Does this can be used with Nikon D5100/D5200 with heavy lens(around 8lbs)?

Unless they have fixed the problem with this tripod - the head is glued on, NOT screwed on, I would stay away from it. I had my camera on it and it almost fell on the floor. The company did, finally, offer to replace it, but I declined the offer and did not get my money back. I would not risk putting an expensive piece of equipment on this tripod. It's possible the company has a better build one which you might look into.

I use it with a video camera weighting about 5 lbs with the battery attached and if I leave the camcorder on the tripod unattended the camera tilts toward the ground. (It never fell off though). I would not recommend it for a front heavy lens.

The max load capacity of this tripod, according with specs printed on box is 13 lbs. I have used this tripod with my Nikon D5100, with a 55-300 mm telephoto lens mounted it, and I've had no problem.

Yes it will. Can be expanded to fit your D5200 with a 55-300 or larger lens as well. I carry my D3100 with 18-55 and a lowepro case attached carrying my 55-300 nikon lens. I can then switch around and carry the 18-55 in the lowepro case.

No. This tripod, in my opinion, is not sturdy enough for your camera and lens combination. Go with a heavier aluminum tripod, or a high-end carbon fiber tripod.This tripod is only appropriate for a compact "point-and-shoot" camera.

I use it with a Sony Nex 7 mirrorless with a Zeiss Touit 12mm lens. Camera + lens weighs about 1.5 lbs. Works fine.

It works great on my nikon d800. Lives up to its name "bigma". Is heavy to just tote around for long periods of time unless you have it in a bag.

I'm sure it could. I'm using it on my Canon D20, which is probably heavier.

I'm not familiar with that camera, but I just looked it up. The weight is 1.2 lbs? My Nikon D80 weighs about 3 lbs., so I would say yes, but use caution. It's a great travel tripod, because it's so lightweight and you get some decent height, but the top piece is plastic. It's probably intended for compact cameras and I do use it for my Samsung S4 more often than my Nikon, however, if you remain aware of it's limitations it's extremely useful. I use mine pretty frequently and I don't exactly have a delicate touch, however I'm careful not to change positions too quickly on it, etc. Hope that helps! :)

Probably not unless you removed the inner padding (which is easy to do, but obviously, decreases the amount of protection provided by the bag. I can sort of fit a Nikon D5100 with the kit lens attached (18-55mm) and the small 35mm (1.8 G) in the bag, but it's very snug and doesn't offer full protection for everything.

Not sure the exact weight but I use it with a Nikon D5100 and a Sigma 150-500mm lens and that is about seven lbs.

Hi Samit, I don't have a lens that large but if you screw the camera on snugly, it should work. The tripod itself is very study for what I've used it for. You can lock the top into place so I imagine it should bear the weight. Again, I haven't tried the extra weight on it myself, but it's worth a shot! Andrea

There is an additional tripod mount on the lens and it balances quite well. I have a D70 and a D5200 and the adapter ring for Nikon fits both.

Yes, most DSLR with reasonably big lenses will be stable. A stabilizing weight may be needed on the underhook.

It can but it wouldn't be ideal. When your camera is out on the ends of the slider there will be a little movement. Best if used with two Tripods. Not 100% sure on weight but I would say 6-7lbs

I don't know how heavy your d7100 is, but I use it with my rebel with at heavy lens. The reviews for this has been very good and I was impressed. It feels sturdy.

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.

I bought it to use with my SB-800s and some light modifiers. It holds perfectly.Than I test it with my D7000 and a nikkor 18-135mm, not so good. Too heavy for the socket.
