what is the difference between this one and the Backpacker S? I see some of the S lines say discontinuted but are still on MeFoto's site
The Backpacker S is carbon fiber and goes up a bit higher and supports more weight.

Can this support a Sony a7RII?
Can this support a Sony a7RII?
Yes. As long as the combined weight of the Sony Alpha α7R II Mirrorless Digital Camera and the lens you will use on the camera (along with any other accessories -- flash, battery grip, flash bracket, etc.) weigh less than 8.8 lbs (3.99 kg), then yes, your camera/lens combination would be compatible for use with the MeFOTO BackPacker Travel Tripod.

Hey guys, I have the RRS camera plate on my Sony a7R. Would that fit RRS plate fit this ballhead?
As the Q Series Double Action Ball Head on the MeFOTO BackPacker Travel Tripod (Titanium) is compatible with Arca-Swiss type quick release plates, yes, the Really Right Stuff quick release plate should be compatible for use with the above tripod/ball head setup.

question
Will this tripod adapt to a pan/tilt head for use with slider? I have a Canon 80D and want to do some home documentary-style video.
This tripod is made for travel. I would use a standard tripod whenever possible as this tripod is not build for heavy usage.

question
can I clip my Peak Design Capture PRO clip on this tripod?
capture PRO clips to either arca or manfrotto plates, it's the regular capture plate that is arca-only. This tripod has a arca head though so you can attach any PD plate to it no problem
