Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Is the head really fluid, i like my videos to be smooth?

A: Yes it's very smooth, great pan/tilt quality for video.(Just know it has no counterbalance, so if your camera isn't evenly balanced, it may move when you let go of the handle.Not really a problem for me, I just lock the pan/tilt whenever my hand isn't on the handle.)

Q: 2. I just purchased the vt-350. Upon inspection, it appears the head is slightly tilted on the column. Is there a way to adjust this. Its obviously tilted as I can slide a piece of paper on one side of the head, but the other I cannot. Any Advice?

Q: 6. is the tripod head removable?

A: It is not removable in the conventional sense, but it can be deconstructed although I would not recommend that. If you need to dismount the head, I would recommend instead purchasing a Hi-Hat Riser and a separate fluid head as I did to solve my problem. I use the Hi-Hat Riser with fluid head secured to the church's balcony rail for church services and the intact tripod for outside and chapel use where there is no balcony. I purchased both from B&H and they are working wonderfully well. The B&H technicians advised me which items to purchase and they were spot on. Hope this helps...
