Can it be used with Manfrotto system?

It will fit on a Manfrotto tripod/monopod of course, but the base plate is ARCA and therefore Manfrotto plates will not fit in this unit. The jaws screw clamp onto the plate, unlike the Manfrotto which snaps into position.
327303
Yes It can fit on any head if the plate will screw into the clamp. I did a job yesterday with the Manfrotto tripod.

Cannot be used with their traditional quick release plates. The quick release plates that are compatible with this are "Arca Swiss" type of plates. Believe they do have one type of plate that is compatible, but all of the plates I had in past that came with their various heads are not not.

no it can not be used with the Manfrotto system. The clamp you are showing is from the Arcs, Kirk and other systems that follow this system. I use this system myself and find it the most versatile of all..

QR plates manufactured by Manfrotto, Gitzo and Bogen are generally not compatible with any arca-swiss type clamp, regardless of whether said clamp is made by Sunwayfoto, Kirk, Wimberly or Really right stuff. The geometries do not match and there may be manufacturer-specific locking mechanisms. Take a look at this explanation from the Wimberly Photo Gear Site: http://www.tripodhead.com/products/product-details2.cfm?product=Bogen-Manfrotto. This may be changing as Manfrotto, U.K. has recently released an arca-swiss compatible QR plate.

No. It is Arca-Swiss compatible. You will need an Arca-Swiss plate on the bottom of your camera. It can be attached to any any tripod including a Mafrotto but it cannot accept the Mafrotto quick release plate.

No. This is Arca Swiss. If you need adapters for the Manfrotto and Arca Swiss mounts, look at Custom SLR's M-Plate.

I would think that the quality and design of all the Manfrotto equipment would suggest that it is compatible. Everything I have purchased from Manfrotto has worked together, nicely. Hope that helps.

Nope! I wouldn't risk it. This thing is crap. I have the 290 series Tripod and Monopod from Manfrotto and am very satisfied. Not worth it to skimp a few bucks.

Yes but you need to buy the gopro tripod adapter. It converts the gopro mount to a standard tripod mount.

Yes, it has a standard mounting screw on the top which will allow any Manfrotto head w/ screw hole on the bottom to be mounted onto the monopod.

Yes, it has a standard mount for tripods. I've used it with my manfrotto tripod.

Not sure with Manfrotto you have, the grip works great with my Manfrotto 190CXPRO. The main thing is that the tripod has a screw mount.

I have never tried it, but I don't see why not. It uses a standard EF mount.

I don't believe it will. The release lever on this piece relies on the bottom area being open. You would be mounting this on what looks to be a larger plate, so you would have no area below the adapter to swing the release because of the plate, and you'd have no area above it because of the camera body. If, by some miracle, the Manfrotto plat is larger than the Cowboy platform you'd be okay. Just understand you add another level of complexity when trying to balance your setup. Once it IS set, it should afford you the ability to mount and dismount the camera quickly and return to the same balance point.

I put the Manfrotto quick connect-disconnect on this monopod and it works great. I don't think the ball head will work.

This appears to be compatible with arca swiss mounts - it not compatible with Manfrotto

One the two I have, you can fit a Manfrotto plate on it, but you can't fit its plate into a Manfrotto head. There are some cutouts on the Manfrotto plate that are missing on these plates. It looks like some careful work with a file might fix this. But, I would not plan on them being interchangeable.

Hello Antonette. I guess you can but I am not so sure how safe will your camera be without being attach to the Manfrotto plate you know?. I have never used it that way. To be safe I would recommend you write to BlackRapid an e-mail and confirm with them how safe it is to use this FastenR alone without a plate ok?. Mine works perfectly with the Manfrotto PL200 plate. It is very flat and very very secure!!!. Good luck....Aaron...

I have absolutely no problem. I use all Manfrotto tripods, monopods, heads, and QD plates, and they all work fine. You did not say if the thread was too small, too large, or not cut correctly. The standard is 3/8 and you may have a tripod with 1/4-20, if so you can buy a thread adapter at any camera store, or at Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/Manfrotto-088LBP-Adapter-4-Inch--8-Inch/dp/B001CZUSUE/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid;=1376920249&sr;=8-5&keywords;=tripod+3%2F8+to+1%2F4-20+adapter

I do not know, have you looked at the Manfrotto web sute from memory ittells you which models are compatible if not look at the dimensions of the foot and dimension of the monopod. send Manfrotto an email asking the question

Yes. I am actually using a Manfrotto 324rc2 pistol grip head on mine. This tripod is light duty though. I might consider the next size up.

It should work with any tripod as I have used it on my other tripod without any problems.
