i forgot to mention, you can add a 3rd party Arca-Swiss-style clamp to a
Wimberley head. i have been thinking about it, but haven't gotten around to
it. the only complexity is the mounting screws to fasten the clamp and i
have been lazy.

the more expensive one includes an Arca-Swiss style clamp while the
cheaper one doesn't. if you don't use the clamp, you will directly attach
the lens to the head with a hex key. with the clamp, you attach a
Wimberley plate to the lens and then clamp the lens on the head. it will
take you a minute or so to attach the lens each time without the clamp.
