Arca-Swiss Monoball p0 Fliplock Quick Release Overview

The Monoball p0 With Fliplock Quick Set Device is a sturdy, lightweight ball head for photography by Arca-Swiss. The typical tightening screws have been replaced by a collet-style lock ring. Ergonomic and intuitive, it provides comfortable single-handed control, while the other hand is free to manipulate the lock-ring. The ball head is equipped with a gravity-compensation system; by way of accruing friction, it prevents forward tilting of heavier cameras and longer lenses.

Compatible with Monoball Classic systems
Features Fliplock quick-release plate

Arca-Swiss Monoball p0 Fliplock Quick Release Reviews

Excelelnt for large format cameras

I bought this ball head for my Toyo 4x5 camera after it's heaviness caused my previous tripod head to suddenly tilt without warning. Once the plate is secured this head is very secure and easy to use. My only problem with it is that the quick release plates are a little hard to slide in, but expect I'll get better with more practice. I do like the plate design with so many options. I bought a 100 mm long plate so I coule use a flash mounted on the same tripod.

great ball head

Paired this with the Gitzo GIGT1545T Traveler Series 1 Carbon Fiber Tripod. Great combo! This ball head works smoothly and very study. Just follow the directions to know how to properly adjust and use the fliplock. Have had the larger Arca-Swill ball head for years without issue. Plan to have good experience with this one too. Looks to be all great quality.

This flip-lock head doesn't seem to accept ...

This flip-lock head doesn't seem to accept regular Arca swiss plates. Is there an adapter so I can use my generic Arca plate?
Asked by: Tony
The 'adapter' would just be another Arca Swiss plate that is compatible with the head, which, at that point, you would just use to mount your camera directly to the Arca-Swiss Monoball p0 With Fliplock Quick Set Device Ball Head. You can find compatible plates under the accessories tab.

What plate would I need to use this with a Lumix GH2? (By the way, the product in the picture is different - that is the Classic Quick release, so not the one I'm asking about)

question

Is it possible to remove the clamp on this head? I found this fliplock clamp really hard to use and I would like to replace it with a RRS clamp.
Asked by: Sen L.
I am not having a problem with it; it is a wonderful ball head. Maybe you have a defective one.

question

I have a RRS BA9 plate for Sony A7R III. Does the RRS plate fit the clamp of the arca-swiss P0 ballhead with fliplock or I need to get the one with classic quick release?
Asked by: Dean C.
I just sent the arca-swiss PO ballhead with fliplock back since I could never get it tight on either of my plates...the arca-swiss one or another off brand. There is a wheel to adjust it but no matter the direction I turned it I could not get it to tighten then it completely came unscrewed and fell apart. I guess I turned it too far. It was spring loaded and it would not fit back together so I sent it back. The locking mechanism is also very hard to use. I would seriously advise you to the the classic quick release version.
