Not sturdy enough

Hated it! It will not stay in the locked position at the foot. Returned and purchased the SIRUI P-424FL Monopod. Way better build quality.

Great Monopod!

Needed a pod that could get close to a wall yet sit on a dresser, table etc. This fits the bill! Easy to use, stable with speed light on any surface so far.

Affordable, sturdy monopod

I purchased this monopod primarily for use with a Ricoh Theta 360 degree camera. The monopod works great with this camera -- it is so sturdy it seems like overkill with the the tiny Ricoh camera. The 3 leg locking base creates a stable platform for mounting the camera in a level position at up to 5 foot height. Much more affordable than the monopod that Ricoh sells as an accessory!

Benro Monopod with feet

This is the second Benro monopod I have bought. The first one was stollen. It is sturdy enough and light enough that I can carry it when hiking. I mostly use it with my 55-200 mm lens.

Hard to beat at twice the price.

Basic, well built, sturdy, albeit not very compact monopod suitable for large telephoto lenses. Excellent value.

A great monopod with Benro S4

I bought the S4 video head initially and just got around to getting this monopod. I'm glad that I went with the flip-lock mechanism (opposed to the twist-lock) as it's much easier to use. I carry this with me anywhere as it's light/mobile.

Great, light but sturdy monopod

The monopod is remarkably light for the weight it can carry. The feet may be useful for parking the monopod, but the amount of movement they allow may be better than nothing, but cerrtainly not in a league with a tripod. But as a monopod, it is ideal because of its load bearing capacity but light weight.

Don't want to miss this one.

Quite possibly the best accessory I"e purchased. Lightweight, easy to use, great when you can't lug a tripod along.

Rock steady!

Very well put together. I would recommend using the s6 or s8 video head with this monopod.

Very stable, light

Very stable, light, Helps to take the weight off heavy lenses. Great for the roving photographer. Benro gets it.

Great support

This is just the monopod I have been looking for. Have had a couple others with feet that were awkward to extend and retract, not near as useful as those on the Benro. I have used it with several lens including a 150-600mm. I also like the large tabs to release the leg sections. Have already recommended it to others.
