    giotto MH 5000-5001 ?

    I ordered a giotto MH-5001 and received a 5000.
    As far as I can tell the only difference is that the 5000 does not have the quick release.
    Not having had one before, can the quick release just be added to the 5000 to make it a 5001?
    I'd like for the place I ordered from just be able to send the quick release instead of having to send this one back and then wait for the 5001.
    Thankyou?
    Keep Shooting!

    Who did you order it from? Have you contacted them about it?

    I forgot this thread was still here but thanks for replying, Jimmy.
    After some more research I contacted the seller and they immediatly mailed me the correct one via priority mail and I had it two days.
    It took a bit to contact them by email so I phoned and then learned they'd had a medical emergency which is why they had been unable to respond immediatly.
    Sobe photo on ebay. Sent new one without even waiting to get the 5000 back and sent me a prepaid ups slip to ship it back.
    I'm quite happy with the 5001. See reviews and thanks for responding.

    No problem Frog, I haven't stepped up and purchased a new tripod yet, I will get on with a QR head and have the same for mono-pod.There is some other stuff that i want to get before it though.
