I have a 1540, and it works fine with my D4 and most short lenses. Not very suitable for high wind conditions or anything longer than 105mm, however. While I've perched a 70-200 on it, I wouldn't recommend it. The heavier the weight, the more susceptible it is to vibration and wind load. For a mirrorless setup it should be plenty sturdy. I use an RRS BH-40 head with it. While the legs are capable of folding back over the head, if you plan on doing that, make sure the head is small enough in base diameter to accomplish this. No way a BH-40 is going to manage that, but the cameras I put on it are pretty beefy and I needed a head that matched the gear I was using. I simply bought a small Giottos monopod bag for this rig, which works just fine.
