I lost the quick-release for this Tripod. Is it possible to get a replacement from somewhere?

They seem to sell that part separately http://zeikos.com/copy/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=298 best would probably be to email info@zeikos.com to find how to buy it.

No, you can't. Also, the quality of this product is not so good. One of the legs of my tripod has broken in less than a month of light use.

You should be able to contact them and get one. I was able to order the parts I lost.

Not sure what you got there. This is a stander tripod. Works with my canon point and shoot,my large Canon camera and my power shot sf 40sh . Are you missing the quick release ?

This pistol grip comes with the QS-60 quick release plate. As far as we can tell, that's the only plate currently compatible with this tripod attachment. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact our sales department at 800-991-3350 EST. We thank you for your time and consideration!

I had the same problem (Failure of the clamp) and just bought another tripod.

As far as I know the only way to get a replacement Sima quick release is to buy a complete new unit. While I've heard that Sima made (or makes) the quick releases for sale separately, dealers don't stock them preferring to sell the higher priced full units which, until recently, were less expensive for the full package than others were charging for the quick releases alone. The Sima was/is an outstanding unit at a fair and reasonable price but others of equal quality have hit the market at a lower price and some of those offer the base with the quick release along with separate quick release units. The Simas are getting harder to find. I bought two from the last vendor I could find who had them in stock. Looking back, I probably would have been smarter to start all over again with one of the newer lower priced packages. If you've only got one base and one missing quick release, this is certainly the best way to go since you would likely have to buy a complete Sima package if you can find one. I think Sima may have discontinued this product because the usual sources no longer have them in stock and don't seem to know when they'll have them again. Strongly suggest you start over with something else.

If it's too late to return ithe tripod, the camera mount is universal and sold separately. The piece isn't expensive at all.

Ditto what Julia said. Mine definitely has a quick release. I LOVE this tripod too by the way. Great buy!

The tripod is actually manufactured by Ravelli. It is their "AVT" model tripod. Try contacting them at support@ravelliphoto.com for further information on ordering parts for the AVT model tripod.

Hello,I am not familiar with this tripod.Have you contacted the manufacterer? Also try the many knowledgeable photo stores in NYC. They seem to know everything. I am sorry I was not able to give you a specific answer.I had to use a Xacto knife to make mine fit. Frustrating and dangerous!

Mine was missing too. False advertising or factory issue. Rather than going through a time consuming, troublesome returns / refund, I bought the "Case Star Octopus Style Portable and adjustable Tripod Stand Mount / Holder (XL) for iPad Mini with Case Star Velvet Bag" for 5.99 which will screw right on and gave this a 1 star for missing parts. I like the options of holding my ipad mini or my iphone then flip it with the tripod vertically or horizontally.

Try Amazon, also Olympus customer service, or parts department. Hope this helps.

I'm not sure but if you look at the plate you might see a part number. Otherwise reference here. http://www.tripodquickrelease.com/Manfrotto_Quick_Releases.htm

Quick Releases are very manufacturer and tripod model specific, so there is very little chance that this will fit your tripod. Sorry. . .
