Is the quick release plate on the Magnus compatible with any other fluid heads out there?

You have to measure the size of the QRP. Still if you think the fit is going to be tight, it could still be half a cm smaller because the head is loose a little; it tightens with a pressure system around the plate. What I did is I looked on Ebay/Amazon for a QRP that was the same dimension of the head's cavity to receive the plate.

Not that I have seen or know of. It seems to be slightly larger than the ones I've tried it with.

best if you skip this type of head and look for arca swiss compatible. If you're using the F2.8 version might look into Smith-Victor BH5. Arca compatible and can handle large loads.

Hi Brad, (1) It does not have a quick release head- basic 1/4" threaded stud with plastic turn key attached under the mounting plate. (2) I tried to remove the head but it looks like I might damage the plastic ring that goes around the center post. But after removing the threaded bolt and that tightens the pan-lock it looks like the head could be removed by by inserting some kind of chisel/tool between the pan-lock ring and expanding it out of the groove at the top of the center post. I'm just not convinced that the plastic pan-lock ring won't break in the process. So yes you could remove the head and I assume Slik has other heads that would fit this post. Good luck- Michael M.

Yes. I have both the "Giottos MH621" and the "Ravelli's AVT Professional Video Camera Tripod" (both are excellent values). The plates ARE interchangeable. TIP: take a few minutes to see how to adjust the tightening lever for the Giottos MH621 Quick Release Adapter-I just started using it and was frustrated...until I read the directions.

Don't know. What I do know is that ALL of the various Manfrotto/Bogen quick release plates fit ONLY ONE holder. They seem designed to absolutely not fit anything else.

This may be helpful, I bought a quick release plate TY-50 to replace the old one.Here's the link, SIRUI Arca-type Pro Quick Release Plate TY-50

I have a manfrotto (501) quick release on mine. It's screwed onto the 1/4-20 but then I have a QR plate onto my ball head. So I can pop it on and off when necessary. But if ur ball head has a 1/4-20 on it you can go directly to the slider carriage on the slider if you wanted. So, yes you can.....

Manfrotto 501PL Sliding Quick Release Plate. I have this on multiple tripods, monopods and stabilizers for quick camera change outs.This ball head was used for my slider and works well.

the 3130 micro video head , is the same as the 128rc head. that quick release plate will work. no adapter is needed . but it comes with an adapter screw, which is a little larger ( in the pkg.

The Pro version of the capture clip has a manfrotto option, but I don't know much about whether it's compatible with your setup or not (I'm an Arca guy). If you go to Peak Design's current kickstarter, they're upgrading the quick release so that you don't have to choose a dual-manfrotto/arca plate or a plain arca plate when you purchase the clip. It's got screw-on shims that change the angle of the bevels on the plate, depending on which setup you're going to use.

Manfrotto 323 RC2 Rapid Connect Adapter with 200PL-14 Quick Release...I would but a couple if these. I haven't found the plate alone but this ate will work with your all head and then you will have another quick release base to put on another tripod or monopod or stand. These quick release plates changed my life!!!

The plate attaches to your equipment via a screw (heavy wire handle to twist on by hand), and snaps in and out of the head via a lever. If that is your definition of a quick release plate, then the answer is yes.

Sure. I use a Manfrotto 234RC Monopod Head Quick Release on mine. Works like a charm. Still cannot believe the great price on such quality.

Yes, it does come with the quick release plate that fits the standard 1/4" threads.

The base provides fluid pan just like the manfrotto monopod. You can use the fluid pan in the head as well. I have both the benro and manfrotto models, and functionally, they're very similar. The quick release plates are interchangeable between the brands as well (for the s4 head).
