Tripod Thread

#1 Post by Mad Mart »

I'm making a bracket for my track Sprint for a camcorder to sit on. Can anyone tell me the standard thread size for screwing tripods or similar into the bottom of cameras/camcorders?

cheers

standard camcorder screw in mounting is 1/4" thread, I thought...I Googled it but came up with nothing concrete.

Here we go:
Standard 1/4" #20 mounting thread screw on camcorder
Get a bolt and thread it in, see if it fits :) Easy way to check!

I'll be writing a review of the stickypod system I've got soon, so I'll link that up when it's done. Expect lots of random 'chase' footage to turn up as well :lol:

go to your local motorbike shop as you can buy mini tripods for mounting camcorders to bike tanks.

OK, it's ¼" thread...I'm pretty sure it's BSC.
