Does the head come off? What is the size thread on the tripod? Or is it a bowl mount?

I have this tripod and love it! Yes the head comes off, in fact the head comes I it's own box and you have to put it on the tripod. And yes, it's a "bowl" mount. That allows you to level the head very easily.

Yes the head comes off. It's a bowl mount. Best money I've ever spent and received a quality product

Its a bowl... I'm keeping it in a store so I can't see which way it un mounts but would assume it does

The fluid head mounts to the frame with a bowl mount and single large screw. Two different camera thread sizes are included with the detachable mounting plate. It is a very solid video tripod, but users over about 5'6" (168cm) tall will have to stoop to use it.

It has a 3/8 threaded hole for which you could get an adapter to take it down to 1/4 20. It's a hefty head so just make sure the tripod is strong enough to take it.

Joseph, yes there is a thread in the bottom of the knob. if you are thinking of tripod mounting using this threaded hole you could but I think I am going to attach a metal plate to the bottom of mine with the tripods head quick release plate and also form rubber feet to recess the quick release tripod plate.. ... as a camera holder this works well for lo angle shots etc here at our production unit. there are more elaborate systems for camera support... but of course the price escalates as the features increase. We have owned our unit for several months now.

It has the screw whole in the bottom. I used the same attachment for my spotting scope tripod which was a quick release. It is light so any decent tripod should work fine. Just watch out in high winds.

I think the mount is threaded, however to keep the strap mount on the camera and then add a tripod adapter to the bottom too would be a little too much....to remove the strap mount only takes a few seconds.

The mount will come off. It held to the Picatinny mount by two small screws. Easy on and off.

it has the standard 1/4-20 thread to it. I believe that it's the size. what most tripods have. And just to let you know the shaft on that is extremely stiff. like if it was made out of a soft steel. and there is two different sizes the clamp can be adjusted to

No, unfortunately the ball-head does not detach. The legs are flexible, which makes packing it pretty easy. I usually just straighten all of the legs and it is only about a foot tall. Fits in my back pack or camera bag with ease! I highly recommend this tripod. It's my favorite accessory for my gopro.

The adapter screws onto the hinge behind the focus knob. There's a little plastic piece about the diameter of a penny that you have to remove first. It should turn off (ccw--standard right-hand thread) fairly easily. The larger square side of the adapter attaches to your tripod. I believe it's a 1/4-20 thread--pretty standard for small camera tripods.

Yes it is threaded for a tripod .. it is not centered it's more off to one side .. so a standard type tripod will be just fine .. but if you are using a mini tripod make sure it is a sturdy one to make sure the camera is stable .. as you are probably aware those off center tripod sockets tend to make the camera tricky to balance out when using those flexible mini tripods .. hope that helps :)

It pans from the base of the tripod, not the head. It is great though. It is the best monopod I've ever seen!

There are one screw for mounting on a tripod and 2 snap on fasteners for the top cover; the screw will come off but the fasteners will not.

I believe it is a tripod mount. It just gets in my way so I removed it and used gaff tape to cover the hole.

I replaced the head that came with the tripod with a Manfrotto head. You will have to order a 75mm ball mount for it. I ordered a Manfrotto 520BALL Half Ball Leveler with 3/8-Inch Screw for 75mm Bowl Tripods. I assume any 75mm bowl will work. Just unscrew the bottom (between the legs) of the head that came with it and it should pop right off.

It is a very short 1/4 inch threaded stud....so yes, I believe that is the standard camera mount like on a tripod. I will see if I can verify when back at the office.

Sorry, it is a 1/4 inch hole.I checked the Velbon Ultra Luxi tripod's pin that engages the head with my calipers and it is a 1/4 inch pin.The head does not have any other hole, so you will need to get an adaptor to allow you to use your tripod.These are fairly cheap, but a pain in the neck to use. Can you get a different tripod?

It doesn't have a quick release plate like a tripod head. It just has a screw that you use to screw directly into the tripod mount of your camera. On the other side it has a 1/4x20 mount that you could use to mount your own quick release plate.
