The Gitzo GS5360AS Dovetail Quick Release Adapter can be fitted onto most Gitzo heads (current exception being the G1177M) and replaces the standard adapter or disk. It can also be used with most other brand ballheads or pan/tilt heads that don't feature a built-in quick release.
The GS5360AS opens particularly wide, making it capable of accepting Gitzo's "B" and "C" type plates, as well as any of the multitude of Arca-type plates available from many other manufacturers, such as Acratech, Arca-Swiss, FLM, Foba, Novoflex, NPC, Studioball and Wimberley, etc.

Comments about Gitzo GS5360AS Dovetail (Arca-Type) Quick Release Adapter:
I've been searching for a simple transformation to make my Gitzo head more compatable with ARCA/Swiss plates.
Unfortunately, this device does not, as advertized, fit most Gitzo ball heads. It is incompatable with the bubble-ball head design. Surprizingly neither Gitzo nor B&H had compatability info. It took buying and shipping this to figure out that it wouldn't work.
But even if this worked on my ball-head, I would probably return it anyway. Its really huge and the thumb-screw extends too far, making it a really awkward addition to the head/tripod.
My advice - consider a different manufacturer's ball head if you need ARCA/Swiss compatability.
