Can you tilt the camera straight down at the floor while using this tripod?
Asked by: Rachael
You can but the legs will be in the photo. I would recommend this Manfrotto tripod where you can turn the center column 90 degrees and get the camera away from the center of the tripod so that the legs won't be in the image. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1175934-REG/manfrotto_mk290dua3_3wus_290_dual_3_way_head.html

Is it convenient/possible to attach a sandbag to this tripod for extra wind resistance?
Asked by: Judith
This tripod does not have a hook so you could either attach a tripod hammock to the legs to add a sandbag or other weights/gear or you could throw a boa bag over the legs around the center column.
