## Questions & Answers

**Q: does it hold a standard canon camera and would it work as an overhead view on a camera**
A: Not sure what kind of Canon you have.  I wouldn't try it with a D5III and a 24-70 lens as the combination may be too heavy.  But if  you use a point and shoot or GoPro no problem.

**Q: Will this give me an overhead shot (for unboxing videos, perhaps,)**
A: I returned this model and got the double armed heavy duty version. This can't handle any weight. A 5lb light extended would fall because the lock does not have grooves like the heavy duty version

**Q: How do attach a speedlite? Does it come with a cold shoe bracket?**
A: It does not come with a cold shoe bracket.  Numerous accessories are available, including a flash shoe mount http://www.amazon.com/Manfrotto-143S-Flash-Shoe-Magic/dp/B000XUPUDY/ref=sr_1_2?s=photo&ie=UTF8&qid=1460228825&sr=1-2&keywords=manfrotto+flash

**Q: How would you attach an iphone to this tripod arm?**
A: You are going to need a lot of duck tape or gaffers tape or maybe a super clamp and a tripod phone mount.Check this out. http://www.amazon.com/Grifiti-Universal-Adjustable-Smartphones-Handlebars/dp/B018WKJZWS/ref=sr_1_81?ie=UTF8&qid=1464646118&sr=8-81&keywords=tripod+mount+phone
