Oh Yea,, I've got two of them. I use them to keep fit running up and down the length of it to adjust the polarizing filter.

Don't see a problem so long as it has wheels fitted.

No it doesn't come with a tripod but they do include a free crane, which is only to be expected at that price.

Apparently the IS isn't up to much - effective enough but not too portable, being 2 tonnes of concrete....
