RC for interchanging tripod heads?

might be a silly question but now I have a pano head for my tripod, it occurred to me that swapping the heads over every time I want to use either one, will quickly become tedious (screwdriver needed)

Would it be beyond the realms of reasonable to use a rapid-connect system between legs & heads? I'm already using Manfrotto RC0 to attach both ballhead & pano head to the camera, would another RC0 below the head be the way to go?

edit: I have manfrotto 055PROB legs with a 488RC0 ballhead, and now also a manfrotto 303plus pano head (which also uses RC0 system)

Instead of removing the head from the tripod each time, you could get an extra center column for the pano head.

Really Right Stuff has a really nice quick connect system for ballheads and the like. I use it to swap my tripod between a ballhead and pano gear, with designs on attaching a gimbal the same way some day.

thanks for the suggestions - that extra center column sounds like a great idea! (and probably cheaper too...) cheers.

Does your tripod have a two-piece center column?

This might be even better... http://www.manfrottosp​ares.com …ct/product&prod​uct_id=655
