Is this suitable for holding up a Canon Rebel DSLR (like the T4i) with a stock lens?

I am not certain. It seems solid enough but it may not hold the camera during rough travel or for long periods of time.

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.

I am using it with go pro cameras due to the fact this will not corrode as bad in the salt water on a boat. Also withOly Pen DSLR's while small, put an old bit of legacy glass on it, they are quite heavy, and its a push on that rig. I have to use some tricks to holda long old tele, but standard and short tele digital lenses are not that heavy. It works for the pen. Not light, not heavy. I like ball mount, it will not falloff the tripod, or the 1/4 inch stainless bolt rig if you DIY it, be careful with heavy weight. I have used it will old heavy telephoto lenses adapted to the Pen, butI end up having to rig a lens rest out of aluminum. Hard to find non corrosive hardware that is not at a meat eater of a price.

This is adequate for a standard camera and lens. The side screw clamp works well to hold tight. I bought this based on the price and pleased with how it works.I use this to bridge an iPad mini mount to a removable camera shoe for a tripod.

Yes, I've held heavier cameras with it, you'll find it can hold your T3i as we'll as external monitors, audio equipment and lights if necessary. You may wish to replace the screws that come as part of the unit, they are less substantial than the rest of the rig and you'll benefit from improving their quality.

I don't know why not.. it fits very well on my t4i. You need to use a tripod with it if extended to full length.

Bob, I love it. it is very sturdy and works just as well or better than the $20 "Hoodman " product I had purchased prior to this one. This $6.99 price is excellent and I have purchased another for another of my cameras.Yes it will fit Canon T4i as well as it fits my T3i.

Yes. This is an excellent tripod for any canon DSLR. It comes with the plate to attach the camera to the tripod. The website DSLRvideoshooter has a few video reviews of this tripod if you want more info.

Yes, I use it with my canon t4i. It works great for video and stills. I used this on a shoot in And could keep it on my shoulder all day.

Yes, it is stable once you put it on properly. But it is too small for larger lenses and other camera accessories. I wouldn't spend $69 for this thing. I am not sure if there is a better product out there for DSLR cameras and it's accessories.Bottom line, it is an usless product and cost is too high.

I use it for a Canon EOS, but usually keep hand on it or near to keep it from swinging too far. It seems plenty strong to hold the camera. The connection to the strap is plastic, but is well made and appears sturdy. Hope this helps and good luck.

No, it will not hold a camera and lens. I might if you used the Canon EF 40mm pancake lens. Its not very strong. Get the Manfrotto 244 Friction arm.

I have a Canon Rebel T3i and it makes a very snug fit. I have to pull and stretch to insert my camera but it does protect it against scratches and dings.

it wil fit it for sure, it has the same bolt that all tripods and cameras do. I have a T1i so i know the weight, this might hold the camera but i highly doubt it. I bet it will stay in place once if you dont touch the camera, but it if you need to touch the camera to take a pic the tripod will probably fold under the weight.

I don't know. I use mine for a canon eos kissx4 which is basically a rebel. It certainly seems like it could handle something bigger.

It absolutley should, without any problems. It held my Canon 50D, which I think is bigger than the T4i already, plus a battery pack.

I have used it with a Canon 5D and the Canon 100-400 and it's definitely strong enough to hold the weight. Whether or not it has enough weight/mass to dampen vibration is something you'd have to determine for yourself based on what you're shooting. I got this tripod to use at airshows and needed something as lightweight as possible to carry around all day. I'm very happy with the tripod and after a year of use and travel it has held up well.

To be honest I have not tried it with my DSLR. The legs appear to be sturdy though, and do grip to vertical objects. I am not sure I would trust my gripped Canon 7d on it though. I will try it today and get back to you :)

I think it is adequate for a small DSLR (I use a Canon EOS T3i). Not sure it would be enough for a full frame DSLR.

I have a Sigma 150-500 and your lens looks similar in size and unfortunately it will not hold my 7d, 5d mark II or canon rebel with this lens attached. It will however hold any of my cameras with the 100mm canon lens that I have attached to any of them. Cheers!
