The Manfrotto 290 Xtra Aluminum Tripod with 128RC Micro Fluid Video Head pairs a 3-section tripod with a lightweight head designed to support loads up to 8.8 lb. The system weighs in at 5.6 lb and offers a minimum shooting height of 15.9" and a maximum height of 67.5" with the center column extended. The tripod's 3-section legs have flip locks to individually change the height of each leg, with each lock's tension adjustable to help maintain a tight lock over the tripod's lifespan. Four leg angles allow you to position the tripod in a variety of ways, with rubber feet providing traction on slippery surfaces. To aid in carrying the tripod, a rubber grip is provided on one of the legs.

Not being an expert on tripods, could this one also be used as a regular fixed tripod for taking photos?
There is nothing to stop you from taking photos while using this head, however the camera will only align in a landscape position. To turn the camera in to portrait you will need an L-Bracket such as the Manfrotto Q2 L Bracket.

question
I cant seem to get the fluid head off the tripod.... any help?
Loosen the set screw under the base of the column. Tighten the pan adjustment knob of your fluid head and give it a quick turn counterclockwise to unscrew the head.

question
Hello, by mistake break the Assembly Sleeve of this model, which is the spare part that I must buy?
Hi, Gustavo I have a pleasure to answer your question. Well I think you can just buy another sleeve for thus model and your tripod will work normally. Or for safety you can buy an other head with the sleeve and you will have extra assembly just in case if you lost something else. Hope my answer will satisfy your choice to do.

Would this tripod work well for scoping ocean birds in flight?
Well I think this tripod work very good. And I was exactly shooting with mine in construction in Hati, you can customize any position you want with this tripod. It's a good deal so I thing yes he can work well for scoping ocean birds easily.

question
How does one keep it from unscrewing when panning left? I can't figure this out. Frustrating.
If you look on the underside of the top plate that the head is screwed into, you will see a single set screw. Using a small flat head screwdriver, tighten that screw.
