I need recommendations for a monopod head, preferably one that accepts Arca-Swiss quick release plates. Thanks.

I recently bought a used RRS head and loved it with my 600mm. Bought a cheap monopod and walked all around lagoons and gulf shore in Florida.

I use the RRS MH-01, and I'm very happy with it.

I have been using the Sirui L-10 for three years or so and really like it a lot. Good build quality, smooth and stable. I use it to support a Nikon D7000 with grip attached to either a Nikon 80-200mm f2.8 af-s, Nikon 300mm f4 af-s or Nikon 80-400mm af-s and handles the weight of these combinations with no problems, it could hold a lot more.

See my post under another thread mentioning the Sunwayfoto tilt head. All depends on how much weight the combo is intended to support. If cost is no object, then get a RRS.
