Sure a TT tripod like the manfrotto will hold a 67 with 105f2.4 for instance as 
long as it is horizontal and it is on a sure surface however it will not hold an 
LX + A100f2.8 macro still at full extension even on a flat table-top. My little 
Manfrotto goes with me always but it isn't often up to the job.
