A very little step forward

Proudly standing on the tripod
The Quartz Zoom has a 3/8 inch diameter socket for tripods while my tripod has 1/4 inch diameter screw. The solution is a little adapter from Hama that can be turned into the Quartz's socket making the diameter only 1/4 inch long. This simple it is.

Today I bought the adapter for about 0.80 EUR. Now the Quartz can be mounted to my tripod and this makes possible to shoot single frames with a cable release. 

Tonight I will give it a go. For more pictures click read more then scroll down.
