Possibly the best monopod I've tried.
We do a mix of still and video photography and I was looking for something that could serve both purposes. The Monfrotto 560B does this well. It's probably overkill for still photography and it's a lot larger than most collapsable monopods sold for the purpose, but I'll tell you, I have a heavy 400mm Sigma tele and it sits rock solid. The ability to fluid drag panning motion and the tilt feature are almost as good as a gimble mount for that lens. One feature that is often overlooked is that it comes with Monfrotto's RC2 mount system for quick release of the camera and/or lens. I have RC2s on all my gear so switching from one set up to another is fast and easy. I've used it successfully on both our Nikon DSLRs and Canon full size camcorders. The fold out feet provide great stability, the fluid drag at the bottom at first seems odd, but once you use it, it makes sense. The telescoping mechanism works smoothly and it's easy to make height adjustments. It's lighter than you would think looking at it yet extremely stable. The tilt head is well designed and adds a lot of utility, and the QR system is great. Five Stars, I'd give it six if I could. Couple of easy modifications to add utility are I added a snap clip below the head to clip it onto my camera backpack (it won't fit in standard monopod attachments due to size) and I wrap about 3 feet of duct tape below the grip which comes in handy when I want to secure the pod to something--like a fence rail. One more thing, I've seen questions about whether it will stand on its own. Yes, without a camera on it, it will stand on it's feet. However, with a camera mounted it will fall over as soon as you let go of it with catastrophic results for the mounted device (that's why I keep the tape handy).Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Really stable and strong
I really have enjoyed using this tripod in just the couple of weeks that I have had it. It is extremely well built with a strong grip on the roller ball head, solid locking legs, and a tight grip on the camera attachment pad. It's not compact, but it's not overly sized either (in my opinion). It is not carbon fiber, but I like the solid feel that the extra weight gives it, plus we're not exactly talking about 5 extra pounds...it's a matter of ounces. The collapsible feet are a really great feature. With my smaller lenses on the camera, I have not had any problem walking away from the unit with the camera still attached...no worries about it falling over. I have not yet tried it with one of the heavier lenses, though, so be careful. Overall, I am really happy with this purchase, and look forward to a lot of years of use.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Bring your own head...
Which is what I did... I was able to set the monopod up with my Sony A6000 on top and use it to take a group photo that I was also in. I also have a remote for the Sony which I used. Otherwise, I could have used the 10-second timer and run...but, I didn't have to.Verified purchase: Yes

Odd movement for “Fluid”
I like everything about this monopod except the fluid ball on the foot. It has a scrubby movement that is anything but fluid. And it makes a funny little scrubby noise, like rubber on metal. I shoot mostly stills, but it would be unusable if I was doing video. I suspect this unit is somehow defective as Manfrotto gear is pretty good in my experience.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
