The rig with all the parts is around 4lb. 13oz. Without the friction arm and swiss rods it's 3lbs. 8oz.

I had use it with about 20 lbs load (dolly wheels, video tripod, fluid head, DSLR camera w/monitor) and it worked pretty good. I don't know what is its max load capacity though.

I don't know to be honest. My rig is pretty heavy though, at least close to 50lbs if not more and there's no issue.

I would not use this for video work. The head is not very fluid so you can not track well.

I personally would not trust a tripod this flimsy with a DSLR. The monopod does not have a head either. I returned the kit immediately after opening. I would also recommend seeing how much weight a monopod/tripod head is rated for. I purchased a head that would hold up to 11 pounds, in case I'm using a long lens. I'd rather the equipment be a little on the stout side, holding my camera. Best of luck in your shopping. Amazon has been great.

Mark L. It can handle the weight of a go pro. I would suggest mounting it to the side of the Radian.

That is the frustrating thing about this set up if you're just starting out building your gear kit. Its great together but taking that head off is pointless- however, you have options. While I reccomend buckling down, saving your cash, and buying the 502HD ($200) or 500ah ($170) to use on a tripod or slider, there are pan bases you can attach to the bottom of the 500 head like the feisol Pb-70. It has a 70 mm base which I believe will work with the 500 head you've got. However, it's clumsy and unreliable. Trust me. Appreciate that you have a great monopod setup, the best in fact. And that if you're considering a separate pan head for other video rigging, you'll want the 502HD, or the 500AH if you really must save $30.

It was faulty from the beginning and we had the power head replaced and it still didn't work and we finally gave up on it. I wouldn't recommend it but as far as the weight, I am not sure--but it wasn't too heavy. My husband thinks it weighed about 5 or 6 pounds. Good luck.

Its all about the weight balance on this one...the heavier the front end, the heavier the back end should be to counter balance ...however I never tried to hook up a rig to it as of yet....but I believe its possible.

I have a manfrotto with 502ah head and I add anorher 5lbs weight to balance my Canon 5Dmk3. No problem.

i have this Rig and it works great with my DSLR and a Prime ZEISS 50MM lens. anything above 6lbs, becomes kind of heavy for the arms. but the rig can handle 10lbs easy.

I am sorry, but I don't know how much video ram the computer has. I believe it is a built in video chip rather than a removable video card, but I am not sure. I suggest you contact the seller for this information on any computer you are interested in. My primary concern was that the computer run Windows XP, as the purchase was for a particular and singular application which required it, and all else was peripheral.

for a heavy setup. go for 2000 or 4000 and adjust accordingly to camera and where most of the weight is if your looking at it from the top. some cameras have more weight on the right hand side :)

Sorry this is so late, but hopefully this will help. As far as stability is concerned, this tripod won't let you down. However, for video, panheads just aren't the best way to go. This particular panhead is very smooth and will work decently for video and outperform most other panheads I have dealt with, but you're really going to want a different head for video if you intend to use this tripod. The stability and versatility you get with this tripod are phenomenal for the price. You could buy the legs only (around $100 right now on Amazon) and get a fluid video head (EI-717AH for around $75 on Amazon) and have a great video tripod package for the same price as the 700DX with the panhead. That would be the route I would go if I was planning on shooting video with my tripod.

Yes. The combined weight of your setup is about 2.5 lbs, and this tripod can hold up much more than that.

The wonderrig is great! With my camera, a canon 60d, it weighs a little under 10 pounds. I've used my rig in many different ways, it's very useful. Also, for the price it's very durable. If you're really going to be shooting a lot you will find yourself using this piece of equipment very often.

yes but its not very good... if you can afford a better rig I would buy it. This thing isn't great quality.
