FAQ - Frequently Asked
Questions |
| What screw do I need? |
There are only two types. The 1/4
inch and the 3/8 inch sizes. The 1/4 inch size is the most common,
especially on USA cameras, 35mm, DSLR and all point and shoot, and DV and
video cameras. The 3/8 inch size is more common on European cameras,
especially medium or large format. Medium format Mamiya, Bronica,
Hasselblad and some larger video cameras almost always have the 3/8, but
sometimes also have the 1/4. |
| What is an anti-rotation pin? |
On video cameras, and some newer DSLR
cameras there is a guide hole that is next to the screw hole on the bottom
of the camera. Some quick releases have a pin that fits into the
guide hole to prevent the camera from twisting or turning on the quick
release. This is great if you are using long lenses and shooting a
lot of vertical shots where the weight of the lens will pull and tend to
twist the camera around the screw. |
| Why doesn't the anti-rotation pin fit my camera? |
We have found that on the Olympus Evolt it
has a different spacing from the standard 9/16 center to center spacing.
Almost all of the standard quick releases have the 9/16 spacing. |
