VCT-80AV 3.3 5 3 3
Lost the quick release plate. where to buy I lost the quick release plate. I am unable to find it in the market. Can you anyone please help in finding the alternative or the place where I can buy it. This tripod comes with just one release plate. November 26, 2011
Awesome Product Super smooth operation, easy to hook up. Panning and tilt operation very fluid for the price. I am interested to see how it does in the freezing weather, as we do a lot of winter filming. Also want to see how well the LANC cord is constructed as we barrel through the woods with our equipment. That exposed cord be tough so it doesnt get ripped out. Overall, I am super pleased. Previous reviewer stated that they couldnt get it to work with a remote, I never saw that as an option on the specs sheet when I reviewed it. Therefore, I dont believe it is capable of doing it. Top notch product so far, extremely pleased and I plan on purchasing two additional ones. Anyone know where I can just buy the fluid head with the LANC connection and panning handle???

Need Help I purchsaed this remote control tripod to use with my HDV-1080I CMOS camcorder. I have not been able to get the camcorder to power remote control. The only plug that comes on the remote plugs into the AV/OUT on the camcorder. Looking for help in getting these products to work together. November 11, 2010
