Review on πŸ“· Manfrotto 234RC Monopod Swivel Head with Quick Release and Bonus Replacement Plates for the RC2 Rapid Connect Adapter by Eric Smalley

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very nice little swivel head, but the mounting plates are a bit lazy when used with my old ball head mount.

Very nice little swivel head. I use it on my monopod so now it fits the ball head on the tripod. I've stocked my cameras and telephoto lenses with mounting plates so it's easy to change monopods or quickly stop when you're moving quickly. Attach one of the mounting plates to the camera backpack strap with a nut and washer. So now I just slide the monopod into the loop and then attach it to the attached mounting plate and it's secure. Fast and easy. I've noticed that the mounting plates aren't identical to the ones I bought a few years ago and I'm not too comfortable using them with a ball head. However, old mounting plates work well with this head. That's my only disappointment.

Pros
  • Durable test results
Cons
  • Hard to tell
