Q: 6. Is this compatible with arca plates? I have a Fuji XT-5 with arca handgrip. Will this be compatible?

A: The Sirui KV-10 Pan and Tilt Head with Leveling Base does work with Arca-Swiss plates. However, you will need to make sure of the plate size of the grip. To be classified as an Arca-Swiss plate, you need to have a 45-degree angle on both sides. The dovetail spacing can be different between Arca-Swiss plates. The KV-10 head takes a TY55KS quick-release plate with a dovetail of 39mm, and the clamp range can be adjusted from 37mm to 40mm on the KV-10 head.

Q: 10. Does this head actually tilt up to 90 degrees? Its photo shows the thread mark up to 90 but the hole doesn't seem to go far as 90 but stops around 75 in both directions. Just wanting to make sure since I need the head to tilt up to 90 degrees.

A: Yes it does tilt 90% in both directions and the head will rotate a full 360% if you tilt 90% with the camera for portrait orientation on a tripod or monopod you cannot tilt the camera up or down,,,,if you set up the camera to tilt up or down with the 90% now you cannot tilt 90% for portrait orientation,,,,not as versatile as a ball head and as I have mine on a monopod not a tripod and i have my camera on the head set up for 90% for portrait shooting i just tilt my monopod forward or back for up and down shooting..
