Manfrotto Tilt Head 234RC for Monopod

I haven't had the opportunity to use this yet, but, I do have it on my monopod. It has a great feel to it, and I'm looking forward to using it. Using the quick release plate that came with it allows me to quickly connect to my monopod or my tripod, which is an older Manfrotto/Bogen model. Good addition to my gear.

It works ok after you get use to the locking mech, but the first few times if you are in a hurry to get a shot it might make you wish you got the 360 swivel head.

I use Manfrotto products almost exclusively. This head works very well. Since it is quite inexpensive, I can forgive the lack of elegance in manufacturing, but a little more attention to appearance and smoothness of operation would be helpful. Good value for the cost.

Works well with the 50mm lens tha came with my Canon T5i. But it does not like the 55 - 250mm zoom. The tightening mechanism loosens very quickly.

I purchased this to put on top of my window mount as as instructed please do not do that it only has one range of motion once its mounted to the window mount junk
