Q: 6. MT055CXPRO3 or MT055CXPRO4? Trying to decide between these two. Thank you!

A: Choosing the 3 you will have less legs to extend and collapse which can be annoying as it is. Also less legs allow for a more sturdy tripos as appears to the 4. Between the 2 there is not much difference in fully extended height and collapsible height. I would go for the 3. If anything I would be questioning th need for carbon fibre. If you need a real sturdy tripos go non carbon fibre, the more weight the better for longer exposures!

Q: 8. How stable is it with a video fluid head when panned left/right. Some very light tripods have had a tendency to lift up on one of the legs as I panned with a dampened head?

A: Not the best choice but workable . The more resistance you dial into the fluid head the worse it gets. I've resorted to using my left hand to press down on the legs as I panned with my right. In this situation heavier is better. you could add weight to the legs. Three Matthews Boa bags, one on each leg, would improve the performance noticeably.

Q: 9. Is the total weight 2.2 with the ball head mount?

A: Correct and offers a payload support of 17.5 lbs.
