Works Well

I’ve been using this for about 6 months. I love it, I just wish they also made one with two Arca connectors instead of Manfrotto/Arca

Antirotation pins fall out when rotating the plate.

This product has a terrible design flaw. When the arca-swiss clamp is loosened to rotate it so it accommodates a long lens the anti rotation pins fall out. They are very small and easily lost. These pins should screw into place so this doesn't happen. Promediagear sent me new pins but these also fall out. Perhaps some blue loctite might help but this shouldn't be necessary. I would warn any interested in this plate to be very careful when rotating the arca-swiss clamp.

See any errors on this page?

Will this work with the Manfrotto 502AH?
