Would my camera be able to mount directly onto the plate, or would I need to get a separate quick release?

It can mount directly to the flycam but I strongly recommend getting a quick release plate so you don't have to rebalance it everytime you want to use it.

You can mount it directly on the plate, but I don't recommend that method. The free quick release plate will be good enough or you can use your own.

It can be mounted directly onto the plate as It comes with its own quick release. Its not the best quick release but it get the job done. The plate has some holes that you will be able to screw the quick release onto. And the screw for this is provided also.

You do not need an additional piece you can attach your camera directly to the plate. You can use a quick release plate if you wish..........VideoGearDirect

The bottom has a hole where you can screw in a standard tripod screw, so you shouldn't have a problem using it with a quick release plate.

I think this would only be an issue if the plate had a positioning stud that sticks into a hole in the base of the camera. This plate has no such stud. The tripod screw is centered on the plate, and the plate can lock on to the grip in four different directions.

Right at the bottom of the bracket there is a hole where it can be attached the quick release tripod plate. Also there is a set of hollow screws that come with the bracket that you can use for other setups. Screwdriver was included in my bracket

Yes the quick release plate will fit it and the camera isn't too heavy, but I would not put any heavy lenses on the camera. I usually half the load capacity of tripods for reasonable use, so for this one I would say 4-5lbs should be just fine.

Hello Antonette. I guess you can but I am not so sure how safe will your camera be without being attach to the Manfrotto plate you know?. I have never used it that way. To be safe I would recommend you write to BlackRapid an e-mail and confirm with them how safe it is to use this FastenR alone without a plate ok?. Mine works perfectly with the Manfrotto PL200 plate. It is very flat and very very secure!!!. Good luck.... Aaron...

Yeah. Not enough clearance even for the short end of the camera. You could likely use a long Arca type plate to hang the camera out either the front or the back. Even there, a fat lens might get in the way. You could possibly use a combination of a long Arca type plate and an adapter that takes any other plate you have. Rube Goldberg lives! See Manfrotto 323 RC2 Rapid Connect Adapter with 200PL-14 Quick Release Plate and Desmond 5.5-Inch 140mm 140 QR Lens Plate Quick Release Arca Swiss Compatible for example.

Manfrotto 323 RC2 Rapid Connect Adapter with 200PL-14 Quick Release...I would but a couple if these. I haven't found the plate alone but this ate will work with your all head and then you will have another quick release base to put on another tripod or monopod or stand. These quick release plates changed my life!!!

I'm using vanguard and velbon tripod. Both quick release fit this plate. So I believe manfrotto's quick release will fit.

Yes, there is a tripod mount on the bottom of the plate, although it can tend to swivel if not screwed down tight. I kept my tripods quickrelease plate on it.

It just screws in to the quick release plate that comes standard with most every tripod

depends on your tripod. i have a manfrotto tripod and attached manfrotto quick-release plates to the slider so i could pop it on and off with ease. but this slider has the capability of attaching at the ends as well as at a point in the center.

No. The quick release is smaller on this tripod. You might be able to use a Manfrotto head.
