Robust and Sturdy, Quick release base is a plus although the safety pin is a little odd.

Comments about Manfrotto by Bogen�Imaging 3229 Swivel Tilt Head with Quick Release:
Like pretty much anything by Bogen, this is a solid piece of equipment that is truly professional grade. Still takes me a second to figure out the quick release at times but that is a small price to pay for the security of knowing your camera is locked the monopod. I've had other heads release unexpectedly so this head is a welcome addition.

Comments about Manfrotto by Bogen�Imaging 3229 Swivel Tilt Head with Quick Release:
Makes a wonderful addition to my monopod (676B) and the RC2 quick release is great for lightweight use.
I recently used this at at outdoor concert in addition to a tripod with the same quick release mechanism and was very happy with the convenience it provided.

Nice swivel head with a good quick release. The only thing missing is vertical tilt but sitting on my monopod that doesn't matter :)

Comments about Manfrotto by Bogen�Imaging 3229 Swivel Tilt Head with Quick Release:
I have owned a couple of these heads and used them with Manfrotto 3231 (682B) and 680B monopods in conjunction with Canon 10D and 40D cameras with lenses up to 70-200 in size. This pretty much tests the limits of the head I have had no problems or noticed signs of wear or fatigue. The quick release function is handy and works smoothly. Just be sure you engage the lock.

I use it with the Manfrotto tripod and it works perfectly. It's very sturdy and works perfect with the rotator head that I have to attach it to for work. Great buy and price!

Comments about Manfrotto by Bogen�Imaging 3229 Swivel Tilt Head with Quick Release:
Great build quality, providing great value, especially for an amatuer photographer on a budget. Many tilt heads at this price point are not built nearly as well. I like the quick-release plate since it works interchangeably with my quick-release tripods made by another manufacturer. Of course it also works perfectly with my Manfrotto 676B monopod.

Used for photographing with a monopod. The quick release and swivel mechanisms work well; at least I have yet to experience slippage or sagging. This head is not light.
