## Description

The heart of Kessler's quick release system, the Kwik Release Receiver is custom-machined to hold up to 50 lbs without slipping. Like all Kessler products, the Kwik Release Receiver embodies elegance in design. The Receiver was created to be versatile, modular, and strong, and can be used for mounting cameras, sliders, and accessories. This camera mounting system was designed to be used with everything from small DSLRs to larger cinema rigs. Its many mounting points means it can be used for pretty much anything, and can be mounted to pretty much anything, from tripod heads and stands, to sliders, cranes, Steadicam rigs, and other stabilizers. It was also designed for ease-of-use: unlike most quick release systems, which feature cumbersome locking knobs or pins, the Kwik Release Receiver utilizes an ultra-strong cam lock that, once tightened, secures anything attached to it with zero slip. It is top-loading, which is perfect when space is precious. This, along with its seamless integration with the entire line of Kessler Kwik Release products, will save time and money on set when both are at a premium.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will manfrotto plates fit in this quick release system?**
A: Thanks all.  I went ahead and purchased this cinevate quick release instead so that it is compatible with all my plates. http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/used/788716/?gclid=CjwKEAjwpYeqBRDOwq2DrLCB-UcSJAASIYLjUK0uRLjkvyJAVcZZ_dRhWiOeriQwLH7N3AU43QeBoxoCaHfw_wcBCrazy that a company that is so consumer friendly as kessler wouldn't make a quick release that is compatible with what most people use.  They mention that their's works with the arc (?) standard but still, make it wider and then adjustable to work with everything.

**Q: Are the this 2nd version plate and base compatible with the first version? I have the 1st version and want to make sure they are compatible**
A: Yes they are compatible. I use both V1 and V2 on my gear.

**Q: Does this come with the plate as well?**
A: The Kwik Release V2 (Receiver Only) does not include a plate.  It is compatible with Arca Swiss style plates and each unit is tested to be compatible with plates from Kessler, Really Right Stuff, and Wimberly to ensure as much cross-compatibility as possible.

**Q: What country manufactures this item?**
A: Kessler products are made in the USA in Plymouth, Indiana.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bought Two, Would Replace Everything with More
*by I***E on September 13, 2016*

I've bought two of these for my video recording rigs. I really love them both. I'm using all Arca-compatible pieces on all my gear; my camera has a long Arca-Swiss plate on the bottom. One of these receivers is on my Glidecam, and one is on my teleprompter. It was necessary to use the Kessler for these instead of less-expensive Sunways (or similar) because this is the only receiver I can find that doesn't have a knob on the side. Both the Glidecam and the teleprompter have flat plates that preclude using any receiver with a knob. Both of these Kessler receivers have mounted on the plates solidly and easily with the hardware provided. And my camera mounts and locks in them lightning fast, and is held in place securely. Even on the Glidecam there's no movement whatsoever on this thing. They are heavy duty and built to last. The price initially made me balk, but both units have been well worth every penny.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great system to move quickly
*by P***R on January 8, 2016*

I got a few of these. Being able to quickly go from gimbal, to slider, to tripod in seconds changes the way you work. These are built incredibly well, American made, with top notch customer service. I've been buying products for a long time from this company and they do not disappoint. Worth every penny.

### ⭐ Wrong product description
*by D***Z on October 5, 2022*

I received a V1 kwik release receiver. Plus, it was obviously a used product since it had a lot of scratches at the bottom of the plate. Unfortunately, this receiver only works for slimmer arca swiss plates, and I don’t have any that would fit in it.
