Can I use a Sony Handicam HDR-CX550V with this tripod?

You should be able to use any camcorder. The "platten" that the camcorder attaches to has the larger less common screw out of the package, but there is the more common and smaller screw included. It's simple to change the screws. A camcorder is dwarfed by this tripod, but the tripod is GREAT! I have never liked my previous tripods, and this one is awesome.

I don't think you should have a problem with your Sony Handicam. In my opinion, the VariZoom is very sturdy and is built like or is equivalent to the professional models of tripods (like the Manfrotto) so I believe it will definitely be able to handle the Sony. I have a Canon T4i that I use the VariZoom with and I find it actually swallows up the camera. For the price it is an excellent tripod to have.

I use this tripod with my Canon XH-A1 and a Panasonic AG-AC160A, which are much larger and heavier than the CX550 with no problems. It should work fine for you.

The quick release plate on this tripod has two different screw sizes, so it is likely that one of those screws will fit your camcorder.

I am not certain for your specific model but I found out the hard way that it is NOT compatible with the SONY HDR-CX430V - The grip has a half round plug and my camera had a small rectangle shaped plug - if you have the half round it should work.

I believe almost all cameras use the standard screw mount for attaching to a tripod. I can't answer 100%, but I would be very surprised if your particular camera wasn't compatible.

Yes, you should be able to connect to a tripod as the screw that holds the camera on the bracket has a threaded hole on the underside.

You could use the tripod with the iPhone 5 C but your can t use the case, so that mean you can t use the lens also with the iPhone 5c.

No absolutely not, that camera is too heavy for this tripod, the leg handles will break under the weight.

Hi Luis, Your palm-sized camcorder (HXR-NX30E) will work on this remote control tripod since your camcorder has an A/V remote connector port. Ely

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

Yes. You can use most heads for this tripod. I swap my Jobu gimbal and Acratech ball head interchangeably.

Depends which tripod dolly. Most can usually work, but you might want to ask the manufacturer of the dolly.

It should work with any tripod as I have used it on my other tripod without any problems.

I don't see why not, it bolts up to the base stand. If your tripod has a 90 degree mount it should work.

I would imagine that this could be used with any tripod which uses either a 1/4" or 3/8 inch camera mounting plate screw. You'll need to screw the Sony camera plate to the Manfrotto mount and then the Manfrotto plate to the bottom of the camera.

It won't work because you need legs that have a 75mm bowl due to the "75 mm diameter half ball" feature of the head for leveling. This way the tripod head sits in the legs. I would recommend these legs: Manfrotto 535 Carbon Fiber 2-Stage Video Tripod with 75mm Bowl (Black)

Yes - there is another screw tripod mount on the bottom of the hand strap attachment. It's a bit bulky afterwards, but it does work.

Any standard camera tripod (this is a standard camera tripod) can be used with any standard camera (such as the Finepix). A very heavy camera (not this one) would require a more robust tripod. The thread of the mounting screw on the tripod matches the hole on the camera.

Don't know for sure, but I would assume it would work with any camera that can be used with a regular tripod.
