Leofoto VH-10 single tilt head for monopods

ARCA standard in system integration

The Leofoto VH-10 is a 1-way tilt head for monopods that is fun to use exactly when things need to move fast. Whether telephoto, sports, or event photography, you get a clean, controlled tilt without the setup becoming unnecessarily large or heavy. The clamp accepts Arca-Style compatible (according to the manufacturer) 38 mm dovetail, and on top sits a swiveling ARCA Style clamp with screw lock, grippy locking knob, and integrated panoramic scale. If you use ARCA compatible or ARCA Style gear, it fits well into the system; you can find details here.

It’s also compact and hardly noticeable in a backpack. And yes, when you’re on the go, you notice things like that immediately.

Handy format for on the go

With a height of 9.0 cm and a weight of 0.36 kg, the VH-10 remains pleasantly handy, especially when traveling or when you change locations frequently. The housing is made of aluminum and is black anodized, so it’s robust enough for everyday use without being overly conspicuous. The base has a diameter of 4.3 cm, which keeps the head stable on the monopod, even when things get hectic.

Targeted tilt with a large angle

As a tripod head type, the VH-10 is a 1-way tilt head, made precisely for tracking subjects cleanly up or down. The tilt range is 180°, allowing for steep perspectives as well as low-angle shots. For telephoto work this is worth its weight in gold, because you’re not constantly fighting a spongy head; the movement remains clearly guided.

Full rotation with orientation aid

The panorama axis rotates 360°. The integrated scale helps with reproducible panning, for example when you repeatedly need the same framing or want to align series cleanly. For sports and event photography this is practical, because you can track quickly without losing your orientation.

Versatile mounting on your setup

On the bottom there is the standard 3/8" UNC thread, recommended for tripods with 3/8" UNC thread mount. In addition, the VH-10 has a dovetail profile on the underside, which expands the mounting options depending on how your setup is configured. It’s the kind of detail you don’t need every day, but when you do, you’re glad it’s there.

Load capacity with headroom

The maximum load capacity is 10.0 kg. This means the 1-way tilt head is also designed for larger combinations of camera and telephoto lens without having to run it at the limit. Especially in telephoto work, having some reserve matters, because even small vibrations can otherwise become visible.
