Damn, the diameter of my GT4543 LS is 70mm, guess it won´t fit.Not sure, but the series 5 clamp diameter is 85mm.
John, Bob did mine as well. And I just shipped him my non-geared-pan Cube for an RRS clamp. PCW is also where I purchased my P0 Hybrid; when I bought it, I had Bob install an RRS 40mm QR clamp. Works like a charm. And he and his shop are a true pleasure to do business.I had Bob Watkins at Precision Camera Works do this mod on my non-geared Cube and was wondering whether this is possible with the new geared panning version. Thanks.
John
Sure did. Sorry for the crummy IQ, but wanted to post this quickly.Greg, did Bob at Precision Camera install the RRS clamp on your p0 Hybrid? I was under the impression (from Arca-Swiss US and Bob at Precision) that the p0 Hybrid couldn't be retrofitted with an RRS lever clamp. I've got the p0 Hybrid with the classic Arca-Swiss screw clamp.

Haven't heard of this before. I use an RRS leveling bowl and d4. Would this leveler offer anything more than my current setup? Just curious.[/URL][/IMG]
This is the Arca Swiss Leveller that was ordered as separate item Arca Number; 860102.
It's the latest version. It took almost 8 months to arrive but is available.
It just takes for bloody ever as once ordered it is placed in line for manufacture.
The Novoflex and Leveller combo is small, holds an xf with 120ls solid (so far ), and is a very fast to setup.
I saw Dave Chew take his apart and boy am I glad I ordered and waited!
If there is slippage then it shouldn't however remember what you are speaking of. it is not 8 lbs but the leverage weight which is much higher than 8 lbs when a view camera is extended.I'm considering the P0 Hybrid, and now I'm hesitant because of your issue with the loose knobs. It seems like you can't win with a geared head, because they always end up going out of spec, with loose gears, play in the gears, etc, especially the Manfrottos.
I've been looking at the Cube and the geared D4. I saw one review of the geared D4 stating that it slips with an 8 pound 4x5. That doesn't sound too good. Has anyone had any slippage with their geared D4?
Just got a reply from arca swiss factory, it will be available in a couple of weeks, they are actually working on the final version and trying to make the price...The AS LEVELER 860102 was put out of production quite some time ago and is currently not available on the european market . The AS magasin in France have it on their list but , but nothing else .
No price , no description , no date of delivery .
Perhaps RodK knows a bit more .
Oh sure. Right after my destruction of a P0h they make theirs available again. Coincidence? My conspiracy theories are coming together.Just got a reply from arca swiss factory, it will be available in a couple of weeks, they are actually working on the final version and trying to make the price...
Well you could have read about it here in this very thread or seen it on our Instagram page or simply sent me an email with your thoughts about your project. The Leveler has been in the works for a while but behind the GP heads in the production schedule.Oh sure. Right after my destruction of a P0h they make theirs available again. Coincidence? My conspiracy theories are coming together.

At the very least, Dave, your efforts have been immensely educational and definitely entertaining. And if anyone does ask or question your masculinity, there is no doubt in my mind that, "Dave es muy macho."Oh sure. Right after my destruction of a P0h they make theirs available again. Coincidence? My conspiracy theories are coming together.

What exactly is it and how is it used? Sorry if this seems like (or is!) a stupid question, but it is not apparent from the photo.
This is the box, part number, name, barcode, stick on Arca Swiss white(ish) label.
This one has the "classic clamp".
I keep telling people it's real!
It's not an illusion!
Honest!
Ordered through B3K in Toronto.
