Bought this, along with the Manfrotto 290 monopod as a gift tandem. Only been used once or twice, but the report I got was that it was really easy to use and very effective in switching horizontal/vertical.

Does exactly what I want it to do. I use it to attach a microphone to a Manfrotto monopod when recording oral history interviews. The quiick release reduces my setup and takedown time. The ability to tilt he head enables me to direct the microphone for optimal puckup.

Excellent Tilt Head

I attached this particular head to a monopod because I wanted the same manfrotto quick release that my tripods have. I also wanted to easily rotate my camera from landscape to portrait mode. This head accomplished both at a very reasonable price. It's sturdy and easy to use.

Very easy to use

Does exactly what you think it does . Teams up well with the Wimberly mono gimbal head as well . Locks down tight and holds a Nikon D850 with grip along with a Tamron 150-600 g2 quite nicely

Yes, the screw on the top of this head will fit point and shoot cameras. It uses the industry standard 1/4 -20 thread size which is the size photo cameras use.
