Feanor, thanks for the help. Note that quick release plate and qucik release clamp are 2 different things - you mount the release clamp to the top of your ballhead, and you mount the release plate to the bottom of your camera, after doing that, you can easily put the camera on your tripod quickly by attaching the release plate to the release clamp. I'm sure you know all that but again, I'm just making sure since most ballheads don't come with a quick release plate nor with quick release clamp. So, are you telling me that the Feisol comes with BOTH the plate and the clamp included?
