Arca-Swiss QuickLink Reviews
Expensive solution for simple problem! But great….

I own several tripods and way too many nice tripod heads. Swapping heads around is a pain, slow, and risks missing shots . . . The Arca Quick Link system is elegant, incredibly secure, FAST, beautiful. A perfect solution at an astronomical price. Another benefit is the ability to quickly disconnect an expensive head like an Arca Cube and keep it protected while in transit.

Precision design adds quick setup to any tripod. I'm using it with a Gitzo GT3533LS which already has a removable center post, but the Quick-Link makes head removal or exchange much faster.

What is it?
What is it?
From Arca-Swiss's website: Combining a mounting plate for the tripod and an insert plate that attaches to the tripod head. Attaching and detaching the tripod head becomes a snap. The installed
plates can thus be left permanently on the tripod or on the tripod head. By means of a solid bayonet, the tripod head with its insert plate is placed in the mounting plate and securely fixed by a knurled rotating ring.

Regarding the locking mechanism .... When placing the head on the tripod, does the cameral have to be turned to lock it in place or does the 'locking ring' get turned to lock down the head to the tripod? Can the camera then be turned and accidentally unlock the head from the tripod?
Hello Joseph,
No, you do not need to turn the camera or the tripod head. You screw the Quicklink disk on the bottom of your tripod head. Then you screw the Quicklink receiver on your tripod. When you install your tripod head in the receiver, there is only one possible position: when the 3 pins of the receiver enter the 3 openings of the Quicklink disk. Then no rotation of the head is possible. Finish by locking the head by turning the receiver ring. Here is an interesting review of the ARCA-SWISS QuickLink.

I'm interested in using one of these on an RRS TFC-34 tripod. Is the receiver unit's diameter wide enough that it would interfere with the ability of the tripod legs to raise into their most splayed locked position? What is the receiver's actual diameter where it makes contact with a tripod's apex?
The diameter of the base for the Arca Swiss Quick-Link Tripod Head Quick Release Set is 2.75 inches, so that may interfere with the legs on the TFC-34 are raised.
