"I purchased this product to work with my Glidecam HD 2000 and a Sony HVR-A1U. It has saved me a lot of time and attaches quite nicely to the Glidecam not-so-quick release plate.

"The reason this is the best investment I have made is because I use this on my Glidecam 2000 Pro.

"I put one of these on every single one of my tripod heads and monopods. Now I can mount my cameras on them quick and easy.
