This is an overall good tripod for beginners and is great for traveling, if it were higher, it would suit my needs greatly! However, 40" is still an okej height to do some good filming and pictures!

Although it doesn't say it in the camera details, this tripod is compatible with your Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W530. Overall, this tripod is a must, though for portrait pictures, especially outdoors where the scenery is as much a part of the picture, I think the tripod needs an additional 12" of height. I bought this to replace an older tripod, which secures the legs with a cumbersome screw-clamp. I was very pleased to find that the legs on this tripod secure by a lever-like pressure-clamp instead; much easier to work. I also love that this tripod comes with a bag for storage, so it doesn't get dusty and dirty. The bag, however, is not as easy to work with, and though it can be worn/carried, it's not really designed for that.

Just be aware that the maximum height is only 39", as others have commented on.

I went to Japan for three weeks. It didn't take much space in my luggage. I recorded a documentary on TV with my Sony handycam (HDR-XR150)while I was there,and this tripod came in handy. I don't know if it's the way I set my camcorder on the tripod, but I had to hold the lever occasionaly to hold my compact camcorder steady. I've never owned a camcorder before, and it took a while to take video of any object. So I was very happy to find this product. It helped me to take good video more than once during my trip.

I use this tripod to take stills off of my HDTV screen for a project. It works perfectly. Right size, easy to maneuver and quality construction.
Couldn't be more pleased!
