Does not disappoint

I had held off on replacing my Gitzo ballhead forever--decades, to be honest--because I'm a cheapskate and will put up with something so long as it still works, even if it is inadequate. Finally, the Gitzo quit! It won't tighten down enough to hold my 4x5, so it goes. It had a good run. Now, the Arca Z1+. This thing is beautiful. I've desired one for years, and it does not disappoint. Only a bit more heavy than my little Gitzo, but this thing is solid. A quick spin of the knob and it clamps down like a pit bull. Despite its strength, it offers finer control. I can easily set an amount of tension that allows me to position the camera without any play in the head, then lock it when I'm ready. It's dreamy.

Its lightweight build, at just 800 gr, ensures ease of handling and portability, perfect for photographers on the move. The tripod head's 1/4"-20 mount thread size guarantees compatibility with a diverse range of tripods, further enhancing its versatility.

The Quick Set MonoballFix Device streamlines the process of attaching and detaching your camera, allowing for swift and secure setup changes in the field. This feature, coupled with the Monoball Z1+'s reliable performance, makes it an ideal choice for those who require quick and efficient transitions without sacrificing stability.
