A:AnswerIt does hold the camera but it is super small and a little flimsy. I did have to put on my sons highchair just to take a photos with everyone in it.
A:AnswerYeah, I believe so. I used it with a smartphone adapter and a iPhone 8 Plus. This tripod handled the extra weight allright. Just a little bit wobbly, though.
A:AnswerIt will fit - However, the Canon G series cameras tend to be a little heavier than the typical point and shoots. I would suggest the next size up to provide greater support. This tripod is really meant for the smaller and lighter weight cameras. I use it for my GoPro Session 5.
A:AnswerYes, this gorilla pod works with a majority amount of cameras just as long as the camera has a mount on the bottom (looks like a inverted screw hole, usually silver). Which for the Sony HER HD action cam, it does.
