    Can anyone recommend a fluid head for my existing tripod, preferably one that will just mount to the Arca Swiss ball head on my existing tripod...

    Preferably in the cost effective range... Answers on the back of a postcard

    The feedback has been incredible. I'm blown away by all the advice...

    In the end I chose a Benro S2, with a supernifty 501-Acra Swiss plate. just in case anyone else looks up the same problem in the future.

    It looks like this is a common issue, with not so many resolutions... Arca Swiss may be the (closest to) standard in Photography, but Manfrotto have been mucking around in video. Gimbals such as the Ronin S & Moza Air 2 also suffer from this... So The ProMediaGear plate seems like a great solution.

    They must all be away at the same convention... probably discussing 501 - Arca Swiss standardisation...
