I would recommend either the Photek TRI-X-2500 Tripod Extender, B&H # PHT2500, or the Manfrotto 131D Lateral Side Arm for Tripods (Black), B&H# MA131DB, for your stated needs.

I have a Fujifilm X-T3 I want to be able to snap in my camera on the ball head. Will this allow that to happen or does it have to screw in?
Asked by: mike
This is a quick release had but not a snap in, more or less a slide in plate, just as quick and easy.

question

How does it behave in extreme cold Temperatures? (-40F and below) Does the ballhead know still work?
Asked by: julien S.
I've only used mine in Wisconsin during the winter. In January it gets into single digits and no problems so far. The last time it got to minus 40 here was in about 1994, and I was using film at that time and had no tripod.
