Frage von ennui:
Hi, I've got a Manfrotto 700RC2 Video Head, which I will like to build a compact camera tripod from another manufacturer. I am not sure how exactly to be fixed. He has below 3/8-Inch thread. The tripod ends synonymous with the appropriate screw, nut and including a thin rubber disc. The head has still s.der bottom still a kind of multi-disk cavities, as if he should put on a matching counterpart. Now if I screw your head on it, and it still dressed as strong, it is happening, that the pan will soon no longer swings of steamed / sluggish fluid head, but this is just 3/8-Schraubverbindung instead released again.
Fits any theoretically M. video head just like on any tripod with the 3/8-Schraube, or is there anything else what to what stabilizes the connection? Or should I just her mother s.Fotostativ to attract even more counter-rotating, which is aimed at?
Antwort von Filmo:
In those of you mentioned "slat recesses" grab for Manfrotto tripods set screws of the bottom of the tripod plate.

The head is so screwed first and then these same (3) of tiny screws tightened down, the head is thus secured against unscrewing from the 3 / 8 thread.
One could perhaps turn out against the use synonymous a liquid thread lock on the 3/8-Gewinde-vehicle technology (such as Loctite)
The central 3/8-Schraube can naturally be attracted ever neat.
