I got a Bogen/Manfrotto 3030 head from eBay recently. It is quite nice and meets my needs. There is a little discrepancy however. The quick release plate has a locking mechanism but I can't move the clamp lever far enough so that the lock can be engaged. I don't see how this could ever have worked. It either looks like a bad design flaw or a massive misunderstanding by the user. This isn't a big deal because I don't think the clamp is going to disengage since there is a significant amount of friction holding it in place. But I'm sure curious as to what I am doing wrong here. Any suggestions?
