Is the bottom of the grip threaded to allow for tripod use or do you have to remove the battery grip for tipod use?

Yes it is threaded. I like that it has an adapter that lets you use AA batteries if your Nikon batteries go dead.

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 :)

Sorry, just saw the question is frontage 60d battery grip, but I have the 6d battery grip, so I cannot answer that question

That's right. You use the existing battery slot to port the grip - leaving the two battery slots in the grip for camera use.

It has a female threaded screw for the camera mount adapter. You can mount it directly to a tripod. I have used it that way with no problem, assuming correct thread diameter on the tripod.

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. Ed#

It is designed to be used with a tripod. I prefer to remove the strap, but at times leave it on as well.

No it locks right into camera just like your Tripod would & yes there is a spot on the bottom of battery holder to attach your tripod to. Most camera have straps that are at the top of a camera & if it was on the bottom attached to this battery holder your camera would always be upside down. Hope that helps.

The screw that goes into the bottom of the camera is a standard 1/4" diameter, 20 threads-per-inch screw. Please note that I found this to be a poorly machined tripod. The so-called flluid head does not move smoothly as it should. Other aspects of the machining are poor. I returned the tripod and got another the same. It was bad in different areas.

Nope. Only tripod connector is on the bottom. You either need a tripod that lets you turn the head sideways (my larger Bogen one does) or a basic "L" bracket. May even come up with something from Home Depot if you are the crafty type. Remember, camera and tripod standard screws are 1/4"-20 so they are easy to find in the hardware store.

Joe, best I can do is what I've stated previously. Screw the grip to camera platform on your tripod.

This connects to the bottom of the camera. You insert 2 batteries that the camera uses into the grip. It does NOT come with the batteries. You must purchase them separately. You can also use "AA" size batteries. The battery grip makes the camera bigger and for me, easier to handle. Plus you get to shoot pictures twice as long because you have the 2 batteries. I have 2 Cannon cameras and each of them have the battery grip on both. Obviously, I like them.

Yes. Screw it directly to the bottom of the camera. When you place the camera on a tripod with the plate you must unscrew it

Yeah, no - when you have it all rigged up, you can't use the battery grip. I'd recommend getting an AC adapter and wearable external power source (battery pack) if you need it for extended periods of time. Otherwise, just be ready to dismantle it every hour or so to swap batteries.Neewer® ACK-E8 Replacement AC Power Adapter Supply Kit for Canon EOS Rebel T5i/700D, T4i/650D, T3i/ 600D, T2i/550D

No. I've used battery grips with 300D, 10D, 40D and now 60D Canons. All were unique and not interchangeable with each other.
