Q: 1. Does the bubble level illuminate?

A: The bubble level is not illuminated.

Q: 2. Is the mid spreader removable?

A: Yes it is. The mid-level spreader is removable on this tripod.

Q: 3. I have owned the H8 model for a few years now and there is only one thing that has been disappointing. The maximum drag is not nearly enough. Does this model go from no drag to a good, heavy drag?

A: I'm very happy with the resistance provided with the pan drag. I tried a Manfrotto product prior to purchase and my decision to purchase the BV 10 has made me very happy.

Q: 4. Is it normal for the fluid head to make a clicking sound internally every time you adjust the drag up or down?

A: It is perfectly normal to hear clicks or pops when you are adjusting a video head as the pieces inside align with themselves. What you do not want is any sound once you are recording.

Q: 5. Can I use ground spreaders for this BV6?

A: Yes. The spreaders that come with this tripod are attached to the top third of the tripod legs. We love this tripod - very smooth fluid head.

Q: 6. Besides the 2kg difference in load capacity, are there any other major or key differences between the BV8 and BV10? Will I be sacrificing more than just load capacity? Is the BV10 just overall better-made?

A: The 2KG/4.4 Pound difference in load capacity really is what sets the BV8 and BV10 apart. They are both well made tripods, it would just be a matter of if you need that extra bit of load capacity for your set up.https://bhpho.to/2ozfv7d

Q: 10. I have a Canon C300 Mark 2. Do you think this tripod is a good enough option?

A: I use it with a RED Weapon and have used it with a BM Cinema and it handles the weight fine.

It seemed to be the best option even against a few products priced a bit higher.Have been very happy with it.
