Tripod capacity question

My current tripod is a Manfrotto 55XPROB aluminum with a Midi 498 ball head with an RC2 quick release, it has a rated load capacity of 19 pounds. I have a Canon T5i with a Sigma Contemporary 150-600 lens. Is this tripod stable enough to handle this combination?
Thanks in advance for your comments, R.J.

Need help with new lens

I finally got to the right person at Adorama and they referred me to Sigma and Sigma told me where I could find the tutorial videos on the dock to make focus adjustments on the Sigma 150-600 lens. Thanks every one for your help.

Acrylic Prints

Depending on the subject prints on acrylic can be very effective. I have seen several prints of prairie fire burns in the Flint hills of Kansas that are striking. I had one made of an abstract shot of the top of a blue vase that I like very much because it bring out the vivid colors. I used Adoramapix.

Screen Problem

By chance have you put a different eyepiece on (Hoodman or similar) I discovered that was my problem just before I sent the camera back for being defective.

I do not comment often but these are great shots and the one of the stone arch bridge is my favorite.

Transferring photos with captions attached

I am using Elements 13. I want to transfer an accumulation of family photos to flash drives to give to various members of my family. Is there a way to transfer these photos so that the caption for each photo is included?

I find that Yongnuo triggers work well, I have some of the older 603 models that I use with older manual flashes, although they do not use ETTL-II of course. The newer ones do, and generally have good reviews. I have Canon flashes and controllers that use ETTL-II and do a great job for remote lighting, and the Yongnuo ones seem to do equally as well at a lower price point by reputation.

Thanks for the information. RJ

I am looking to purchase flash triggers for use with my Canon 450D and a Canon 430 EX II flash. I am interested in using the flash off camera for fill light. I do not like the length limitation of some flash cords or the potential trip factor of long cords. I do not do studio work and at this time I am not really interested in using multiple flashes.
The Yongnuo 622IIC transvers sell as a set at a price I afford. There is also a 622C-TX which, if I have read correctly can also be used as a shutter release when paired with one of the 622IIC transceivers.
I would also consider other brand recommendations. Any guidance you can give me will be much appreciated. Thankyou
