Q: 1. I have a question about this tripod. I'm on a budget, so I'm not looking to spend a ton of money for a tripod. The specifics state that it has retractable spikes. I'm looking to purchase stainless steel foot spikes as well. Does that mean that the spikes for that tripod are removable, and can be replaced with other types of spikes?Let me know when you have a moment.

A: Unfortunately, no, the spikes in the Sunpak 6601UT Tripod are not replaceable. The rubber tips on the bottom of the tripod simply twist to give you the option of having rubber on the bottom when you are shooting indoors on flat surfaces (wood, concrete, tile, etc.), whereas the rubber tips can be screwed up to expose the built-in spikes that would be used for outdoor surfaces like grass or ice.

Q: 9. Is there any way to make this to be controlled wirelessly?

A: Yes, with the purchase of the CamRanger PT Hub AND the purchase of the CamRange (not the MP-360 & not the PT Hub, online searches can get confusing).The CamRanger provides the wireless connection to an iPad (any iOS device running latest iOS) and allows remote control of the camera functions by itself, but does not provide remote control of the MP-360. This device costs about $300-$350.The PT Hub connects the MP-360 to the CamRanger so the MP-360 can be controlled from an iPad using CamRanger application. This device costs about $120. Both the CanRanger and the PT Hub are needed to wirelessly control the MP-360 motorized tripod head.The CamRanger web site indicates an Android version of the CamRanger software is in the works.
