Need help in finding xl2 to tripod adapter. at DVinfo.net

Donn Willey · January 5th, 2007, 10:31 AM

I've recently purchased an ITE tripod that has a 3/8" mounting screw (it most likely is metric, but I don't know the metric size or thread of the screw). I need a quick fix adapter to be able to mount my xl2 to the tripod. Please advise me as to a source for an adapter. Thanks much.

Let me know if there is a better place to post this. I'm a bit green.

Donn, I think the Canon TA100 tripod adapter will do. It's a quick releas plate, very sturdy. I got this myself and are very satisfied.
B&H got it in stock: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/cont...ughType=search

Thanks Per. I had considered that adapter and your advice pushed me to buy one from B&H today (No local camera shop here). I'll let you know how it goes. Thanks again.
