SIRUI Professional Camera Monopod with Feet, 74"/188cm Telescopic Portable Aluminum Travel Monopod with Pan Tilt Fluid Head & Removable Tripod Base for DSLR Camera Camcorder, Max Load 17.6lb/8kg

Excellent product! Very stable, easy to set up, quality materials.

This is the best tripod I have bought very strong and sturdy, I have attached a telescope to it, very easy to adjust it and the bag for it was better quality than my previous one, very happy with it.

Feels fairly sturdy for the price. Ideal for my laser level

This monopod will different give your sports photography that professional edge. unpacking the box, the monopod comes in a nice little padded bag thats about 67cm long ( I measured it with a tape measure).The monopod itself is super compact and can fit in your hand luggage if needed. It's also incredibly easy to extend and feels very secure even at its highest extension. There is also a spirit level built into the monopod to ensure that you're shooting on even ground. With the included lever, micro adjustments are also easily done!Honestly, this is a fantastic piece of kit for anyone who's serious about on location photography/videography. Definitely worth the investment to bring your captures to the next level

Firstly let me say that this is a well made product and feels really solidly constructed from Aluminium. It is also supplied with a good carry bag which is also tough and durable, but for most will be left at home and used for store at her than transportation.This is surely the support for the photographer who doesn’t really know what they want or need. Is it a monopod, is it a tripod, is it a mini table top tripod, or is it a video camera support? I don’t think it knows itself and unfortunately it is not great at any of these things. But it is good at some and it has some clever design features. Whether you need the features is probably down to the individuals use case.Let’s start at the top and work our way down. The video head has a quick release plate, compatible with Arca Swiss. The plate is held tightly in place by a small thumb screw. To release it you have unscrew the thumb screw and slide the locking switch. It has a 1/4” screw fitted and there is also a 3/8” screw stored in the head if your cam area has the bigger thread type. Another small thumb screw releases the panning feature. The panning handle comes separately and screws to the side of the head, it can be adjusted for position with a circular toothed fitting and by rotating the handle in the mount. Opposite this is the lock for the tilt motion. This is basically either on or off, there is no damping adjustment. That is a shame because the damping is very stiff and if you try to pan or tilt with it the monopod will move! Another issue is that when tilted if you let go of the handle, without the lock engaged, the head returns to the horizontal position! I don’t know if all fluid heads do this, but it means you can’t move it to position and leave it there ready for the next shot.Moving onto the monopod, it has four sections which are operated using a lever system. This makes it quick and easy to adjust. The sections move smoothly within each other. When fully extended it is very tall, perhaps unnecessarily so, unless you are a giant or working on a very steep slope. But that is far better than not being tall enough.Moving down to the bottom of the monopod, there is a removable tripod. Think of a table top tripod size. Attached to the monopod it is inadequate at producing a steady support, for the weighty monopod and fluid head. It will hold it up but the slightest wind or nudge could knock it over. Particularly when the monopod is fully extended!Finally we come to the mini tripod. Again this is made from Aluminium and well constructed. It attaches to the monopod with a 3/8” screw. Which means you can attach the fluid head (or any other tripod head) directly to it. The legs fold up along side the monopod and have locking levers to hold them in place. Underneath is a rubber foot for when the legs are folded up to use the monopod function. If you wanted to use the monopods but didn’t want to use the tripod, it leaves a plastic piece with no foot. This would be easily damaged by rough ground and potentially damaging the thread where the tripod fits.So individually there are three good products, four if you count the bag. But I’m not sure they work well together? As a monopod it is heavy, as a tripod it is unstable and as a mini tripod it needs a smaller ball head.
