I urgently need to get a Manfrotto quick release plate for my Glidecam 2000 pro. I'm mounting my t2i, and I'm curious to know which quick release plate i should buy. Which do you guys use and would recommend?

thanks

just buy a cheap grip off ebay and leave it on your glidecam, 18 bucks well spent

Does the giottos 621 not fit with 5/701's too? Says it does and it's significantly cheaper

20 bucks isn't enough for me to buy a cheaper brand, IMO stick with manfrotto

exactly. That quick-release is what is keeping my camera on the glidecam...I'll pay the extra $40 for the Manfrotto to make sure my camera doesn't go flying off...
