Will this rig mount on a tripod? One user said yes, one said no. Does anyone know for sure?

YES! there are 1/4" 20 thread holes, two to choose from each side of the bottom of both the rail clamp and the cage itself. best cage for the price hands down, cant go wrong.... best of luck!

YES! The cage has 1/4" 20 pitch all across the frame and on the rod carriage there is a 3/8's as well. Nice protection and accessability for Israeli Arms and 1/4" 20 pitch mounting brackets.

It will not mount directly to a tripod as it does not have 1/4" x20 taped holes on the bottom for a quick release plate to screw into. The bottom rail mount that is included does however, have two 1/4" x20 holes that I used to insert two smaller third-party nuts and bolts and put the quick release on that way. So, it is possible (and I use this cage on a day-to-day basis) just not out of the box. Side note - I have upgraded all of my 15mm rail components except this cage because I like it so much. (highly recommended)

I mounted it on my tripod & it worked out pretty good. I think it will also work with a monopod.

It does not mount to tripods, this is for like the horse shot for Canon DSLRs, such as like a H4N on top of the DSLR.

Yes, you can connect this onto your Tripod mount. It uses a stand 1/4" 20 connection.

It does indeed have the ability to mount to a tripod (by screw on the bottom) although since it is a very narrow spot it may be more wobbly than others (if not screwed down tightly)

Hi there.. it does have a mounting hole for tripods.The only trouble is the the mounting hole is not centered on the underside.I found using a very small tripod, for digital cameras, did not support the unbalanced weight and toppled.A more suitable tripod should do fine.

You can mount it on the tripod. You can physically move the camera by moving your body when using the rig, but the camera is stationary in the rig. I also found the mount uncomfortable since the weight rests on the front of the shoulder. I added an over the shoulder mount, and it's great for shooting hand held.

You would have to design your own mounting system, beyond the tripod mount. I did not get optional mounts in the box with my purchase.

In my opinion there is no real tripod mount. It has the screw end similar to all the rest of the gopro mounts and there is a nut that goes on the other end. The camera mount fits between and is screwed down to tighten. It can be left a bit loose to adjust the angle as well. I don't think any of this hardware,e would work on a normal tripod though!

Never tried it with a tripod but there is a spot for you to screw it onto a tripod.

Yes it can, you just screw on the plate from your tripod to the bottom of this rig, very simple and easy!

Yes, It's a tripod. But dont' use it. Get a stable stand. The tripod is not stable

I agree with the other people who answered the question. I purchased multiple sets so that all of my cameras, tripods, handheld brackets, etc. are compatible for mounting. The cost is minimal and these things work great!

No it doesn't have a tripod mount! If you are not buying it for a ten year old kid or younger, DON'T! It's garbage! I promise you will regret it. Hope this helps! (Sgt. USMC)

Don't know for sure. It rotates horizontally and goes up & down so if you can mount it on your tripod sideways, it should work. Why not buy it and try it. You can always return it, AND answer your own question.

Yes it has a tripod mount. Sound is terrible. Plain and simple if you are not narrating your own video and trying to record sound coming from the subject you are filming - dont bother. But video is beautiful. If you dont have a mac, working with the mov files is a real pain. There are work arounds but they are complicated. And to convert file formats could take hours if you dont have a fast computer. Let alone having it come out clean and usable.
