There might be some kind of licensing issue but why don't these 3rd parties find out that Manfroto and Arca Swiss own the quick coupler market. It would be 5 plus stars if it was only compatible with SOMETHING. If you have more than one camera and/or tripod, ALL should work together. This head is very well made - just Manfroto quality, maybe even better. But what good is a quick assembly if you have to remove the base plate every time you change the tripod? I think the manufacturer tried to do its job on the "mini" head. I really like the feel and performance of this head, I just want it to be somehow compatible with my other gear. EDIT: Maybe my tirade was a bit unfounded. I have a strange bullet device that claims to be Arca compatible. It seems to fit this head. As I am married to Manfroto I have not and should not check compatibility. After reviewing the product description I see that this is indeed the case when Arca compatibility is claimed. I have changed my star rating accordingly.
