airdrew20012001 0 #1 March 5, 2002 Got Velbon quick release plates for my still camera and they rock. I also use a D-Box and being able to put the video in the d-box with the still not crowding it rocks. Plus, I got down from a tandem load and went to shoot the last couple of stills of the passanger and her support group and being able to pop the still off with the quickness was the bomb.

flyingferret 0 #2 March 13, 2002 Hey guys, I am just curious because I will probably end up getting quick release plates anyway. But isn't there at least some snag risk using these plates? Considering the handle, etc.Malachi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Considering the handle, etc.------------------I agree. I took the QR plate off my still as it had some MAJOR snag points. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
airdrew20012001 0 #4 March 13, 2002 Not the way I have mine set up. The only worry I sometimes have is that there is now a gap between the top plate and the bottom of the camera. I set the actually releasy handle so it is flush with the back edge of the batrack top plate.Drewfus McDoofus Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
