Hi everybody.
I need a very sturdy tripod for a VR photography project. I'll be taking pictures in windy places, so I need something really steady. My ex-boss has offered me this Manfrotto they don't use anymore (since the video head doesn't work properly anymore), and it sure feels solid.
The head that comes with it looks like this (it's broken, so I can take it apart as much as I want):
I want to keep the light grey lower part of it so I can put on it my VR head, but I don't know how to take it apart from the rest of the head (the "510" part). I've already taken out every screw I could, and I'm stuck here on a Sunday morning, not knowing what to do next.
Any ideas about how to do it?
Does anybody here has experience using this kind of tripod for photography?
