I just purchased the Monfrotto 679B monopod with the 234 RC swivel head. The bolt on the top of the monopod is larger then the threaded hole on the head. Do I have to get an adapter for this to fit?

Disregard. The adapter was already fitted inside...I feel pretty stupid now.

Yeah it threw me off too. Usually the screw will reverse or something.

Good monopod for the price though. Love mine.

Yeah, it is perfect for my height and seems very sturdy. It will definitely come in handy for wildlife photography.

Pretty cool when you answer your own questions though isnt it? ;)
