The tripod has (unlike the 15 more expensive original GoPro Tripod) a tripod screw, so you can also use ordinary cameras so! Even a good 1KG heavy DSLR can thus hold (eg for festivals to film the masses / photograph) However, if you do so, only the outer, thick tube ausfahen in order to prevent twisting. Because the tripod consists only of quite thin aluminum (structure as the radio antennas of RC cars, only thicker) A GoPro you can but fully ausfahen without risk!
Also good: the end of the stand is again a tripod thread .. Thus, you can set the tripod on a tripod: D (eg an extension)
The Neigpunkt can not set free, but he will click into place and is tightened by hand screw. For the price top!
