Manfrotto 325N Reviews

Works great for my Vinten3AS and 10 AS

I am a fan of Vinten tripods and heads — I own the Vision 3, 3AS, and 10AS. I needed to adapt them for use on tripods with geared center columns, and this adapter is a big help. It works with both 75mm and 100mm bowl mounts. I'm giving it four stars because the 75mm bowl I received had many surface scratches. It doesn't affect functionality, but it clearly isn't brand new!

Great product, but mine had a minor/major flaw.

Product was really difficult to set-up and I thought I was going crazy. It didn't come with any instructions nor are there any readily available online. I reached out to the Manfrotto and never heard back from them. In setting it up, there is a washer that helps tighten everything so it doesn't wobble, and that particular washer was manufactured about 1.5mm too thin, so when I would mount my head onto this, it would wobble and render the entire setup useless. So using my mechanical intuition (thanks to growing up building Legos without instructions) I was able to MacGyver a solution where I folded up a thick stock business card until it compensated for the gap in the washer. But if it weren't for the washer being manufactured slightly under specs, then it would be fantastic. A really solid feeling product.

Hi. Has anyone used this adapter with a heavy load? I’m looking at using it on a slider with around 12kg on top. Thanks.
Asked by: Russell Scarf
This really comes down to the head you are using. This allows you to adapt either a 75mm or 100mm Ball Head to a tripod with a flat base. There are some 100mm heads that have a high load capacity, such as the Manfrotto 509HD. This can handle up to 29 pounds or 13kg. https://bhpho.to/2JmCQV7

question

Trying to get my Manfrotto 526 head up onto my 3/8'' male slider connection. Is this a good piece for bridging the 2?
Asked by: Basil
Since we have not tested this combination, we will offer the opinion that we do not see any reason it should not work.

question

Cartoni FocusHD will fit with Manfrotto 325N Video Adaprer Bowl? to use with flat head tripod and sliders.
Asked by: Ahamed Batcha
There are no reports of that combination. That being said, the Cartoni FocusHD has 100mm ball and this Manfrotto has a 100mm bowl. It is our opinion that this should work.

What are the 2 brass threaded parts for? I have the earlier model of this and it did not come with them...
Asked by: Phillip
The two brass threaded parts are for use within the 325N when a tripod ball head offers a different screw size when mounting a tie down.

question

Would this work with a Benro S8? I'm concerned about the length of the Benro's stem.
Asked by: Thomas
Well, I just bought this to use my Sachtler Ace head on a slider - won't work. The head stem is too short and won't mount on this. Sending it back. So, no, you can't assume it will work on every head.

question

Would this allow me to mount a Sachtler M head on a Libec slider?
Asked by: IVAN
Should work. This basically a female-to-female coupler. Realize that you can't level the head and it will ride high on the slider, acting like a mini-riser. Great for mounting a ball-head on pretty much any flat-plate.

question

Will this work with the Sachtler Ace XL head?
Asked by: Samuel
Im not certain it will work compatibly with that unit. Check online posts / blogs, YouTube and with Manfrotto or Sacthler. B&H video sales reps are very knowledgeable too. Or check all screw mount diameters, to see if the compatibility is or isnt possible. Hope Ive answered your question concerning this mount.
