        I put this adapter on a monopod and it works great. It's very simple to install on a tripod or monopod, and it works flawlessly.

        Comments about Acratech Quick Release Clamp:

        I purchased this clap to attacked to my Manfrotto 488 ball head which had an existing 3/8" stud.

        I am very impressed with the fit and finish of this part. It went on right the firs time and have had no issues to date. The screw works exceptionally fast and allows for fast camera attachments. My only regret is that I did not buy one slightly wider.

        I use this on my monopod to make lens changing a snap.

        Why have QR plates on everything if you need to remove them to use a monopod, just make life easier and get a QR clamp for your monopod too.

        Quick and easy to use and clamps firmly.

          Comments about Acratech Quick Release Clamp:

          I bought this to add an Arca-type QR system to my existing Bogen Midi ballhead (#488, I think). I attached it to the existing camera platform using red Loctite. After letting it cure, I put it through its paces and it's fantastic. Precisely-manufactured, the quality of finish is superb, operation is as simple as can be, and I can't imagine how it would ever fail or become unreliable except through user error or massive damage to it. Great choice for retrofitting ball heads that one cannot remove the camera platform from before adding a QR clamp. It opens far enough to allow one to set a plate in directly from above rather than slide it in from the end (which is tedious), and the knob tightens quickly.

          Great product, you can't go wrong with it if it fits your needs.
