How do I screw the camera onto the tripod? I don't see the threads.
Your tripod ships with a protective cover over the threads to avoid damage in transit. All you need to do is pull it off and you'll see the threads.
How do I open the tripod?
What should my tripod look like when open?
The center pole needs to be at a right angle to the cross pieces for maximum stability. Make sure you are using your sandbags or other weights as well.
Where should I set up my tripod?
Set up the Tripod at mid field, 4-5 steps from the midfield line. Secure the tripod with all three sandbags. Each sandbag holds ~10lbs of sand.
