Hi, I just ordered the 488RC2 head and the tripod to head attachment is a 3/8-inch female.
My tripod legs have a 1/4-inch screw on the top for the attachment. What do I do? I went to home depot and some camera stores but they were all clueless on any kind of connector. Thanks in advance for your help!

I believe it has a sleeve adapter that you add. Here---->http://www.amazon.com …lance_foto_ai_-2_5_tit_nj (external link)

Surprised to hear that a camera store was clueless! My local shop is a valuable source of reliable information.

That's what happens when you employ school leavers at minimum wages. Pay peanuts - Get Monkeys.
