Can you attach another head on it? Like a manfrotto fluid head? Is it a 3/4 inch thread on top?

Yes it is 3/4 inch thread I put my http://www.amazon.com/Manfrotto-MH055M8-Q5-Photo-Movie-Release-Tripods/dp/B004T3IJC0/ref=sr_1_13?ie=UTF8&qid;=1396881520&sr;=8-13&keywords;=manfrotto+photo+video photo video head on it and it works great.

It can be attached to any standard 3/8 16 threads per inch tripod. Preferably a sturdy one because the though the panning is very smooth there is a little resistance, even with the lock screw loosened, at the end and can cause slight bounce back at the end of a horizontal or vertical pan.

I don't have or know much about that tripod, so it might have issues with weight. But from a mechanical standpoint, you can mount this jib on the top of the fluid head and it will work. A much better method would be to add a Manfrotto 75mm bowl adapter and a panning head. Then you would remove the fluid head, and install the jib w/pan head. Of course, now we are getting into enough money that you should consider a better jib.

I have absolutely no problem. I use all Manfrotto tripods, monopods, heads, and QD plates, and they all work fine. You did not say if the thread was too small, too large, or not cut correctly. The standard is 3/8 and you may have a tripod with 1/4-20, if so you can buy a thread adapter at any camera store, or at Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/Manfrotto-088LBP-Adapter-4-Inch--8-Inch/dp/B001CZUSUE/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid;=1376920249&sr;=8-5&keywords;=tripod+3%2F8+to+1%2F4-20+adapter

This monopod has a 1/4" screw and most ball heads have a 3/8" thread. So you need a 1/4 to 3/8 adapter before you can use many of the common ballheads found on amazon or elsewhere 2x 1/4" Female to 3/8" Male Adapter for Tripod and Camera and Qr Plate/adapter Brass - This is what you need

This has standard threaded holes, both 1/4 and 3/8, in the center and on both ends (in case you want to use two tripods and make it more stable). Also note that the legs on both ends may be taken off.

The very top of most tripods is a 1/4 screw so you can screw on a camera direct or any female 1/4 item. It's built in - not an adaptor or accessory. I've put a 5dm3 on it buts it's really flimsy and obviously cannot rotate like a fluid ball head could but it'll work in a pinch

it is not possible to just remove the head and put it on a tripod because of the way it attaches to the monopod. It's essentially a giant screw on system that is removable and interchangable between manfrotto monopods.

No, I am sure that your manfrotto tripod does have 1/4-20 thread that fits with holder. Did you use YouTube video to watch how to fit it with tripod?

If it has a 1/2 inch pipe thread, some bigger tripods may use a 3/4 inch pipe thread, but you can buy an adapter if you need it 3/4 to 1/2 inch pipe.

Hello, Thank you for your interest in our products! This mount has a 1/4-20 thread female hole on the back side, which can mount right onto ANY Standard Regular Camera Tripod, Ball Head or Camera Accessory by simply rotating it on the 1/4-20 Male thread protruding out of the top of your tripod. It will be a rock solid connection because this mount is made from *all metal* construction and directly mounts to your tripod head without any additional accessories or purchases. We would be glad to answer any other question you have, just send us a note. Best, iShot Products Inc - Customer Support Team

You can. I have. But most heads, complete or just the clamp, will not nest completely for closing and transport. If that doesn't bother you, and the tripod with new head fits in the case, go ahead.

Possible yes. Would I recommend it, not a chance. If you want interchangeable heads then get a set of legs designed for them. This tripod works reasonably well as is, but it's not really designed to have interchangeable heads. Once you start messing with it to change the head, I'm pretty sure you'll find that what you end up with is a lot of slop/wobble/play regardless of what head you have on it.

I'm using a Dolica B100 ball head for which I had to buy an adapter bushing (1/4 to 3/8). It does add some weight but the quick connect- disconnect makes it worth it. I'm not familiar with the Manfrotto head but it should have the same considerations.

I tried 2 washers for a bit more clearance works on slim heads, but haven't found a good solution to attach it to a rig or straight to a high hat, I hardly use it because of the same issue... in retrospect i should have bought the manfrotto one

Every tripod head uses either 1/4" 20 or 3/8". Therefore, since the Giotto MH621 has 1/4" 20 or 3/8" threads on the bottom, you will be able to put it on this head. If you need a 1/4" 20 to 3/8" adapter, they're super cheap on here, but I don't think you need one.
