Alan 3 legged thing is A STAR monopod for me!

I used it photography and some video shoot; it's convenient and easy to carry, especially for your shooting run and gun guerilla-style.

It’s a Beast

I wanted a very strong monopod that could hold my longest lenses and that could double as a walking stick/staff. I’m 69 years old and some help getting from my knees or going over rough ground was a requirement. This is almost unbelievably strong and stiff, It is very well built, with high quality components. The locking mechanism is comfortable, provides good grip and is solid. The only thing one might consider a negative is it is a bit heavier than some other carbon fiber units, I don’t think it’s an issue it is still light enough and the strength of the product more than compensates. I am totally pleased with this product at this price.

3 Legged thing minus 2.

3 Legged Mono pod is very well made, large rubber grip and biglocking sections on the legs. Put a gimbal head on top with 400mm 2.8 lens and it works fine glad I bought it.
