Mar 13, 2019 at 23:00 comment added osullic Not that it's very useful information, but I did some digging on the fact I never received a screw thread adapter... Back in 2003, Manfrotto offered a 200PL-14 and a 200PL-38. I guess instead of having 2 distinct products, at some point after 2003, they merged these into a single 200PL that came with the screw thread adapter.

Mar 13, 2019 at 22:40 comment added osullic I bought a Manfrotto 484RC2 ball-head (supplied with a 200PL-14 quick-release plate), as well as an additional 200PL-14, from Speed Graphic in the UK on 2003-11-10. I got one VHS pin (metal) that Michael mentions, and no screw thread adapter. On 2018-03-18 I bought a Manfrotto Befree Advanced tripod with the Sony Alpha 200PL-PROSONY quick-release plate directly from Manfrotto. It came with a plastic "VHS pin", and no thread adapter.
