What are your opinions on this tripod? I'm thinking of using it for both video and photos.

It's pretty light weight capacity......
13 pounds isn't enough? Gosh!

13 lbs. is not much - as a "rating" ......
I have had a Benro C-2691EX for quite a while which has worked very well for me. It is carbon fiber so very light, it has good height but compresses small to travel, one leg unscrews to become a monopod, and it was inexpensive. It probably is not as sturdy as heavier tripods but I wanted the light weight and height, and have taken thousands of very sharp photos and videos with it so it is sturdy enough. Right now I am using it with a Canon 7dii, 300ii 2.8, 1.4 extender and jobu Gimbel Head which it easily handles.
