Can you change the top part of the monopod ( i think its called ball head) with another thing that could hold an iphone 5?

You would need to direct your question to the manufacturer. I've not had the need to mount an iPhone on this device. Therefore, I have no clue regarding an adapter that may be suitable for the device in question.

The Veho Duopod's (tripod & monopod extension) can be used with or without the swivel ball head. It uses the standard thread size shared by virtually all manufacturers. You should not have any problem finding a smartphone "holder/bracket" wih tripod mount here on amazon.The Veho is an excellent and transportable setup for any small compact digital camera or phone.

No. You won't be able to screw the ball head onto the leg. Why would you want to when there are many monopods available some of which the 3 sides of the bottom can be splayed out to stabilize them.Clint

You would be able to if it was made properly. Unfortunately, this product is poorly manufactured and looks nothing like the photograph. The hooks that are supposed to attach it to the phone are made of cheap plastic, lack the metal liner the real iPhone ones have and will break off before you can actually get it on your phone. And I have experience fixing iPhones. Don't buy this crap.

This monopod has a 1/4" screw and most ball heads have a 3/8" thread. So you need a 1/4 to 3/8 adapter before you can use many of the common ballheads found on amazon or elsewhere 2x 1/4" Female to 3/8" Male Adapter for Tripod and Camera and Qr Plate/adapter Brass - This is what you need

I can only mount my iPhone horizontally. But the bracket is removable, so if you have another bracket with a standard tripod screw, you can use your own.

You want to fix this steady mount to another tripod of monopod mount, and THEN attach a camera to the steady mount? I'm not sure that's feasible, or necessary, but I could just be misunderstanding your question.

Yes, the top where the camera sits will twists 360 degrees if you want. The base also twists. It is on a ball and rotates or pivots from side to side. I took it on a hike and it was helpful to have the added stability of the monopod.

Not necessarily but if you want the ability to quickly remove the monopod then you will need a ball head with a quick release feature!

This piece will hold your iPhone (4S is what we purchased this for) on any tripod. All tripods have a 1/4 20 screw on them. All cameras, phones, etc. either have a place that will accept that screw end or you need to use the Glif which is an adaptor for your phone because it doesn't have that screw. Holds it still, works fine!

Friction on the ball and socket is all that might hold your monopod. I wouldn't leave it without holding it, even less with a camera on top. I do recommend this device, it's all most as stable as a tripod and a lot easier to use.

It does not appear to be replaceable. It is a rubber covering, similar to what is on a leg of a metal folding chair. It is glued on so it is not easily able to be removed. If removed, I doubt that a thread would be there. The monopod is very well built and I have used it a lot without any apparent wear.

No.. Cannot be converted to a proper monopod. The closest you can use as a monopod is as Eric has mentioned.

Bottom of monopod has a rubber cap installed. Does not seem to be removable without possibly damaging it.

pretty much....The idea of the monopod is more of a steadying device for the trail rather than a stationary device like a tripod. You can adjust the camera via the ball, but if you are intending to spend a lot of time setting up a shot you might as well get a tripod.

there is a screw on the top off monopod to attach camera but no swivel to move camera around

Yes, The ball head cann be replaced and the mount screw is 1/4" and 3/8th". I replaced mine to a manfrotto 482 (very small) head to make it even lighter. I have gone back to the original head for more strength. Love this tripod for travel!Herb Booth

Yes, I have both an iPhone 5 and an iPod Touch 5 Gen. They both fit the Steadicam mount equally well, very securely. And BTW, the Steadicam mount is of very good quality.
