    Looks like an exact copy of the Arca head. hmmm.

    Unfortunately it doesn't look like they've yet taken the opportunity to equip it with adjustment knobs any bigger than those on the AS.

    Despite the ethical considerations I have to say I might consider one if the price was right (<$400) and the quality was reasonable. It does seem a shame to see someone's design work so blatantly ripped-off though.

    The price is around $800, still decent though.

    No, I had my Korean friend translate it for me. And we are still waiting their response.

    I don't have the Korean language pack installed on my computer at work, but will see if it is on my system at home if you are still interested. I can read Korean, but my skills at the language are quite rudimentary.

    Thanks for the offer, my friend has translated for me already, I asked her to send a message to the factory to figure out how to order, We are still waiting the response. I will update as soon as we hear back from the factory. (They claimed to respond the message within 2 days, but nothing yet) The price is around $800 depends on the exchange rate.

    Not decent enough for me to buy one. Maybe I was expecting too much and maybe the quality will be better than I expected.
