Is this stable enough for camera use? Can it have a PTZ on the end of it for example and not sway or shake when the PTZ moves around?
The general rule is that what you put on the boom should be half of the boom's support weight. Which is 20 lbs.
So, a camera with the lens really should be 10 lbs. or less.

MiniMax weighs 44lbs. You are correct about the reach, It’s horizontal reach is at 8ft but can angle higher while sacrificing that bit of distance. Check out the info at www.msegrip.com

When completely collapsed and laying on its side, how tall is it off the floor? I would like to slide it under something in my truck.
The lowest profile of the collapsed Mini Max is 6.25" tall(laying on its back). Laying on its side the height is 7.25" due to the rocky mountain leg t-handle sticking up.
