Yep, tripods are used to support a camera, camcorder, telescopes, etc.
The PocketPod will work fine for a pocket-sized camera for what you want to do. Be extra careful so it doesn't topple over. Small electronic devices like cameras are not very tough when it comes to falls.

Used Sony Digital Camera Can be a Good Buy
Sony has been making quality photography equipment, as well as other home electronics, for many years. In some cases buying a used Sony digital camera may be a better buy than a new one from another manufacturer.
There as a few things, however to look for when buying a used Sony digital camera, or most other digital cameras to make sure your investment is sound and you are getting a camera that still works like it was designed to work.
First, look for signs of water damage. This is the number one killer of electronic equipment and usually the one type of damage that voids a warranty faster than smashing it with a hammer. Look for signs of rust on a used Sony digital camera in or around the memory card slot, the battery compartment and the tripod attachment slot.
Also check the memory card for availability. One of the biggest complaints of buyers of a used Sony digital camera is the unavailability of memory cards with larger storage capacity. Even if there are not any available several companies make adapter cards so that one type can be adapted to fit another. If larger cards or adapter cards are not available for the used Sony digital camera you are looking, consider if it will be a problem for you in the future.
Completely Test Before Buying
If you are buying a used Sony digital camera from a private source, and even if from a dealer, make sure you can test it properly and make sure it works as claimed. If you are told the battery died and it can be tested, either walk or run away, or offer to pick up a battery so you can try it out. If the person hedges at the offer, it could be a sign the camera does, or does not do, something it is supposed to do.
Depending on your intended use for the camera, does it include the accessories you would like to have and, if not, are they available in the market? If the used Sony digital camera is an older model it is possible the accessories were never made for this model and a different choice may be in order.
With Sony’s reputation for quality, buying a working, used Sony digital camera is usually a safe deal, but being cautious is definitely advised since you probably will not have the added benefit of a factory warranty.
