I wonder if the knob might be replaceable
L60? Sorry, I'm calling it the Mini-Cube! And this thing is tiny---smaller in hand than I thought. Almost too small for the RRS TVC-24. Limited geared movements, but not a bad trade-off for size, weight and portability. I'm going to try and use the Mini-Cube without an additional leveling base to keep the total tripod package smaller and lighter.
The Cylinder does not roll off the tongue like the Cube...Arca Swiss really missed a marketing moment (what were they thinking?:loco
Ahhhhhhhh , yes . Both dealers list the L60 since yesterday although not in stock yet .
Arca-Swiss also has a similar solution called QuickLink.:ROTFL:
The Graham Welland tripod quick release system is basically a RRS Dovetail that is attached to the bottom of the tripod head. A RRS lever quick release is placed on top of the tripod legs. This allows you to quickly swap between different tripod heads without fiddling around and looking for the appropriate tools to remove and attach different heads. In Graham's case, this could be very time consuming when your collection of tripod heads exceeds that of many finely stocked camera stores (no joke). And hence, the Graham Welland tripod quick release system was born. :loco:
The RRS Dovetail 40 fits the AS Cube. It also fits the new AS Mini-Cube (LS60) perfectly. See, Round Dovetail Plate

This is why, no matter how tempting they look, I have never gone to a quick release system. By the time all the plates and clamps have been bought, there is a significant amount of metal added to the bag. My p0 has a simple tripod thread adapter, making a bit lighter than the L60 leveler. Although, a heavier bag might give me a better workout--I could certainly lose the weight...
Hello KenArca Swiss really missed a marketing moment (what were they thinking?:loco
I've also gone back to the AS FlipLock on my Cube. I don't mind it at all. It would be nice if the screw knob on the Mini-Cube quick release could be better set apart or differentiated from the other knobs.View attachment 131898

Not Ken so you'll have to do with me
Last I spoke with Ken he was busy getting ready for his Iceland trip. I can however answer the question as I have the same setup and yes it is the RRS 40 dovetail. I have one on each of my heads. They work great and quick to remove and setup and very stable without adding much height or weight.
are worth looking at.
