Is the 3rd step of drag on the CX6 similar to the ...
Is the 3rd step of drag on the CX6 similar to the 5th step on the CX8 or is it less? Is the difference just fewer steps in-between or is it less drag overall?
Not sure why the Staff is saying that Miller does not list drag settings on any head? I bought a CX10 and the complete specifications for the entire CX series are listed on pages 8, 9, and 10 of the manual. B&H staff - do your homework! Here is what the manual shows: CX2, 6, and 10 - drag settings 1-3 are identical. CX10 adds more resistance in settings 4-5. For the CX8 and 18, all settings are about 50% more than the CX10. And I highly recommend the CX10: Huge adjustment range to accommodate any size camera, and smooth as silk.

I will be upgrading from a Benro H8. I know this head is WAY better. My main complaint with the Benro is, the maximum drag is really weak. I want heavy drag that you really have to push on so slow movements are highly controlled. Is the heaviest drag on this head really stiff?
Yes not only is the Miller more stiff at its maximum setting it also offers more steps in between the lightest and toughest setting.

Does a standard manfrotto plate fit in this head?
We're afraid not. This tripod has its own quick release plate system, it is not compatible with Manfrotto plates.

I have some old Bogen/Manffroto telescopic pan arms with rosette clamps. will these fit on the CX series head rosettes? they look similar but my CX6 tripod system hasn't arrived yet so I can't try it...
We cant know for certain without knowing the exact model tripod arm however it is usually safe to assume that it will not work. There is no universal standard rosette size/pattern for tripod arms and even Manfrotto/Bogen have a few variations of their rosette arm.
