Frage von Marvin:
Hello,
I want to buy a tripod Velbon DV -7000 and combine this with the Manfrotto 701 RC2 ball head. The head has a 3 / 8 "thread, but I do not know what that has Velbon Tripod for a screw.
Can someone help me?
Thank you
Antwort von beiti:
I do not know if you can unscrew the head of the Velbon DV -7000. My (D600) was stuck, but I am just me runterbekommen brute force, and then a 1 / 4 "screw with adapter came on 3 / 8" to light.
However, I have committed the act of violence, in order to screw the Velbon head on my Manfrotto tripod to be - certainly not the reverse.
The Velbon head for its price class exceptionally well, so soft you can get pans with Manfrotto head back to the never synonymous when it may be mechanically more stable.
If you absolutely want to use the Manfrotto head, buy you a Manfrotto 190 or similar for less. But I would at any time the Velbon, as it is to prefer. The head of the exchange against a Velbon Manfrotto would be a real Schildbürgerstreich.
Antwort von Chris H.:
Hello,
to the head from unscrewing one Velbon DV 7000. (it is soluble in strong damping sometimes even of themselves);
If this is now a 3 / 8 "screw is I can not say unfortunately.
Many greetings
Chris

Hi,
So I have now changed my mind for the Manfrotto 301 or 303 tripod head. Of 303 I've ever used and is really good.
So I must say that I still had no Velbon Tripod, but I've been guilty of that one, synonymous here in the forum. So I'm not so sure of their heads.
And when I stopped Manfrotto know what I buy.
Antwort von beiti:
You certainly do MA 501 or 503rd
Then you buy synonymous, but a decent Manfrotto tripod for under it, otherwise the solution is pretty top-heavy.
I once had the Manfrotto Velbon 501 and the plastic head side by side for testing. The Manfrotto is far more stable and more durable, but the Velbon can swing softer. The Manfrotto s.dem suffers from typical problems of many fettbasierter fluid heads that after a certain life time "sticking": Suppose you have to during an event for ten minutes, the camera pans to a halt and then off again, then there is a little jerk (not strong, but with longer focal lengths to find it).
Does the sticking Velbon never, and his loss is so good that absout succeed Diagonalschwenks step-free (even my Sachtler is worse) there. The downside is that you can never really screw the Velbon. Even if you festzurrt the thumbscrews best to remain vague and even tough the head swiveling. To a fixed tightening and loosening during the recording (eg to the camera in an oblique position) is not unthinkable. Sowas go with the Manfrotto better.
Especially durable is the Velbon in continuous use is not synonymous: although I used it only occasionally, he has moved more and more, and after a few years ago you could unscrew the camera just slightly tilted. Have 501, I do not remember, but my other Manfrotto equipment I would describe as almost indestructible, which is intended synonymous for 501/503.
Manfrotto Velbon and share a problem: If the tripod used in the winter outside, the attenuation is very tough. The Velbon I had so much as I had pre-damping inside, outside, barely moving.
Nevertheless, today I Bräuchte a light travel tripod for a small camcorder, I would not hesitate to attack again Velbon. I know of no other Tripods these price-and weight class with such a good damping. Thus, it is not suitable for continuous use, you must live in the face of the price.
Antwort von Marvin:
So, I think you've convinced me.
Special thanks s.beiti.
I did not spend so much money anyway and will probably now take the Velbon DV7000 without additional head.
I can still switch to Manfrotto later, when I can afford a ¬ 500 Tripod.
Think of the times Velbon is a good interim solution.
Thank you

Especially durable is the Velbon in continuous use is not synonymous: although I used it only occasionally, he has moved more and more, and after a few years ago you could unscrew the camera just slightly tilted. Since you have the screw for the fixation des Neiges, however, have attracted quite tight! Your description of the error must be fluid substance to be in the parking brake. Then the brake keeps his head down not really.
My Velbon I have now for 16 years and it's still as good as s.ersten day. At least as far as the pan / tilt head. The tripod itself was, of course, more and more time with the game. However, I can run with a long focal synonymous still very fine panning.
Antwort von Jan:
Yes can you unscrew the head from the DV 7000 is not a 3 / 8 much bigger - a screw right in the middle, no 3 / 8 as with the heads Manfrotto 700 / 701 RC 2 - do not ask me what size ....
Although Manfrotto combined MA 55 CL / higher Pro (as DV 7000) with the new head 701 RC 2 - the advantage of focusing the camera backwards and forwards have to be pushed, sowas normally found in expensive tripods of the synonymous head vertically and! horizental fluidgedämpft is gabs with 700 RC 2 is still not.
Yes, but is considerably more expensive than the good / cheap DV 7000th
