I shoot a lot of sports action, always still pictures, and had always used ball heads. This head pivots, but does not rotate. Long story short, this head works great for the right applications, and its quality construction and reassuring heft makes it a pleasure to use. Moving the monopod instead of the head to compose pictures quickly becomes natural. Panning to catch the action is never a problem -- just rotate the whole monopod. I did find that there was some tendency for the head to slightly unscrew from the tripod at these times, but only a partial turn, and never so much as to affect stability. I find it quick and easy to swing the head 90 degrees to either side for portrait-oriented pictures. The head stops at 90 degrees, so I don't have to fiddle around locking it or trying to hold it in position if I need to take a quick shot. This would not be a good head for movies or if you aren't typically shooting with the the lens fairly level (like capturing birds in trees). Thus I wouldn't use it, for example, for basketball or volleyball shots. But for most field sports, cross country, baseball, tennis, etc. --- it provides better support and ease of use than a ball head. This is a serious piece of hardware, and requires a serious monopod -- a lightweight ball-head would be a better match for a lightweight monopod. Review: Another high-quality Manfrotto product - I ordered this after reading all the glowing reviews of Manfrotto products, and it lives up to its reputation. It is solidly built, and each of the segments locks up solidly. You really could use this thing as a walking stick, as some suggest -- it's that solid. The tilting head is also great, and easy to use. It has a quick release plate that attaches to the camera, making the camera easy to remove from the monopod. In addition to using this with my DSLR, I use this monopod with a pair of medium power binoculars to look at objects in the night sky. It's not as steady as a tripod (of course), but if you lean against a something solid, you can view celestial objects well enough (may not be sufficient for really serious sky watchers, though). This is a great monopod, easily stowable, and so more likely to get packed and used than most tripods. Very happy with it. ## Features - EASY TO USE: A user-friendly tilt head designed especially for monopods. - VERSATILITY: Versatile enough for both vertical and horizontal formats. - COMPATIBILITY: Comes with a standard thread attachment for complete compatibility - SAFETY PLATE: Includes an essential, safe quick release plate ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000JLM50I | | Aspect Ratio | Unknown | | Audio Recording | No | | Best Sellers Rank | #72 in Tripod Heads | | Brand | Manfrotto | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Camera | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 1,637 Reviews | | Folded Size | 24.8 inches | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00719821287599 | | Has Self-Timer | No | | Item Part Number | 710694 | | Item Weight | 0.6 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Manfrotto | | Manufacturer Part Number | 234RC | | Maximum Weight Recommendation | 5 Kilograms | | Model Name | 234RC | | Model Number | 234RC | | UPC | 718122521135 702971965202 719821233855 719821287599 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Manfrotto - **Color:** Black - **Compatible Devices:** Camera - **Folded Size:** 24.8 inches - **Global Trade Identification Number:** 00719821287599 - **Item Weight:** 9.52 ounces - **UPC:** 718122521135 702971965202 719821233855 719821287599 ## Images ![Manfrotto 234RC Monopod Tilt Head with Quick Release, Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61rG+-a8APL.jpg) ![Manfrotto 234RC Monopod Tilt Head with Quick Release, Black - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61EJHl0hetL.jpg) ![Manfrotto 234RC Monopod Tilt Head with Quick Release, Black - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/21dTS0LSW6L.jpg) ![Manfrotto 234RC Monopod Tilt Head with Quick Release, Black - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61UZIQCebcL.jpg) ![Manfrotto 234RC Monopod Tilt Head with Quick Release, Black - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61wN2R0Je-L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Head for the Right Applications *by S***; on October 26, 2011* Before ordering, I wasn't sure if I'd like this head on my monopod.

It will rotate the camera from landscape to portrait mode (to either side). Works well, but do realize it does NOT tilt forward and back -- you are supposed to tilt your monopod for that direction. A few negatives: Not all Manfrotto heads use this quick release plate, so it MIGHT NOT be interchangeable with other Manfrotto heads. The head has no vertical stop so you need to use your eyes to level the camera and then snug the knob down. There is no level on the head so you need to use your eyes to level the camera for all shots. The head is a bit large and heavy. The knob sticks out on one side and the quick release sticks out on the other making the head quite wide and preventing it from slipping into (or out of) a backpack or camera bag easily. I just carried this around Europe for three weeks. I tried using it for night shots, but the long exposures really required a tripod. I really needed a small tripod for selfies too. I tried to use the monopod for long telephoto images of the tops of cathedrals, but I couldn't tilt the monopod back far enough to be helpful. Overall, the monopod was entirely useless on this trip, but that is not a fault of the head. I will be backpacking a few weeks later this summer and might take the monopod then, we'll see. ## Frequently Bought Together - Manfrotto 234RC Swivel Tilt Monopod Head with Quick Release Camera Plate - Manfrotto 014- 14 Rapid Adapter converts 5/8-Inch Stud to 17mm Long 1/4-Inch- 20M Thread - EMART 10ft/300cm Light Stand Photography Heavy Duty C Stand with 4.2ft/128cm Holding Boom Arm and 2 Pieces Grip Head， Adjustable Stainless Steel Tripod for Video, Moonlight, Parabolic Softbox --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ro/products/1144423-manfrotto-234rc-monopod-tilt-head-with-quick-release-black](https://www.desertcart.ro/products/1144423-manfrotto-234rc-monopod-tilt-head-with-quick-release-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart Romania* *Store origin: RO* *Last updated: 2026-05-27*
