Q: 1. Is this head arca swiss compatible? I need an L plate to use a vertical camera?

A: This head is not Arca Swiss Compatible. It uses a standard Manfrotto 501PL plate. If you are in need of assistance finding a head more appropriate for shooting with a camera in a vertical mode please email prophoto@bhphotovideo.com.

Q: 2. Will either Manfrotto's 200 PL or 200LT PL work on this head? I really want something smaller on my Lumix GH5. Thanks in advance!
