Works well. Easy adjustments. Great for my daughters field hockey games. I have involuntary tremors in my hands and after hours of sports photos this helps me steady hands and my photographs.

My Nikon camera w Sigma lens weighs in at 4.6 lbs. First use of this monopod was a nightmare as the leg extensions keep sliding downward. Tried extending different portions hoping that maybe just the one was bad & would hold its place when clasp engaged. It was not the case. The manufacturer info states it holds up to 6.6 lbs - not so. I gave it an extra star because at that price, I should have known better. Also, the cover that comes w the monopod is a cheaply made plastic (I could have lived w that had it held my camera in place.)

If you are an average to active photographer or world traveler, you will love this monopod. It is lightweight, it is easy to pack and yet is sturdy and designed to last. With sure-lock sections it is easy to lock it at any height and the locks are tight--no sliding when you lean on it. I am well over 6 feet tall and it is wonderful to have my camera up so high. The tube construction is solid and does not wobble, and for added stability they have created a v-shaped channel to guide the folding but that channel also adds to the design for strength. I carry my camera around the world and most professional monopods are either expensive or heavy. This model gives the best of all situations. It weighs about 1 pound and easily fits onto my carry-on backpack--and handles accessories very easily. The bottom also has a fast turn to give you either a spike or a rubber foot. Yes, you could spend $180 on a nice carbon-fibre monopod but I haven't found one that offers me more than this mid-range model. For the average video camera or DSLR or digital camera, it handles well and is balanced and travels exceptionally well (and even includes a good case).Read full review

The first time I put a camera on it, I ended up holding the camera in my hand and the monopod fell over. when I looked at the bottom of the camera, the stud tripod mount screw was in the camera and only finger tight. I bought a $.69 double ended stud and tapped the hole in the monopod (which was smooth). It was about a 20 minute job and it is now better than new. I have used it dozens of times now and it works fine.
