Q: 4. Will this support a Nikon D610 w/Nikon Nikkor 28-300 lens hands free?
A: I am not sure why do you want to use this tripod with that system, I under stood that this tripod is for mainly for macro photo or table-top photo, I'd rather go regular size tripod if I use your lens, How about check your gear weight and tripod spec?
Q: 5. What is the minimum shooting height with this tripod
A: The minimum shooting height on this tripod is 8 inches.
Q: 6. Is the included head the SH-747 or the SH-747FC (friction control)?
A: The Slik Pro AL-323-3W Aluminum 3-Section Tripod with Arca-Type 3-Way Pan-Tilt Head comes with the SH-747 head, not the friction control version.
Q: 7. How smooth is the head? Would like to use for wildlife video and need decent smoothness. Nothing professional, but would like it to be decent.
A: It is not too bad. Keeping the tension bolt tight can cause some rough movements. Too loose it will fall. It can be done with right adjustment
Q: 8. Would this support a Nikon D750 with 24-120mm lens?
A: I'm not an expert, but I'm guessing it would. It's very sturdy, and I use mine with a similar sized camera, out in the woods, at all kinds of odd angles. So far the camera has not shifted position once.
Q: 9. Can you replace the quick release plate, or use the one included, and mount a camcorder to this tripod?
A: my Sony camcorder has the same female thread as my cameras so I mount either or to the quick release. Also I modified a monopod to fit to the thread so I can shoot over people in front of me.
Q: 10. Will this fit a variety of (inexpensive) tripods? I have a Tragus TG-P60T.
A: The Velbon Aluminum End Hook (Chrome) is designed as a replacement hook for Velbon tripods. It is not listed as compatible for use with third-party tripods such as the Tragus TG-P60T Tripod.
