I'm not too familiar with these specific items, but after doing some general online research, I'd say yes, in fact, they might be a great idea for holding the background tight, if that's what you're after. I may have to experiment myself...:) Good luck!

I'm not sure, but I actually use mine on pole too. I went to Home Depot and bot a U shaped screw and attached them that way. Cheers

Hello Harry. It seems the tripod has a standard thread so you can swap it with any head of your choosing. Note though, the screw is not the 1/4 inch-20, but the heavier bolt size. The pistol grip will give you super easy 2-axis movement, but the head that is shipped has an excellent panning feature separate from the ball function and the ball has both a locking knob and a friction knob that lets you have fairly fluid 2-axis movement. I'm actually very impressed with this tri/monopod - they surpased my expectation for a Chinese product and it more closely resembles the popular Italian line.

my tool for such things is the Manfrotto Super Clamp, it opens to about 2 inches or so. It takes the baby-pin on these arms.

I'm using a Manfrotto 808RC4 with this tripod, and it's a great combination. I like the Manfrotto MBAG90PN case too. It's a tight fit with the head on the tripod but it works fine ! It's all a great system !

I have absolutely no problem. I use all Manfrotto tripods, monopods, heads, and QD plates, and they all work fine. You did not say if the thread was too small, too large, or not cut correctly. The standard is 3/8 and you may have a tripod with 1/4-20, if so you can buy a thread adapter at any camera store, or at Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/Manfrotto-088LBP-Adapter-4-Inch--8-Inch/dp/B001CZUSUE/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid;=1376920249&sr;=8-5&keywords;=tripod+3%2F8+to+1%2F4-20+adapter

Should fit it fine, that is a pretty much universal part. this tri pod is great. But the screw that holds the main camera in place needs to be tightened really tight, and it is almost like you need to make sure everything is in its perfect spot. but for the price this is an awesome unit. I bought three at a 1.50, all worked fine with a little play. best suction i've seen on any mount hands down.

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.

Like James said, on the bottom is a 3/8-16(?...coarse thread for light stands and such) with an insert to convert it to 1/4-20. This is probably most useful on a monopod or a bogen superclamp, but it could work on a tripod, if you didn't have a head on it already. It's kind of small, so it might be challenging to adjust it between another head and a camera. I use mine for GoPros on superclamps.

Yes, my wife has used this with her Specialized tri-bike and her Pinarello road bike. Of course everything depends on how tight you crank the straps. With just a little slack it will be fine.

Arca style clamp? No. And there is no adapter that I know of that can receive this, because the Manfrotto plate is larger than the Arca-Swiss plate.

no ... does not fit all tripods ... you need to xref on manfrotto site to get match

If the Manfrotto has an extended piece at the top to go through the lower area of the hot shoe, by all means do it and tighten as needed, however, I have a Manfrotto monopod that doesn't have that extended piece to it. I use it on my Cowboy Studio flash Stands that comes with the top to tighten it.

Yes you can attach a tri-pod. It has the screw slot you need. Standard for cameras.

I don't understand the question. I use this tripod with a manfrotto ball head and it works fine

yeah i know what you're talking about, but i plan to mount it with a manfrotto 200 pl quickrelease, and not using your screw, to get a gd stabiliity on tripod. The problem with canon 6d it that the camera body won't accept the magnetic part, i already try two different viewfinder. They don't stick to the body because the body around the lcd screen is not perfectly flat... that's suck. What do you think about mounting your device with a 200pl quick relase? I know the screw would be too short but i can use a longer one. Thx for your quick answer. regards

It's designed to fit GoPro mounts, but theoretically yes, you could just bolt it to stuff if you really want to go that route; not sure if it would be 1. Stable 2. Safe 3. Secure when directly mounting it like that, and you would run into geometric issues with the shape of the contour and how small this adapter actually is.

Not very sure regarding the question. But for me no problem. I just screw the tripod mount under the viewfinder screw and no problem. Make sure to tighten enough or else it would defeat the purpose of tripod.
