I assume it comes with only one quick release adapter. What quick release heads are compatible with this tripod and where can I get them?

I don't know. But I do know that although this is a quite good tripod for the money it will not replace a high quality tripod that a semi pro or pro photographer would use. In my opinion if you want to invest in additional heads you will quickly spend more than you invested in this tripod. You would be better off just buying this tripod again if damaged or you lose the head.

This ball-head has a 3/8" threaded adapter hole, so your tripod has to have this size threaded bolt, and the same number of threads per inch (standard threads in the USA). However, if your tripod has a smaller diameter bolt, you'll have to get an insert step-up adapter (try ACE Hardware, Home Depot or Lowe's). Unfortunately, if the thread on your tripod is metric you are kind of stuck. Hope this helps.

As far as I can tell, ther should be no issues with attaching another brand of BallHead or other tripod head, as there are the typical 1/4-20 threads on top, which is standard for any tripod I've worked with. Hope this helps, good shooting!

Hi, No you wouldn't need any other adapter, it comes with a standard mount plate that would work fine. However, I will say this tripod is intended for video applications with the fluid head; when I used it for still photography it annoyed me as it does not have some features most photography tripods have. I found I used this only for video applications and bought a nice photography tripod for non video applications. It is a good quality tripod for the price though! Hope that helps.

Yes, mine came with an adapter (2 years ago). Assume it still does. The center adjusting screw has a removable cap with a threaded hole that adapts to the tripod adapter.

I looked at my Rokinon monopod. Like my tripods, it has a shoe with a camera screw that detaches from the unit. I haven't ever given much thought to using a 'ball head' on a monopod.

Hello... did you buy any chance find out what kind of quick release works with the Canon 100 monopod? I noticed on the pictures posted on Amazon have a quick release after market piece but no information. I'm hoping you might have found one that works you can recommend?

This pistol grip comes with the QS-60 quick release plate. As far as we can tell, that's the only plate currently compatible with this tripod attachment. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact our sales department at 800-991-3350 EST. We thank you for your time and consideration!

The plates aren't based on the tripod. You have to buy a head separately. That should come with a couple of plates. This tripod isn't intended to be connected to the camera directly. Any Manfrotto ball head would work perfect and they sell these legs with different heads as a combo package.

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.

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.

The one I purchased for a few dollars more, included a separate tripod head mount piece adaptor. The connector/adaptor I received acts as an internal threaded female J-adaptor to hold the attached device, which then is twisted onto the external threaded tripod male bolt end screw of the extended handle, or could be twisted onto and fastened to the external threaded male head bolt mount of a tripod.

The tripod has the standard 1/4" screw thread tha most all cameras have (along with a "quick release". However, it appears that the gopro camera does not come with any means to attach a tripod ... without an accessory see: GoPro HERO3+ Black Edition Adventure Camera (Discontinued by Manufacturer) for the latest or GoPro Tripod Mount for the older "less expensive" version. It is a very good light-weight tripod.

I have found good luck with the Giottos line. Fairly inexpensive compared to manfrottos and the build quality is good. http://www.amazon.com/Giottos-MH621-Release-Adapter-Sliding/dp/B0010SIAV2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1421024986&sr=8-1&keywords=giottos+quick+release or http://www.amazon.com/Giottos-MH652-Quick-Release-Adapter/dp/B000SAKX90/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1421024986&sr=8-2&keywords=giottos+quick+release

I use a Manfrotto 234RC Monopod Head Quick Release with my monopod. Here is a link: Manfrotto 234RC Monopod Head Quick Release - Replaces 3229

No. The quick release is smaller on this tripod. You might be able to use a Manfrotto head.
