Can this plate be used with Manfrotto 701HDV head?
Asked by: Thomas
Yes, the Manfrotto 501PL Sliding Quick Release Plate will work with a Manfrotto 701HDV head. In fact the Manfrotto 701HDV head came packaged with a 501PL plate originally.

question

Does this plate fit the Manfrotto 516Pro head?Thanks!
Asked by: Anonymous
The Manfrotto 501PL plate is not a good choice for the 516 head. You will want to choose the Manfrotto 357LONG plate instead (B&H # MA357PLONG).
