Will this tripod be sturdy enough to hold the Sony HXR-MC2000N?

It might just make it because the Sony HXR-MC2000N weighs approx 6.4 pounds and this tripod can support weight of 6.61 pounds. I personally think its too close for comfort. I'd probably look for something a little more stronger. This tripod will really work great for weight in the 5 pounds and under, reason is because it will cause some shake or vibrate a lot with any thing over 5 pounds.

Yes, if you order the Sony/Minolta T mount adapter. It will require a VERY heavy duty tripod.

I think the tripods rated for 11 pounds so I'm sure It could hold it okay, I had this tripod for about six months now and all i can say about it is it's awesome!!!!

Yes, I believe so. It's sturdy enough. But please keep in mind that this is a travel tripod. So, it may not be as steady as the other regular heavy duty tripods. But for general purposes it's a great tripod.

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

It is very likely. This tripod is not stable at all and I had trouble getting it to stand at all. If you are looking to get a proffesional looking video. Look elsewhere for a tripod.

Yes. You might want to buy a sturdier one later, though. Not a bad tripod, just not the best.

I mount the celestron skymaster 15x70 on this tripod. It is very sturdy and would probably handle something heavier if I needed it to. The weakest link in the system was the tripod adapter that came with the binoculars. They are made of flimsy plastic. Which was easily fixed with some quick setting putty - http://www.loctiteproducts.com/p/13/6/epxy_putty/overview/Loctite-Repair-Putty-Multi-Purpose.htm

As Raymonte said, it is a very sturdy and strong tripod. My husband used an Olympus and his lens are pretty heavy. It is why he bought the Slik. He loves it.

I would not depend on this tripod to make the trip. Lots if plastic that does not hold together well. Only used mine around the house / yard and it started falling apart on day 6.

My guess is it would hold despite very small screws but would not work in windy conditions. That said, I plan to use the tripod for trips to Hawaii and Eastern Europe as it will fit into my suitcase. Helene

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.

If you can find a way to attach it to the steadicam and the monitor, it should be sturdy enough. I used mine to mount cameras, and I mounted the arm to a Manfrotto super clamp.

It's sturdy enough for your camera. My 70d with lens is almost double the weight and it works fine for me. It doesn't shake and I haven't broken it thusfar. I do recommend something heavier if you plan to film in windy/harsh environments.

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.

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.

NO! Definitely not sturdy enough for that. Great for a tripod but not for action shots.
