Neewer® Black Aluminum Alloy Quick Release QR Plate Adapter with 1/4"-3/8" Screw and Bubble Lever for DSLR Camera Tripod Monopod Stabilizer Ball Head

Really pleased with the way you can snap in and out the cameras shoe.

Seems solid and looks well engineered. Does what I hoped it would do - provides a quick way to attach (and detach) camera to tripod. No slop when attached and it seems to be secure - don't want the camera falling off!Good value.

A really robust quick release clamp. Like all Neewer products this is, if anything, over engineered, but hey I'm not complaining in the slightest. It is a brilliant bit of kit and takes all the faffing about when detaching my Nikon, or re-ataching it to my tripod. The bubble levels take all the guesswork out setting up my shot. So easy to use I am kicking myself for not getting one sooner. I also brought one for mo bro. We are both very happy bunnies. Thank for a speedy flawless service, a highly recommend seller in my eyes.

The L shape water level part protrudes slightly beyond the metal because of which the clamp does not sit plush with tripod's head. This is not an issue if you are using an adjustable head. The water levels are useful.

Neewer quick release plate adapter, the best I have come across. Quick release, but very secure. Bought three of these, for various support's and lenses. Didn't really need the levels, but they come as part of the system. Just the right system for no mess Changing of equipment.

It’s also very large and fiddly to release but feels sterdy

well engineeredthe locking is positive with no discernsble playthe safety works as it should - engages when the plate locates ( I have other similar where you have to engage the safety separately.all in all a great systemunfortunately it is not compatible with Man. 323 so I have had to return it. Should have read the Q&A

I bought this to make it easier to mount and dismount my SLR to my gimble and it works a treat.Another great product from Neewer!

I bought it to attach a paint box to a tripod, it works great, snaps in place and is very sturdy. It screws onto my Cameron tripod easily.

Durch seine ebene Grundfläche für meine Zwecke am besten geeignet

Tengo varias placas de liberación Neewer ya que son muy funcionales y duraderas, seguiré comprando para mir otros producto que tengo

Sobre el producto, muy buena calidad, estable, seguro y buenos materiales. Pero muy mala política comercial, no venden las zapatas por separado y si necesitas 4 ó 5 para un solo trípode has de gastar el triple (lo normal seria zapatas sueltas por un tercio del precio del kit). Consultado al vendedor no pueden ofrecer zapata suelta. Consultado a Neewer dicen que no las venden sin el adaptador como si hacen otras marcas. Buen precio por no coger primera marca per oque sale caro si necesitas varias zapatas, tenlo en cuenta.

I was previously using cheap Chinese-made clones of the Manfrotto 577 style quick release, which were very rugged and worked fine, but they ended up being a bit clunky for my taste and were proving mechanically problematic to use with certain camera rig setups. So I started shopping around for a new quick release system and it came down to either Arca Swiss or something in the style of the Manfrotto 323 RC2. I’ve always found Arca Swiss to be a sleek and professional design, and the biggest benefit is that it currently seems to be the most popular and ubiquitous system out there. So you can find tons of Arca Swiss style accessories from many different manufacturers at very cheap prices. The RC2 style QRs on the other hand are not quite as popular, so you have fewer options.I did a ridiculous amount of debating and weighing pros and cons of each system before finally settling on this Neewer version of the RC2. First of all, it’s clearly superior to the Arca Swiss in terms of the ease and *quickness* of attaching and releasing the camera on and off of the base, which can be done in a fraction of a second with a single hand. Secondly, the moving parts of the Arca Swiss are apparently more prone to getting jammed up by dirt if you’re using it outside a lot. And lastly, the little safety stoppers on the bottom of Arca Swiss plates prevent the camera from sitting flat on any surface when it’s not mounted on the base, which I knew would drive my OCD brain crazy.So I determined the RC2 style option was the right choice for me, but I needed to stock up on at least 6 of these and wasn’t about to drop over $200 to get the official Manfrotto versions. On the other end of the spectrum, you can find unbranded Chinese RC2 clones for very cheap, around $7-10 each, which claim to be durable all-metal construction. However I saw too many negative reviews about poor quality control from the factories or the locking mechanism getting worn out and loosening up over time. Also, many of these cheapos have a little safety lever or bolt that sticks out from the bottom of the base, preventing it from sitting flat or mounting properly on many tripod plates or other mounting surfaces. So I decided to stay away from those and go with a good middle-ground option, the only one of which I could find was this Neewer model.I was able to get the 6 that I needed for $100, which I thought was very reasonable, and I can fortunately say that I’m very happy with the quality of these. They’re just light and compact enough without feeling too small or flimsy for reliable professional use. I have no concerns at all about using these with expensive camera gear (granted I use micro four thirds cameras and lenses so I’m not attempting or necessarily recommending using these with big heavy rigs). They’re apparently not quite as heavy-duty as the Manfrottos, which is understandable given the cost difference, but seem well built and sturdy. The safety on the release lever is a better design than even the Manfrotto in my opinion. And the bubble levels are a nice addition. Another feature worth mentioning is that the screw that comes on the QR plate can be tightened onto the camera by hand, with a flathead screwdriver, or with a hex key. And when tightened down properly, the grippy rubber surface on the plate does a good job keeping the camera from coming loose and rotating.One caveat is that these are apparently not compatible with other RC2 style QRs. The size is slightly different. I guess Neewer wants to lock you into their own little quick release ecosystem. But that’s fine with me because I didn’t already own any of these from other manufacturers. So if I ever need any more I’ll just buy more of the Neewers.All-in-all, I believe I made the right choice in purchasing these for my particular situation. They’re a great quick release option at a good price. Highly recommended.
