Does this come with a screw connector to attach it to the tripod? If now, can one be purchased separately?

It can be attached to any standard 3/8 16 threads per inch tripod. Preferably a sturdy one because the though the panning is very smooth there is a little resistance, even with the lock screw loosened, at the end and can cause slight bounce back at the end of a horizontal or vertical pan.

It did not but I . was able to use the one that came with my tripod camera attachments. :)

Yes, there is a spot to attach a strap (not included), it is directly below the "HOLD" button... I'm not sure why the one correct answer went on to confuse things by saying that it is threaded for a tripod mount. It is not; the tripod mount is an entirely separate and different thing.But yes, there is a spot to attach a strap (not included), it is directly below the "HOLD" button.

It comes with a flat screw plate to attach your camera, but it has no flexibility. I strongly recommend getting a swivel tripod head. it gives you more height from the stand and you can position it anyway necessary.

Unfortunately, the connector that locks the camera to the harness (it works well and released from the harness easily and quickly) uses the tripod mounting screw hole, and must be unscrewed to be able to mount it to a tripod. Not a very difficult task, but not as convenient as I'd prefer.

Hi Amy. The tripod becomes pretty much useless without the connector, doesn't it? Just google "sunpac tripod parts" and you'll find several sources for parts. Good luck.

this has a standard screw hole for all tripods. I have a vivitar tripod that is like the gorilla tripod.

It was a standard screw in type. I didn't need the tripod so gave it away. I never used it, but it seemed really cheap and flimsy.

just bought it, yes, it has a screw hole for a tripod. Don't buy this if you plan on video or images in low light. Works fine outside in the daytime, but not well inside with lights on.

There is a bolt threaded for a standard camera mount. I have purchased an adapter to attach my tripod head because it has very limited use with the camera attached directly to the dolly.

I cannot see how the unit itself attaches to a tripod.....maybe I am not understanding the question.........

Not really. I have to unscrew two screws from the Opteka base plate before I can attach to the tripod. Only takes less than a minute but sometimes annoying.

No...the adapter is separate. It mounts to any standard tripod, which are very reasonably priced.

No I had to build a system to attach it to my tripod. Not to difficult, there is a half inch hole in the bottom of the handle that will let you build one.

No it comes with the screw for the camera built in. They may make a quick connect for it but you dont need it unless youre in a hurry to take it on and off?

It came with a plate for anything that you want to mount that has a standard camera connection. ie: cameras, spotting scopes, etc. This is NOT a professional tripod but for the cost it should suffice for about 90% of the people needing a tripod for the occasional use. If you want a better tripod look into the Slik brand. That being said, I am happy with my purchase, for my intended use.
