I looked at the RRS plates as well. They seem comparable to the Kirk quality and price-wise, but the Kirk plate for the Mamiya seemed a tad lighter than the RRS ones, as they have more cut away.

Prior to ordering the Feisol head (decided why not get it when I get the tripod), I was looking at getting the Kirk head and plates, as the Kirk head was closer to my price range than the RRS head.
