Anyone have any ideas on what hardware to use to connect a tripod to my video housing?
Specifically: I have a Gates housing, which already has a plate on the bottom, and that plate has a female 1/4-20 threaded hole.
I intend to purchase a Gorilla Pod Focus, or perhaps some other tripod, which will have a 1/4-20 male thread.
Instead of screwing the tripod directly to the housing, I desire the ability to easily attach or detach the tripod from the housing when underwater, with one gloved hand.
I'm thinking I need something like a Dovetail adaptor, or Sea and Sea adapter, etc.. Trying to avoid buying a separate tripod head that has a disconnect plate.
Any ideas are appreciated.
