If you are going use this solely for a camera or spotting scope , I would recommend going on ebay and look for a Bogen 3221 tri-pod. They will be steadier than this product. If you are going to combine this for shooting and spotting or camera, you can remove the yoke with a 3/16 hex wrench. The hex bolt sticks through the top plate about 3/8 of an inch ( you could use a longer bolt if necessary) , I am not sure what size bolt it takes to hold a camera or spotting scope.I wouldn't recommend this for a spotting scope or camera , although it does the job for a shooting rest.

I would think so. It is a standard 1/4-20 thread and has a flat base under the yoke. I hope this helps. I have not used mine a hole lot but they are very well built and simple to use. I like them better than the Bog pod set up although they are almost identical. Hope this helps Mike

yes you can. You'll have to remove the yolk and have a camera on the top with that threaded bolt

Yes. Just hold the short central vertical section, and twist the ball head which screws out. You can then attach another head. Thread size of the screw same as that above for camera attachment.

If I am right, you might need the quick release mount, amazon has it, for $9.00

You would have to find one in your camera store or online. They are readily available. They all have 4/20 screw holes that allow attachment to the threaded screw in the tripod quick release. That's how I do it.

Much like Maddog, have no idea what the attachment point looks like for the spotting scope. I have never worked with a spotting scope. You would have to look. Good luck with your quest and start lifting weights.

One can use Allen wrench (hex key). I angled the camera and goggles in a way that I can tighten down the supplied handle for mounts then just pushed the camera until I found the shooting angle that I wanted.

Not sure. I usually do not bother with the quick release feature since I switch tripods for different situations. This litte tripod is so easy to just screw on and off as I need it.

The scope can be installed in the mount so that it falls either way. The quick release will be on the opposite side of the way it slides. This means if you have the scope slide left, the quick release will be on the right, the opposite side of all red-dots that have a quick release.

No, if you want a quick release you'll have to get one. Be advised that a quick release will raise the height of the mounted camera. What I do is put the spare plate from my tripod on the bottom of the rig and attach the rig when I need to use sticks. It make more sense if your rig is loaded up with doo-dads.

attachments are removable yes, you can change, there is a switch that u can change to safe(can't shoot), auto, semi-auto

No it's for attaching to a nylon sling. What you're looking for is the push button quick release.

Im not sure about yours but i can't with mine,but it does allow you to remove the scope fast,and reinstall it fast with no adjustments

Sure can, as a matter of fact I do not like the flip ups on any scope, took mine off this nice little UTG. I like the scope!D00M

I Bought one similar to this to mount a Celestron C90 Mak Spotting scope using the dovetail attachment which has mounting holes that will accept the screws from the tripod quick release plate. The scope also has a Panasonic GX1 attached to it. This works fine for my application with minimum vibrations. I think as long as the weight of the scope is under the maximum rated weight for the tripod head you should be fine, also the shorter the scope the better.

Yes, you can unscrew the camera from the mount for quick removal without detaching the entire windshield assembly.

If you're referring to the baseplate that attaches to your camera, of course it's removable. But if you mean the body of the pistol grip, then no, there isn't any way short of a major rebuild that might allow that. If your goal is simply to use the Manfrotto plate, why not just mount the entire Manfrotto unit to the 1/4 20 screw on the Sunpak QR?
