Re: Tightening the a Fluid Head
Alastair...well, sort of. Lubricating the 'Clampimg Screw assembly' allowed me to introduce additional mechanical force (torque) when leveling the Fluid Head. The Head eventually will loosen, and begin slipping, but it stays secure longer. I haven't tried the 'fiber washer' mod, yet.
Regards, J. |

Sabyasachi...ROTFLMAO! Humping a tripod and camera kit over 'hill and dale' is something I'm very familiar with. Heh, heh!
