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. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth it *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 19 November 2013* 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. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 7 November 2011* Let me start this review by saying this is typical Manfrotto quality. That is to say solid and perfectly engineered. You could tie an ocean liner to this head and do no damage!!Now this is were the mistake comes in on my part. My technique with a monopod entails the monopod foot being slightly forward from vertical or slightly back, close to my body with my right foot acting as a stop. This means the camera is slightly pointing at the sky or the ground. This is fine as long as the quick release plate is mounted on the camera with the long side at 90' as in the product shot. You can adjust the camera perfectly via the head. You cannot take portrait shots like this as the camera can only be pivoted up or down. In order to take portrait shots you must dismount the camera from the monopod, loosen the quick release plate on the camera, turn the plate 90', tighten it and remount onto the monopod. My mistake when ordering it was assuming the plate was square so no loosening was neccessary, just a dismount-mount of the camera. I'm in the process of ordering Manfrotto 494RC2 Ball Head with Friction Control which is the same as I have on my tripod.As I have said the product is A1 in all respects. Indeed I have not sent it back as I now use it as a do it all attachment for my flash off camera setup. Also, being Manfrotto it is the same quick release plate as my tripods ball head. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well built, but can take a bit of getting used to. *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 20 May 2015* 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. ## Frequently Bought Together - Manfrotto 234RC Swivel Tilt Monopod Head with Quick Release Camera Plate - Manfrotto 014- 14 Rapid Adapter converts 5/8-Inch Stud to 17mm Long 1/4-Inch- 20M Thread - EMART 10ft/300cm Light Stand Photography Heavy Duty C Stand with 4.2ft/128cm Holding Boom Arm and 2 Pieces Grip Head， Adjustable Stainless Steel Tripod for Video, Moonlight, Parabolic Softbox --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hk/products/49117607-manfrotto-234rc-monopod-tilt-head-with-quick-release-black](https://www.desertcart.hk/products/49117607-manfrotto-234rc-monopod-tilt-head-with-quick-release-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart Hong Kong* *Store origin: HK* *Last updated: 2026-08-25*
