Just a quick question or two on tripod head thread sizes for a project I am working on.

If I am correct most tripods connect to the tripod head via a 3/8" 16 or 1/4" 20 UNC thread? Then as a standard most DSLRs connect to the tripod plate via a 3/8"?

Also is there a standard of how deep the screw thread is in the camera body?

And finally, is the footprint of tripod heads most commonly 60 and 70mm?

Thanks.
