Q: 6. What exactly does built in cable raceway mean? Is there a female or male XLR connection at the bottom of the pole?

A: Thank you for your email. the "raceway" is a channel in the pole that guides the cable to the end of the pole for easy management. This pole does not have a built in XLR connection or cable

Q: 7. Will the Shure 25DM mic holder fit on the end of the pole?

A: Yes, the Shure A25DM Mic Stand Adapter is compatible for use with the OZEN SoDi Carbon Fiber Mic Boompole.

Q: 8. One answer says you can run a cable through the pole. The other says you can’t? Which is correct, and if you can’t what’s the point of the cable raceway?

A: I understand the confusion regarding the raceway. But I don't see any exit for the cable at the top for a cable. Nor is there a opening for an XLR connector at the base.

Q: 9. Can you still use the mounting screw at the top if you feed a cable through? I don’t see where else the cable would come out if not through the top end.

A: You can't run a cable inside that boom pole. If you could it would have come that way. You have to run it outside the pole. Use Velcro to hold the cable in place so it doesn't bang against the pole.

Q: 10. Is this Head compatible with a Canon 6D?

A: The answer is Yes and No. The head cannot attach DIRECTLY to the Canon body or any other camera. It requires an Arca Swiss style mounting plate that stays attached to the camera body. A generic plate comes with the tripod. With the mounting plate in place the Canon (or any other camera) fits into the clamp on top of the ballhead. A few quick turns of the screw on the clamp will securely attach the camera with mounting plate to the tripod head. For the system to be efficient there should be a mounting plate that stays in place on every camera body and long lens with a mounting foot. The generic plate that comes with the tripod will do the job. A somewhat more secure solution is to get an Arca Swiss style mounting plate custom designed specifically for your camera. Two prominent manufacturers of custom mounting plates are Really Right Stuff and Kirk. My experience has been with RRS. The plates are not cheap but rock solid. I hope this helps b
