Manfrotto quick coupling plate 200PL

The Manfrotto quick release plate 200PL does exactly what you expect from the product. With the handy screw, the 200PL can be quickly and easily attached to a spotting scope or camera. Due to the anti-rotation pin, the spotting scope or camera does not rotate relative to the coupling plate. The ease with which the camera or scope can then be attached to a tripod and removed again is ingenious. This allows the respective device to be safely transported separately from the tripod.

The only downside is that with the older version, the anti-rotation pin can fall out of the quick release plate over time. This took me 7 years, so it's really negligible. Super quality for a good price. Highly recommended for any nature lover who uses spotting scope or camera.
