Manfrotto's current model would be the 498RC2. If you don't want to pay that price, Adorama's Flashpoint F-3 ballhead supports the Arca-Swiss (a widely used standard) quick release plates and holds very well.

I have not been disapointed with my Vangaurd SBH-250 (external link)! It's 44lbs rating is more than I will ever mount to it! Plus, the price was right!!
