Can you screw it into the sand AND use the tripod for additional support?

I haven't used the screw option yet, but that is one of the reasons I purchased this one it would do both.

you can do either or but not both. The pole has the ability to be screwed into the sand or it can slid into the tripod base.

I'm not sure - you probably can. It's a great shade and we use it for my son's soccer and baseball games. Very portable.

Yes, It's a tripod. But dont' use it. Get a stable stand. The tripod is not stable

yes you can as long it (the tripod) is wrapped around a pole or object. the camera cannot be vertical with the tripod standing.

Yes you can. It can be tricky to mount and un-mount and also you have to be careful with putting too much weight on one end while on tripod. But it works fine.

You want to fix this steady mount to another tripod of monopod mount, and THEN attach a camera to the steady mount? I'm not sure that's feasible, or necessary, but I could just be misunderstanding your question.

The unit does NOT have a built-in tripod mount, which I agree is a design flaw. I would NOT drill and tap a hole into the base since the base has metallic parts in it that may serve as a counterweight for the stand. There are two other options. (a) Purchase a standalone tripod mount (e.g. Promaster or equivalent - visit your local photography shop) and fasten it either with epoxy glue or heavy-duty velcro. (b) use a heavy-duty rubber band to hold it in place on the mounting plate of a ball-head tripod head.

Yes. On the bottom of the rig, there is a place to screw in a quick release from a tripod. I just used it on a tripod in a shoot I did last Monday. Worked great.

I have never used the tripod on the beach. I am sure it would work if it were not too windy, but the model I purchased has a sand screw attached. You do not need the tripod part for the beach. Just make sure you purchase the right model because not all models have that part.

Yes, this bracket can be mounted to a tripod. It's a bit shaky with a camera and a flash mounted on the bracket so make sure you have it mounted on a sturdy tripod.

Yes. The combined weight of your setup is about 2.5 lbs, and this tripod can hold up much more than that.

Maybe. It would stab into the ground and hold pretty well, but I'm not sure about sand. Sorry.

YES you can. You can mount it on a Tripod. Unfortunately, I have a Steadicam system and since its base plate is not long enough.... I had customized a release base plate for it..... to hold it durably.

No I had to build a system to attach it to my tripod. Not to difficult, there is a half inch hole in the bottom of the handle that will let you build one.

Yes, but I wouldn't advise it. There are some tripods that are designed to have one leg used as a monopod, but this one isn't.

No it might be possible to rig someyhing up so you can but it's not designed for a tripod. hope that helps

This little camera CAN'T be used with a tripod unfortunately. You might be able to jerry rig something but I wouldn't really recommend it. It's still a fun camera to own though.

No, there is no tripod screw hole. You would have to modify something to accommodate that.
