I picked these up in October absolutely randomly as a suggested purchase from B&H. Did the research and bought one. I now own 4. On my tripods, they have an additional screw at the bottom to secure the system to the tripod or other bases. Additionally, there is a small screw inside the quick release mount that locks it to the tripod head. Last week I covered an event and continuously had to break down and set up in a new location. Being able to remove the entire head with the camera allowed me to keep the tripod smaller and lighter as I walked through the event. Got where I needed to set up and locked it on. My biggest concern is the lack of positive LOCK click when you twist it to tighten. Honestly, it’s a bit of an oversight in terms of security/safety. It is fairly easy to twist it so one day it MAY fall off.

I love your videos! They aren't the typical how to's but you offer great, fresh insight into builds. THANK YOU!
Wow, that’s very cool. Thanks for the video.

Looks like you need a better tripod, it looks as stable as a jelly.
