Is there a way to attach a quick-release plate on the bottom in order to attack it to a tripod?

I'm pretty sure that is an impossibility, unless you want to do a ton of modifying

Yes actually. There's many ways to Frankenrig this shoulder rig to have any attachment you'd like. Different screws and different adjustment pieces. Play with it! It's fun :D

I just looked at mine and it has the connection on the bottom so you should be able to mount it on a tripod.

No. the quick release screws into the bottom of your camera and then you attach it to the tripod

It has 1/4-20 slots drilled into the bottom and could easily mount to a tripod by attaching a quick release plate to it.

the quick release plate has a one quarter inch by 20 thread per inch screw (standard) that allows placing the plate firmly to the camera base. doing so rennders rapid no fumble mount and dismount to tripod head. enjoy!

Not really. I have to unscrew two screws from the Opteka base plate before I can attach to the tripod. Only takes less than a minute but sometimes annoying.

It just screws in to the quick release plate that comes standard with most every tripod

you would have to cut it off and fab somthing to attach the tripod adapter. anything is possible if you have the skills.

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)

No, it needs a quick release plate. But it can't connect to it like normally. You need to buy a bolt to connect it. It's a real hassle to take on and off. You literally have to unscrew the bolt using tools every time you want to put it away. Avoid this jib.

Yes, indeed. There is a female receptacle on the bottom for a tripod, and it works like a charm.

The base-plate from the tripod will screw right in the the hole on the bottom. No additional screws needed.

The simplest answer to that question is no. However if you could find a screw that had the male end on both ends, then you could screw the bracket to a better tripod. The down fall would be that it wouldn't have a quick release. the bracket surprisingly is very strong and quick to use.

Yes -and- No. No, you can't directly attach to a tripod quick release plate. BUT, I made a homemade quick release plate that will accept the attachment hub. Fairly easy with a jigsaw and dremel tool. Let me know if you are interested, I can email pictures and instructions. smfranz(at)netscape(dot)net

As far as I know, you can't attach it to the tripod. Other than that, I haven't really used it. I found it too difficult to get the weight right.

YesThe bottom of the handle has a thread that you can mount it on a standard tripod.
