I only have the twist locks on mine. I like them very much. They stay where they are supposed to.

This tripod has a great mount twist that easily allow for a smooth transitioned shot. The legs adjust very easy to whichever height you need, also makes for a great walking stick as well.

I have not used the flip locks, but I really like the twist locks. They are very easy to use and hold well.

Tripod is fine. Monopod you're risking shaky footage.Image is incomparable, but I use the 24-105 IS if I have to do handheld or monopod work.

The T-025 Sirui tripod I bought came with a Sirui C-10 plate, which is sometimes very hard to unscrew. If you find something better, go for it because this plate, all metal (no rubber protection), could easily be replaced by a more performant system.

never tried the tripod, have bought the Hugo & Quadruple Cane tip, both have about the same stability

Most tripods that are in store bought have a regulated size screw that threads into virtually any camera so no, its pretty much preference

It does have a lock for the tripod. The whole unit is very sturdy. The only piece that doesn't lock is the bottom bar containing the the screen. It rotates freely on the vertical main mast. The tension when opened holds it in place when its connected to the top

Yes, though I would choose the Amazon Basics one with the flip locks on the legs, unless you intend on using this only for light duty. It is a great light duty stand, is very lightweight, and easy to carry, but the telescoping mechanism isn't the most durable. Don't over tighten the legs.

The 302 has an adjustable loop at the top side. Allows for larger diameter than the 202 but still only one loop at the top right side. There is a velcro patch below it with 2 slight openings but nothing big enough to allow tripod leg.

There is a lock for use with each axis. I've really enjoyed using this tripod and probably should've purchased something other than lowest priced a long time ago.

It pulls out and twists to lock. There are 3 extensions and you can adjust each one to the length you want. It's fairly sturdy and I haven't had the camera rotate under it's own weight, even out of a moving car.

I use the Induro Tripod BHL-1 on my Induro tripod, and there are several adjustments on it that make it very smooth and easy to rotate. I've had mine quite a while, and after playing around with it, I now have it adjusted where I can easily go from a fixed shot to a panning action shot. It's been very effective for me to photograph birds in flight.

Yes. Easily by tilting the plate that fastens the camera to tbe tripod. You can lock the camera in any position between 0 (horizontal) & 90 (vertical) degrees.

The very top of most tripods is a 1/4 screw so you can screw on a camera direct or any female 1/4 item. It's built in - not an adaptor or accessory. I've put a 5dm3 on it buts it's really flimsy and obviously cannot rotate like a fluid ball head could but it'll work in a pinch

The Pro version of the capture clip has a manfrotto option, but I don't know much about whether it's compatible with your setup or not (I'm an Arca guy). If you go to Peak Design's current kickstarter, they're upgrading the quick release so that you don't have to choose a dual-manfrotto/arca plate or a plain arca plate when you purchase the clip. It's got screw-on shims that change the angle of the bevels on the plate, depending on which setup you're going to use.

Good question. You can get one for 12 dollars from B & H . I didnt see one on Amazon, but if you type "magnus vt 300 quick release" on the internet, you may find a cheaper price. Hope this helps. Otherwise, this tripod only comes with one quick release plate and its a hard cardboard and hard plastic plate that may not fit other items.

Both are fine; the 6 screw spreads the clamping pressure and is technically better since the tube would theoretically deform less in unintended impacts. If your rifle will not be subject to bein g handled like a shovel or hatchet you could save a few bucks and it would be OK. The flip locks are great but you may want to use Loctite on the tension adjuster screws.
