ARCA-SWISS Core Leveler 60 monoball®Fix

Ultra-compact. When precision is non-negotiable.

The ARCA-SWISS Core Leveler 60 is a high-precision leveling head for photographers who demand uncompromising horizontal alignment – especially in architectural, landscape and reproduction work. Unlike traditional ball or geared heads, the Core Leveler is entirely dedicated to accurate leveling, allowing the camera platform to be aligned with millimetric precision before composition.

With micrometric movements of ±10° on two axes and 360° panning on both the top and base, the Core Leveler 60 provides maximum control in a compact and lightweight form – ideal for field use or as a precise platform for panoramic and 3D systems.

How does the “monoball®Fix” quick release work?

The monoball®Fix system uses a precise, low-profile clamping mechanism. The camera plate is locked directly by a rotation or short lever movement – fast, play-free, and form-fitting. The reduced height minimizes vibrations and ensures an even more stable connection between the camera and the head.

Important note: The monoball®Fix system is precisely matched to the dimensions of original ARCA-SWISS monoball®Fix plates. Only genuine plates should be used, as third-party products with dimensional tolerances may affect clamping performance and safety.
