The Sima Quickonnect quick release is useful on the Olympus E-P2 because it is small enough so that it doesn't block the battery/memory door. This is handy when you need to change the battery or memory when shooting on a tripod or monopod and don't want to unscrew the QR plate from the camera. I bought min Quickonnects a few years ago from Microcenter.

It isn't as quick to insert or remove the camera from the quick release base as some other QR adapters I've used. I also wouldn't trust it if I had a heavy lens attached to the E-P2. You will need a coin or flat head screw drive to attach the QR plate.
