[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 267447, member: 13090"] It arrives on Monday... I'll try to remember to let you know how I like it. While I like the "snap in" feature of the 496', and while I can't call it a "defect" [I]per se[/I], I'm finding the secondary lever is not operating as it should or, I guess you could argue, it's not operating as I would [I]like it to[/I]. Further, and in all fairness, it is something that could be "corrected" by paying close attention to the secondary lever each and every time I mount/dismount my camera. That being said, it bothers me how easy I found I could get the QD plate to release completely without having to engage the secondary release lever. The AirHed uses an Arca-Swiss type mount... Maybe it's all just a matter of what you're used to? [COLOR=#ffffff]... [/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
