Q: 1. what tripod would work well with this?

A: I use this with a Manfrotto 055XDB tripod with a Manfrotto 498 ball head. I suggest a fairly sturdy tripod since extending the sidearm with a camera will put more imbalance than you might think. I also suggest a tripod whose legs can be adjusted for a wider stance as needed (that is, the legs can open wider than just one position). This is especially needed for shorter setups such as shooting down at something close to the ground where the leg length is not fully extended. The wider leg stance allows for more extension. Hanging a counter weight on the end of the arm that doesn't hold your camera would also work (keeping the center of gravity over the center of the tripod), but this adds overall load the tripod must bear.

Q: 2. What kind of tripod would you recommend mounting this to? I need to get a tripod that will allow me to shoot overhead. I primarily use a 50mm lens. Any help/advice on which product(s) to get would be much appreciated!

A: Any tripod that is tall enough to extend above you, preferably with as little adjustment of the center column as possible. Having a sandbag on a the weight hook under the column (or a clamp weight, in the absence of a hook) will also help immensely. Both of these things will allow you to keep the center of gravity low. And of course, you also want the tripod to be able to support the total weight of your setup. Depending on the height you need, either of these two tripods could be considered:B&H # MA058B ? Mfr # 058BB&H # MA161MK2B ? Mfr # 161MK2B

Q: 3. Can this be used with Manfrotto 141RC and Nikon D5000?

A: Yes, the Manfrotto 131D Side Arm - for Tripods (Chrome) may be used with your listed equipment.

Q: 4. Can 2 of these be attached end to end for a longer reach?

A: Both ends have male attachments and they are different sizes. Even if you could attach them together you wouldn't get a strong attachment, so the camera would wobble. Plus it would place the weight so far out of the center of gravity that the tripod would fall over.

Q: 5. How much weight will this side arm support?

A: I use it connected to a Gitzo tripod. With the arm fully extended, I can connect my Arca Swiss monoball head, Canon 5DII and a large lens with no problem. Hopefully this helps.

Q: 6. How do you install this on the minimax vest? I cannot find any installation guide on the internet and none is included.

A: To install the Easyrig Side Pouch for Minimax first pull apart the support bracket. Then feed the pouch along the waist strap, and over the bracket.

Q: 7. For anyone who's installed this, how do you 'pull apart the support bracket'? Via the bolt at the bottom? It just keeps turning.

A: The Easyrig Support bracket is two pieces. A metal bar attached to the upper left or right back if the vest and a bottom support tube [the part with the screw] on the waist of the vest. Push the bar up and out of the tube to create an way for the pocket to slide over the vests waist band to work with the Easyrig Side Pouch for Minimax System.

Q: 8. I want to use this for rooftop shots in cities. How much weight can it handle. What about combination of Cannon Mark iii & 70-200 mm lens

A: Unfortunately they do not specify a load capacity because it will vary depending on the tripod you are using and the head. However, if you are using a heavy camera and lens like you mentioned, you should use sandbags or a tripod apron to help stabilize the tripod. Please see the following links:http://bhpho.to/Y3MwpPhttp://bhpho.to/1nOcVhvWith the apron, you can place any weight inside such as your camera bag, a sandbag or rocks. Or you can just drape a sandbag over the leg of the tripod to help keep it from tipping.

Q: 9. Are any extra accessories needed to attach a DSLR to this side arm?

A: You would want a tripod head to attach to this. If you have a tripod with a head, you can take it off the legs and attach to the arm, while the arm goes where the head was. Then you use the plate from the head for your DSLR. Example below.

Q: 10. Can the Manfrotto 131D Lateral Side Arm be mounted on a ball head?

A: Yes, but i would highly recommend attaching it directly to the tripod, much more stable.
