QuestionWill this tripod work for a guerrilla Pochade box for plein air painting?
Asked 5 years ago by DYg.
- Answer As long as your pochade box is tripod ready... I bought it to use with a Sienna plein air rig... I love this tripod. The connection is metal not plastic. Very sturdy legs, they don't bend. Not a fan of all of the screw in and out vs the clip release for the leg extensions but small price to pay considering those clips break at some point. I tried them all out in store. I've been on several plein air trips and some live event painting... I would go for it!

QuestionI'm looking to start film making, and I have already purchased a Manfrotto 502 Video Head, Would I be able to attach that to any tripod?
Asked 8 years ago by Allison.
- Answer I think a 502 has a 3/8" thread, so kinda of, if you get a ball adapter for that type of tripod or a bushing if the tripod has a 1/4" thread. I would say however, you probably want a substantial tripod with that head. You probably want at least Manfrotto 055 legs at a minimum. It also depends on how much weight your setup weighs.
