Manfrotto to arca swiss

[carmot]

Hi all my tripod heads are manfrotto and I was wanting to get a L bracket but don't want the manfrotto style has anyone used the conversion clamps and were they any good

Manfrotto heads ending in the part number suffix Q6 are ARCA compatible, I have one of these https://www.manfrotto.co.uk/xpro-magnesium-ball-head-with-top-lock-plate and use it with a standard ARCA compliant bracket

I converted a Manfrotto head with one of these https://www.amazon.co.uk/Adapter-Replace-Manfrotto-Compatible-Release/dp/B01MDK6P1T
Bought an Arca clamp that screwed straight onto it, no problems and much better than the clunky Manfrotto clamp.

Thanks for that, I'm just doing exactly the same, converting a Manfrotto head to arca...
