

Holds great,so much so its hard for me to lift an 11 1/2lb. lens off of the tripod.

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.
