It extends out to 54 inches (137 cm). It was originally made for a video camera so it's robust enough for my camera. Despite that it's aluminum and doesn't weigh much of anything.   The square piece screws onto the bottom of the camera and simply clips in the top of the head. It can be removed from the tri-pod in 2 seconds. The tri pod does not have the adjustments that an expensive one does but I do not need all of that. The head only tilts one way so I have to flip the camera around depending whether I want it to point up or down, but as noted, 5 seconds tops. It's fully adjustable up to 90 degrees for portrait shots.   [ATTACH]60354[/ATTACH][ATTACH]60355[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
