Q: QuestionIs this tripod sturdy enough to hold a 600 mm lens?(3 answers)
A: AnswerYes the manfrotto 290 will support a digital camera with a 600 mm lens, I have a Nikon d500 and I have a few lenses that way between 3 and 5 pounds my Nikon camera weighs just over 2 lb. One thing I recommend that I have that I use with my manfrotto 290 is a cradle type mounted onto the top of the tripod so when you have a substantial camera and lens it will allow you to Pivot the camera up and down in side to side which when doing animal photography it's the best way to go. I recommend on YouTube the gentleman who is on Amazing photographer and when it comes to doing any type of photography and the equipment he has videos that instruct you how to use it and he has videos that have great tips on how to do different types of photography. His name is Steve Perry. He is one of the most knowledgeable photographers out there.Answered by Photoguy

Q: QuestionIs it compatible with a Canon EOS R5 and a Canon XA40?(2 answers)
A: AnswerYes absolutely it will work with almost any camera brand out there, because they all have a standard 1 quarter inch mounting thread on the bottom of the cameras end most every camera and tripod sold for the last 100 years all have the standard 1/4 in thread on the bottom of the camera and every tripod has the quarter inch screw that screws into the bottom of the camera. That's one thing the industry did and it's standard so the manfrotto tripod will work with anything.Answered by Photoguy
