Of course, if you extend the cross beam to its maximum you'll probably need something like Chuck mentioned to keep the stand from tipping over.

Thanks, Stan... definitely something I need to consider.
My camera (the Canon HF S10) is said to have a weight of 1.1 lbs. That's almost hard to believe because I thought it feels heavier than that.
