Is there somewhere to buy a replacement pad for the foot of one leg?
Manfrotto usually sells the set of 3 rubber feet directly. Unfortunately, B&H does not sell those replacements at the moment.

question
Hi Folks,This tripod looks great, and I think it will fit my needs very well. But I notice the center post has a 3/8 x 16 bolt. Is there any way to adapt it to a 1/4 x 20 head? Thanks very much.
If the head you are using does not have a reducer bushing in place (allowing conversion from 3/8 to 1/4-20, via removal), you can use one of these pieces:Impact Small 3/8 Female Threaded Adapter to 1/4 -20 Male Threaded PostB&H # IMCA103 Mfr # CA-103

What do I need to buy to shoot overhead with this tripod (which extension arm and any other necessary brackets, etc.)? Thanks so much.
There are several options for shooting overhead such as this Manfrotto arm:
B&H # MA131DB MFR # 131DB

You will beed a head if you choose the Manfrotto arm.
Another option is this Photek arm which incudes a head:
B&H # PHT2500 MFR # TRI-X-2500
https://bhpho.to/3sRwcIg
The Photek arm extends to 32 inches which is about 8 inches longer than the Manfrotto arm.

Can you mount an iPad to the top of this trip-pod?
Yes, one can mount an iPad onto the Manfrotto 161MK2B Super Professional Tripod Mk2. The top of the center column in that tripod is a 3/8th inch mount. Many iPad connecting heads are available. One that will fit right on top would be the IK Multimedia iKlip 3 Video Universal Camera Stand Tripod Mount for Tablets::https://bhpho.to/2Wi1qu4

Yes, the geared post is also larger/sturdier to accomodate heavier loads than the 475b model.

Will the 161mk2b accommodate the Manfrotto Nitrotech N12 Video Head?
My engineer says the Manfrotto website says they both use a standard 3/8" screw/thread, so he says it looks like they are compatible.

I noticed verified buyer/reviewer "Kelley Shoots Food" has an image demonstrating a 90degree position on the center column. According to the specs this camera does not have a 90 degree feature. Does B&H offer and option to use this at 90 degrees?
