The Manfrotto tripods require an extra to be acquired head. The 234RC-tilt head is designed for monopods; I use it with the 680B. Is made of the (small) bother to read the manual, so the operation is very easy. Easily the head is screwed on the tripod. The plate can be found quite easily and screw to the body of the camera or the tripod mount for unlocking with a quick release. A plastic pad to the plate prevents scratching, a retractable handle ring facilitates tightening. A simple print mechanism the plate snaps back "bomb-proof" a. The tilt angle can be adjusted easily and turn back up easily - you do not need the 3D Einbein yes, because the third dimension by the inclination of the stand itself is specified. Robust material and easy handling characterize this head - ideal accessory for a Manfrotto monopod.
