QS-39 Quick Release Plate for Specific Vanguard Tripods and Heads

It fits perfectly with my 8 year old Vangard tripod.

It fit my tripod perfectly. Good quality product

The Vanguard QS-39 Quick Release Plate is an excellent fit for my tripod. Installation was simple, and once locked in, it feels very secure no wobbling or slipping. The build quality is solid, and it gives me confidence when mounting my camera. Highly recommend for anyone needing a reliable replacement plate!

I bought a Tracker 4 tripod and wanted an extra quick shoe. Contrary to another review that says this is too small and gets loose, it fits quite tightly for me. The heads it fits in have a "secondary safety lock for security" (quoting from the side of my tripod's box) which WILL keep it from falling out, but doesn't hold it tightly at all. There is a knob on the side of the head to lock it in tightly, and it works fine with that tightened. The only difference between this one and the one that came with the tripod is that the main screw has a slot it slides in for adjustment of where the camera sits, and there is no locator pin. I also wish the main screw had the flip up piece for added torque instead of the coin slot, but it isn't a huge deal. I'll probably leave the quick shoe attached to the camera all the time anyway. That is the whole point of getting an extra one isn't it?

Compré la placa de liberación rápida Vanguard QS-39 con la intención de usarla en mi trípode, pero lamentablemente no fue compatible. Aunque en las especificaciones parecía que iba a funcionar, al probarla noté que no encajaba correctamente con mi equipo. La realidad es que la placa está bien construida, se siente resistente y de buena calidad, pero no me sirvió para lo que necesitaba. No la devolví, así que simplemente la guardé por si en algún momento me resulta útil con otro accesorio o cámara. Si estás considerando comprarla, te recomiendo verificar bien la compatibilidad exacta con tu modelo de trípode antes de hacer la compra.

The Vanguard SBH-100 Small Magnesium Alloy Ball Head comes with a Vanguard QS-39 ¼" Camera Screw Quick Shoe , as does the Vanguard SBH-250, and obviously extras are available here. If you're using a DSLR or compact digital camera, along with almost any 35mm SLR film camera, this is the correct shoe for the Vanguard SBH-250, SBH-100, SBH-50 and SBH-30 Ball Heads. But the product specs are completely wrong for the Vanguard SBH-100, as it lists the QS-41 and QS-43 quick shoes, and these are wrong. See the images that I posted on the product page for further details. The Vanguard QS-40 3/8" Camera Screw Quick Shoe is the same product, but with a 3/8" camera mounting screw for many medium format and most large format cameras. Both the QS-39 and QS-40 quick shoes are what we refer to as 'coin tighteners'... they do not have a knurled knob or an attached finger tightener loop that you can lift to install or remove the camera from the quick shoe. As far as which Vanguard tripod the QS-39 and the QS-40 quick release plates will fit depends on the tripod head, and as a user and owner, I had to do some online research to figure this out. Either of these will fit the following: > Vanguard SBH-30 Ball Head > Vanguard SBH-50 Ball Head > Vanguard SBH-100 Ball Head > Vanguard SBH-250 Ball Head As far as tripod kits go, the VANGUARD Alta 263AB 100 kit does use this Vanguard QS-39 ¼" Camera Screw Quick Shoe, as I own it, and it was for this tripod with its SBH-100 Ball Head that I ordered it. Just remember, the QS-39 is a quick shoe with 1/4" camera screw, and the QS-40 is a quick shoe with 3/8" camera screw. The Vanguard QS-39 ¼" Camera Screw Quick Shoe works perfectly with my SBH-100 Ball Head, and I can recommend it for any owner of the heads listed above without reservation.

Fit perfect

Although it is not on the list of corresponding tripods, this is also the correct quick release plate for the Vanguard Alta Pro 263AT. I got a second camera and I didn't want to be switching the plate from one to the other. Every camera should have its own plate!

Perfect. Exactly what I needed ass stated by the description in the title. Recommended if this is the model you're looking for.

Macht problemlos das, für daß es gebaut wurde.

After the original one was stolen ~10 years ago, it's great to get my old vanguard tripod working again. Cheers!

Lo compré como segunda mano porque para la función que va a cumplir no era necesario gastar el dinero en una nueva. Una vez abierta no hay distinción con una nueva. Perfecto.

Hasta el momento me ha servido bastante. Lo uso en un tripie Vanguard Tracker 1 y perfecto.
