Q: 5. what is the specific quick release plate needed for this?

A: This is the plate that comes with the head and is the exact replacement: Manfrotto 500PLONG Video Camera Plate B&H # MA500PLONG.

Q: 6. Is this the same plate as the 701 and 501 fluid heads?

A: It's a little different, it's longer and works a little differently. But they can be used on this head. I have the 701 also, and I can use the 701's plate on this head. But the plate that comes with this head is longer. Also, this had his top loading, while the previous heads were rear loading, as in, you slid the plate in from the rear.But to answer your question, no this is not the same plate.But to add to it, yes you can use your old plates on this new head and vice versa, they are interchangeable. Hope that helps!

Q: 9. will this head work with the Manfrotto BeFree Compact Travel Carbon Fiber Tripod? I see the tripod has a ball head included but was wondering if that could be detached and this fluid head in place of it?

A: I just bought the MVH500AH and mounted it on my Befree (Aluminium). It fits perfectly and I can't complain except for the fact that the Befree may be a tiny bit too light for video work in the field (but I'm really satisfied so far). As for your carbon fiber, I wouldn't know; maybe it'll be too light or maybe you'll find a way. But to answer your original question: yes it will work with the Manfrotto Befree.

Q: 10. It has the knob on the right to tighten the plate and make sure it doesn't fall. Does it have a another safety lock to make sure the camera and plate doesn't fall off?

A: There is no safety lock on the plate itself. The Manfrotto 500 head has a knob that you twist and lock then you push down to allow the plate to slide on and off. When the knob is tighten and upright, the plate is locked in place.
