Photos shows two different tripods. Description says "flexible tripod" which implies the tripod in the main photo is the incorrect tripod. Clarify?

Great question! Love your attention to detail. I wondered the same. You will receive both tripods. While the inflexible tripod has a symbol on it, the other clearly has the Bower name on it.

The package I received came with two tripods, oddly enough. The flexible one was a cheap tripod that came with an assortment of cleaning supplies. The other one was a vivitar tripod. Both seem rather cheap, honestly, but I didn't care because the value of the case and memory card made the package a great bargain for me.

there were two tripods in the package I received. One was a flexible one, maybe 3" tall and one was a plastic one that was maybe 9" tall. Both were very cheaply made and I have not used either.

It appears to be the same tripod only different name. A lot of chinese factories will make identical items for different companies.

Here are a couple YouTube videos which explain the different features of the tripod. You have several different heads to chose from. So you will have to purchase a head.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zmenklsAZX8https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSD-hvrqFY4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fpor9c3F104I really like mine.

I don't know. I purchased it as a gift for a friend who is starting to get more serious about photography, but hikes a lot. She wanted a fairly lightweight tripod. I will be checking up on how she likes it, and reporting back. I thought of it as a "first" tripod.

Can't answer as I have the tripod that was sent in error instead of the bipod that they allowed me to keep.

Not sure exactly what you mean. The tripod is strudy, well built and does not flop down. Good resistance when you rock back or forwardard

Yes, but that's not enough information to provide a recommendation. Most different heads will fit onto most different tripods, but that doesn't mean they're all matched appropriately to the load and to each other.

It is, but keep mind that it's the 4 section one. There's also a three section version of this same tripod.

I don't think anybody knows. I have this tripod as well and love it but one thing is for sure the support is not there. Still a very good tripod

The tripod is a standard camera mount. I would think that you could consider it a universal mount. If you are unsure take your equipment to a camera store and try it on a camera tripod.

that's not the model (the one with the blue accents) that shipped to me. as a matter of fact the picture looks completely different from the one that I bought. you might want to check with the seller to make sure what you would receive. the one that I bought back in May was for cameras, it has a ball head but without the pan handle. it looks more like the carbon fiber version of this that they sell. this tripod that's pictured is either a new product or a updated version of mine. hope this helps.

I do not see that this item has a tripod mount. You may wanrt to check this with the manufacturer.

While detachable from the tripod, I think the mount may not be interchangeable with other tripods. The mount is what is computerized. Yes the tripod and mount were included in the purchase.

this is just the Tripod LEGS. it's pretty confusing. I made that mistake. if you want the whole set up, legs, head, ball and bag go here. http://www.amazon.com/Manfrotto-MVK502AM-Video-Telescoping-Carry/dp/B006LWHLSA/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid;=1357845109&sr;=8-4&keywords;=manfrotto+tripod+502

Unless they have changed the way this tripod is assembled, I would be careful buying it. The head, on the one I had, was GLUED on and not screwed on. After some time, it came loose and put my camera at risk of falling. I contacted the manufacturer and expressed my concern. I would check with the manufacturer to see whether they have corrected this problem.

I'm not exactly sure what fluid head really means, I'm sorry but it is a great tripod and the head is flexible but still has a great sturdy hold if that makes any sense.. Hope I was able to help!

Dear theresa, Thanks for your contact. Actually, the tripod is just a auxiliary tools and it is not neccessary. And the product doesn't include the tripod. Is that ok for you? If you like it, just place the order, then we will ship it out ASAP. Any questions, please feel free to contact us. Waiting for your good news. Sincerely, Vivian
