Review: Worth it - You don't need a head for a monopod, just fasten the camera to it using the tripod screw and it will work. Two issues though, 1) that takes time, is inconvenient if you are on the move and 2) with the camera screwed to the monopod, you can only use it in landscape mode. This head is specially designed for monopods and provides the only two functions you need; a quick release plate and the facility to tilt the camera from landscape to portrait. All the other movements are done by tilting the monopod sideways and backwards and forwards. A pan and tilt or ball head are just overkill and simply add more weight. The only downside to adding this head to your monopod is that it does add weight. However, like all Manfrotto equipment, this is beautifully engineered to last. It is reassuringly solid when you have a few thousand pounds worth of heavy camera/lens attached to it.
Review: Well built, but can take a bit of getting used to. - I wanted this so that I could easily cope with two bodies on my MM294, and to give support for the occasional landscape panorama. Its certanly well built, but fairly heavy. It assumes you are going to use it with the release lever on the left and the tilt control on the right, opposite to what the picture shows, which makes removal of the camera simple, but tiltling awkward. That's not so useful, at least for me, as I like to hold my camera by the grip on the right, while adjusting the tilt with my left hand, with the head as shown. That wouldn't work with some video cameras as the extra pin would be in the wrong place. Also as shown, the head works well with a long lens with its own support, such as my 40-150 F2.8, but the plate is at right angles to a camera body. You can put the plate in line with a body, but then if you use both supported lens and a body-supported camera then the tilt control and quick release are going to be in different places. So, all in all it takes a bit of sorting out how to use it most effectively. Hence four rather than five stars as its maybe not quite as flexible as it could be. Gives great support though: really strong and takes weight well. Feels really solid and secure.

## Features

- A user-friendly tilt head designed especially for monopods

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I use this with a Canon 500D?**
A: hello, the answer is yes as long as you have the standard tripod thread at the bottom of your camera,there is not a problem. i use it on my canon 50D and my two other fujifilm cameras, so they are very versatile. i hope this helps.

**Q: Will this fit non-Manfrotto monopod?**
A: yes, i use a benro monopod and is great, the tilt head has both 3/8ths and 1/4inch fit female socket, might need the 1/4" to 3/8" Camera Convert Screw Adapter for Tripod Monopod depending what size your monopod male screw is, adapter`s are very cheap to buy on amazon, normally get 3 or 4 for around £2, just make sure it screws right in to the tripod head and should be flush fit for stable mounting.

**Q: Is this head robust enough to take the Nikon D850.
Thank you**
A: I have used it without issues for a Canon 5D4 (890g) and a 100-400mm (1,390g) lens. I use it on a single point monopod to take the weight off my wrists, and it is really good.

**Q: I have been given a manfrotto monopod. However, the male thread on it is too big for my cameras.Does this device solve that?**
A: I agree this is a bit confusing as it's not clear when you are getting the monopod exactly what the tread sizes are. If your monopod is too large for the camera you have a 3/8" thread. The monopod head (which is an excellent bit of kit) usually has a 3/8" thread in the bottom bit (check this when you order). The detachable top plate should have a 1/4" male stud to fit your camera OK.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant and easy product.
*by M***Y on 1 April 2017*

I originally owned this about a year ago and, which was completely my own fault, I couldn't take to it and just couldn't get it to work for me. I believe I bought it because i thought I needed it and never gave it a chance. A few weeks back I realised why I needed it which comes with getting more camera experience. I completely love this now. Brilliant product! Very sturdy, quite a bit of weight to it but that's not a bad thing in any way & so simple to use it. I mostly use it on my Manfrotto Monopod. I leave the quick release permanently on my DSLR and the bracket on my Monopod. Click the pin out to the left which unlocks the lock, slip the black bracket out to the left and slide the camera off. Place the camera back on, the plate will click back in and automatically move the slider back in them move the pin back for total locking.
