I bought a new tripod in a hurry because my previous one doesn't work,
and attached is a picture of the quick-release plate.
It however doesn't fit onto the tripod foot of my Opticron scope, for which also see attached.
The screw on the plate is supposed to go into the hole in the middle of the tripod foot. However, the tripod foot itself has a screw, which gets in the way of the plate when I try to fix it onto the tripod foot,
so that if I were to use the scope on a tripod anyway, the scope would often wobble by itself.
Please advise. Short of my just buying another tripod, what solutions are there?
