I don't see any informationon the weight limits of this head. Will this hold a DSLR with a normal zoom (250mm) lens fine? Thanks

Yes, I believe it should work well with the weight of a DSLR camera, lens and flash. It is a heavy duty design and quite durable.

No, it is not able to hold a dslr. I use it for my small camcorder and it works, but it can't hold much more

I am not too sure but all I know is I have a full size canon camera and it hold its weight with no problem. My camera weight about 6 pound. I hope this help.

I think it's sturdy enough to hold a heavy camera/lens combo like yours. I haven't had any problems with it, but that's an expensive kit you've got and it might be worth it to take a look at brand like Manfrotto. Just saying. After all, your camera gear is only as good as your supporting gear.

I'm sure it wouldn't hold the weight of a DSLR. I have a larger GorillaPod designed for micro 4/3 cameras and when I tried to mount a Canon 7D on it, it was very frustrating because the legs kept collapsing due to the weight.

It's holds my pro sized body nikon D-200 with full sized zoom. I took a look at the camera you asked about and it looks smaller than mine, so I'm sure it would work just fine :-)

hi,i experimented with several tripods before settling on a manfrotto but what I remember about this specific tripod was that it was lightweight, would not be able to handle support a DSLR with long lens and when full extended approx. 4' making it more unstable. Good price and rig for a smaller camera but did not make me feel confident. Also the action on the head did not have near the fluidity i require. hope this helps.

I don't the exact weight of your Canon DSLR. I know for a fact that this tripod will definitely hold an equipment that is just slightly over 2 pounds but no more. I have not tested this with an equipment weighing 3 pounds. It may be able to handle it if this tripod is standing on it's 3 feet on a flat surface. It might be a different store when you have this pod clip to a tree, branches, pole or other objects. Good luck.

if you need to hold something that is pretty heavy. I use it for a telescope. it would be silly for a point and shot camera. I would think it would work really well for a SLR with Zoom.

This mount will not be a good mount for a DSLR size camera. It works fine for a small point/shoot compact camera, but it is not sturdy enough to hold a 2 to 4 pound camera steady. I bought it to mount to a rifle scope and after some slight modifications it works ok for that, but my camera is a small Casio high speed camera. There are no adapters that come with it. WYSIWIG. There is a 1/4-20 mounting screw on the perpendicular bar that attaches to the bottom of the camera.

It is not made to hold the weight of a DSLR camera. It will hold a GoPro or something comparable in size.

Yes the quick release plate will fit it and the camera isn't too heavy, but I would not put any heavy lenses on the camera. I usually half the load capacity of tripods for reasonable use, so for this one I would say 4-5lbs should be just fine.

Their website says it can hold 4kilos which is just under 9 pounds. Should be OK it holds my D600 and 70-200 solid.

This tripod is extremely sturdy. To be honest I have not seen a camera it can not handle. Not sure the exact weight but I am sure it will handle any type of camera.

I've used mine with a Nikon D200, which is right at the upper limit of its listed capacity. I have to set it up very carefully, and I use it for that camera only in an emergency. I wouldn't recommend it for anything heavier.

Yes, I attached mine and it is very secure. I use it with a Canon 500mm so it certainly handles the weight.

Yes. The small camera/lens mount cannot support the weight of a heavy lens.
