Axler QRA-501S Reviews

Works like I needed

I really needed this on my monopod. It works well. It's a little stiff to get my camera off. Hopefully after a little use it will be easier.

I have two of these and they work well with my existing Manfrotto plates at half the cost of a Manfrotto quick release assembly.
