What is the max. weight capacity of the Slik Mini-Pro Table-top tripod?

I have used it with a Canon 70d camera and that was no problem. The Mini-Pro is really solid and appears to be able to hold more weight than the 2 lbs 1.5 oz. that the 70D weighs.

I have a Hawk spotting scope that is 19" long & weighs 4.5 lbs. Is this tripod sturdy enough to hold this scope steady?

I purchased it for my very heavy Canon 5D MarkIII SLR with a 24 to 105mm zoom. Works well.

I have this tripod and I absolutely love it. I have a Canon 60D and can cantilever it out over my subject without any problems. You will have more weight they me, however, the stand is equipment to attached a cantilever weight to stabilize the tripod. I don't think you can go wrong.

The user manual does not say. Total loading capacity is 7.0 kg. (15.4 lbs.). With the central column fully extended at 90 degrees, this capacity would be considerably less since the tripod would be badly out of balance. The use of a counterweight would be required and there is a hook installed on the column specifically for this purpose. You would have to experiment with various weights and positions to determine what works best with your equipment. You may also have a problem with vibration with the central column extended since there is a loss of rigidity. I would guess this would be more severe, the heavier the equipment supported.

NO! It will not bear the weight of that. The plastic leg locks will break and collapse, already tried it, don't risk an expensive camera on a cheap one-use tripod like this.

The weight of the tripod is about 8 lbs. which makes for a very stable platform but limits it portability. The rated holding weight for tripod and pistol grip ball head is about 17 lbs.

Gitzo site has it at 1.65 lbs. It feels very light but sturdy. I use it on a Canon 300/4 and 400/2.8. The monopod is very stable, even at its longest height. The last section is thin compared to the other sections but I constantly get sharp pictures shooting soccer. It easily fits in a sachel type bag. I would say if you shoot with long lens this is a must. The legs very quickly unlock and the top of the monopod will hold any lens. If you use a tripod head on top besure it is big enough other wise the range of motion will be limited.

The tripod is ver light wt and I do not believe it will hold up well in the long run. It is stable in a closed area with my Cannon ESO Rebel T5i attached. I have not used it much, prefer to use another heaver tipod. I do not recommend it as a primary tipod.

I use it at 100yards and have no problem. The only issue I have had is using it on the tripod. It's a little Shaking but to stop this I don't exstend it and put it on one of the tables.

The tripod is very sturdy. It's kinda heavy so I would say it probably will hold that much weight.. I bought a huge lens & keep it attached at all times.

13.6 inches min height when used. The legs do not turn upside down, which would allow the camera to be hung lower albeit upside down. Higher end / more pricey tripods may have this feature. Actually, to go lower I use a tiny tabletop tripod. Overall the Slik Compact II is solidly built, and I haven't had a need to bring my full height Slik tripod since I bought this smaller model.

I don`t know. The tripod had a leg that wouldn`t extend all the way so I sent the piece of crap back to Amazon and got a refund.

I do not know. I suggest looking at slik.com & asking the manufacture. This tripod is designed for dslr's & video cameras,so I do not think it is designed for heavy loads.

it has supported a canon 7d with 70-200 f2.8 and extender. this is about 10 pounds total. it is very sturdy. I suspect that the head that you choose, not the tripod itself, will be your limiter.

I recommend it for lighter point and shoot camera only, I have Sony hx30v PS camera and this tripod can't handle the weight of it.

I am not sure about the weight of that camera model, but this is one of the sturdiest tripods I have ever seen! Hope this helps!

Minimum is 6.5 inches. Maximum is 7 inches. Measurement is from table top to top of tripod's optic insert. Mine is used on a Konus 20-60x80 spotting scope and is stable. I would have preferred a heavier duty tripod but this is the sturdiest I could find available. It does a good job for my limited use.
