Can someone out there give me an idea of the load capacity of this mount? Thanks

I've used this with a Sony Alpha and very heavy 500mm lens. (I've even used it with two cameras mounted at the same time.) I can't give an exact pound weight but it is a very stable mount and as long as you can balance the camera's center of balance properly, it will hold virtually any standard DSLR and lens.

It weighs around 6.5 or 7 pounds. Ive already mounted mine so I can't double check the weight but I'm pretty confident that it's around 6.5 or 7. Hope this helps.

Sorry I cannot be of any help in answering your question. I put the mount on a Remington .177 air rifle.

Please check the weight limit and plate dimension of the mount to see if it will hold your devise.

I contacted XMark and the technician said "125lbs" which probably means the safe working load versus the static maximum load. Based on its construction and mounting I'd say it could probably hold 200lbs, but everyone has their idea of "risk".

This mount is more known for its ability to hold heavy televisions than anything else. Rated for plasma. The plasma television I had was darn heavy. If the holes line up I would do it. Its rated for 165 lbs. I paid alot more for it too. Wow I just saw the price is incredibly low.

I installed one in my motor home to replace a huge tube tv. I mounted a 32" LED TV weighing about 12lbs. The mount has held up nicely while traveling. This is a very solid unit, I guess it can hold more weight but might require additional support of the TV in the stored position to keep from bouncing while traveling. My 32" did not require any additional support. I recommend this unit.

Alex, How did this mount work out for you? I'm thinking about getting it for flying in PA28s

I am eagerly waiting to hear about your experience with this mount. (I am also considering using it for a 42" Panasonic -stated weight 45.2lbs.) I have another articulating mount, a very expensive one, but it is seriously heavy--almost as heavy as the TV! And since I am mounting to the outside of a cabinet, I would prefer to keep the total weight down. Amazon states that the weight of this product is 2.5 pounds; is this correct? (The mount I have weighs 38 lbs.) I would also be interested to know how far the mount "sticks out" from the wall when it is fully folded back. Thanks.

How much does it weigh? The specifications say it's good up to 40 kg. That's about 88 lbs. Also, you need to check the distance between the mounting bolts. Max is 400 x 400 mm which is a little under 15 3/4 x 15 3/4 inches. (15.748 inches).

I do not have exact information now as I am away. However a small and basic mount should be OK. My friends actually just did them even without mount

No way - just like Jimmy said - don't do it. My LG 55" weighs 48 lbs & I don't trust it one bit. I'm taking it down as soon as my other mount arrives. 66LB load rating is false.

My experience with this mount is it does not support the advertised weight. My tv was 80lbs and it would not properly support it. 60 inches is over the advertised size. I would look for another option.

I have a Rode NT1A mounted on it which weights .7lbs. It holds it up without a problem. If you are using a shotgun mic you will need to buy a different shockmount, but it will hold it without a problem.

Sorry for the delay response,, but I purchased after market mounts so I am not sure on the mounts you will be using.

Not sure bud. My tv was 66lbs and sagged pretty badly. It's not the base plate that goes in the wall, it's the extended plate that the tv rests on. I would *guess* that 30 lbs might be ok? I went with. $200+ peerless mount and am MUCH happier.

Paul, I cannot answer that question, as I still have not ben able to correctly mount mine. Good luck.Joan
