Forgive me if this has been mentioned before, I tried searching but to no avail.
I have a Manfrotto 701 video head and Konova Slider combination that I really enjoy using. The Konova slider comes with a nice and slim carrying case. My dilemma is attaching the video head. I have to travel with these separated and when on location that's when I screw the head onto the slider base plate.
- Would using a quick release plate to connect/disconnect the video head to the slider be advisable?
- If I continue to screw the head on and off each time should I worry about wearing out the threading?
- Also, what is a good way to pack a video head in a kit full of gear?
Leaving the head on all the time is not an option for me.
- Any recommendations?
