Q: 1. Is the 75 mm ball adapter mounted within the 100 mm ball assembly? Great Tripod.

A: The 100mm to 75mm ring is included in the box.

Q: 2. Is it possible to convert the clamp to accept Arca Swiss? Thanks

A: The SmallRig Arca-Type Quick Release Baseplate, B&H # SM2143B, would be suitable to adapt the Manfrotto 608 Nitrotech Fluid Head with 645 FAST Twin Carbon Fiber Tripod System and Bag to accept Arca-Swiss plates.

Q: 3. How durable are the twist locks when using in harsh conditions like rain, sand, mud etc?? I'm sure if sand enters the lock mechanism, it would be difficult to clean thereby creating a sandpaper effect internally.

A: This head is great in terms of performance size and weight but it is difficult to recommend in the situations that you described. The design has more components exposed to the elements than other heads (such as the 504X). This means it will require more maintenance and is more susceptible to getting sand and other debris in the mechanics. There is a lot that you can do to maintain it if you choose to go with this tripod (we also sell a lot of replacement parts for this tripod if necessary) however there are limits to how deep you can clean it without being a Manfrotto technician. I recommend considering one of the other Manfrotto models that does not expose as many elements Manfrotto 504X Fluid Video Head with 635 FAST Carbon Fiber Tripod B&H # MAMVK504XSFC MFR # MVK504XSNGFC Or a brand that is better suited for tough environments like Sachtler Sachtler aktiv6 flowtech75 MS Tripod System B&H # SAS2064SFTMS MFR # S2064S-FTMS

Q: 8. I submitted a question about the recommended dolly I said it didn't have the spreader. I was wrong it does have the spreader, so I need a compatible dolly and none of of my current ones will work. There is a recommended dolly, but i would like confirmation that it will work with my combo of 508 and included tripod?

A: You can use the Manfrotto 114MV Cine/Video Dolly for Tripods with Spiked Feet (B&H # MA114MV MFR # 114MV). Remove the rubber feet align the spikes with the dolly and lock them in place using the rubber latch. Please note that you will need to adjust the width of the legs to fit the dolly. once attached you can adjust the leg length/ tripod height as needed.

Q: 9. Can these legs spread out wide and low-angle?
