I can confirm this too. I use the simplest Bogen tripod and the simplest
3D head (I do not have the model numbers in my head), and I like the 3D
head a lot (better than a ball-head). I shoot mostly macro, so quickness
is not my primary concern. Because of that I can live without a quick
release, but I still miss it, and I am thinking of buying one of the quick
releases that one screws on top of the head permanently.
Cheers,
