Anybody has this ball head (ATH-A02) from Amvona know where I can get some extra quick release plates for it (or perhaps something compatible from another brand)? Thanks much!

I have never seen Amvona products in any true camera shop. Skip Douglas

I just never take it out with the lens installed on it, that is what I meant by "I never used it".. LAD wrote in post #8434209 ![]() Thank you for the responses guys, especially mufutau55.

Eric2007 wrote in post #8434656 ![]() Hey LAD, Let us all know when you get the plate and whether or not it fits correctly. I have Amvona's ATH-A03 head which uses the same plate (I believe) and I am in need of another plate as well. If yours works, I will order some too!

I thought the 50" may be too small if the original one that came with the tripod is 60", I took out both the original and this new alternative and measured them to be exact measurement.. hence I got the 60". Next time I go to B&H, i will get the 50" copy and test that too, if it does not work, I can easily return it as I got to B&H store very often. Watchout for the update.

I think the 50x50 one might be a closer match, but I'm not sure. Anyhow, these work fine for me.
