Manfrotto 200PLARCH-14 RC2 Rapid Connect Architectural Mounting Plate with 1/4-Inch 20 Screw (Gray) Reviews

Customer Rating:
Summary: Works just like you'd hope
Comment: It attaches very securely to camera and prevents any twisting. Fits my XTi perfectly. Does appear to be identical to the 3157N as stated, other than the lip. For bodies, get this; for lenses, get the 3157N.

The only downside is that the camera doesn't sit as nicely when off the tripod. That seems to apply to any quick release, and I'm not sure what they'd do to fix it.

Summary: Great plate that does what it is supposed to.
Comment: I bought this plate about 10 years ago for my Nikon N8008. It fit and worked great. Have since used it on my D70 and my D200 w/grip with no problems. I did have to fip the plate around to get it to fit the D200 with grip, but it worked fine. The best part is this plate keeps my camera strait on the tripod even when I switch to vertical w/ a heavy lens.

Summary: useless for lens collars...
Comment: Cannot be used with my shortest lens collars OR D200/300 camera bodies... I am am now OUT of the RC2 system... Too bad, really liked the hydrostatic ballhead otherwise...
