I bought this monopoly as I needed a support that can be used anywhere without setting up first, I prefer to walk and shoot, sometimes in a town centre so a tripod would not do the job. I use a bridge camera, not heavy true, but due to an illness I cannot support the camera too long so this monopod is my way of overcoming illness to carry on with a hobby I have had for years. The first attraction was the name, Manfrotto, a name used by many photographers, I was surprised how much the monopod weight, but the quality stands for itself. A quality, very sturdy monopod with no regrets in purchasing.

This is typically Manfrotto - well made and easy to use. Ideal for shots where the camera needs to be on a support for stability but easily moved, such as wildlife shots or action or sports pictures. Also useful for elevated shots where extra height is needed - with the monopod at maximum extension and at arm's length the camera will be off the ground by the height of the photographer plus about 6 feet. Very good for pics of crowds. Just set the camera delayed shutter release and hoist it aloft. This is best done with a wide angle lens for maximum effect since obviously you can't see through the viewfinder when the shutter trips so it's extremely difficult to target a specific subject. Supports a Nikon D2X with no problem at all. One of those items that gets occasional use but is worth its weight in gold. For flexibility it's best used in conjunction with the 234RC tripod head. Shop around since prices can vary a lot. This item does come up for sale quite frequently so bargains can be had off ebay. Not the cheapest monopod on the market but certainly one of the best - Manfrotto is standard professional gear. Highly recommended.Read full review
