Father Christmas has just gave me a Manfrotto ball head with quick release system. I am having difficulty getting the plate sufficiently tight enough to the base of my D90 to overcome the weight of a 70-300 lens in portrait orientation, I have checked the depth of the screw and its way off bottoming in the camera base, it just appears that I need to screw it tighter than I can with my hand to get the friction neccessary, it doesn't help that the base of the camera is plastic and not rubber I'm frightened of damaging the camera if I use anymore force. Has anyone any tips before I do some damage?
