Manfrotto monopod fits the bill

Used the monopod photographing a high school football game worked well, not too heavy easy to adjust. Worth the purchase

Nice product, little heavy but quality.

For the money you can't beat it. Love the Manfrotto levers and thread options.

not great

When it arrived the bottom leg or section was very balky when pulled out. This was different from the Manfrotto legs on my tripod or the upper sections of this monopod which all seem to just drop when you open the release. After making adjustments it was better. Then I went to use it again, the leg was balky requiring a bit more pull & the whole bottom section pulled free from the monopod. I returned it Adorama & they gave me a refund. A plus for Adorama not so much for Manfrotto.

Good product.

Very simple to use. Seems sturdy enough to support my Nikon D500 with a telephoto lens. Quick to setup / takedown. So far, so good!

This monopod has a good weight to it, solid construction

This monopod has a good weight to it, solid construction. Had a D7100 with 70-300 lens attached and no problems shooting or holding the monopod (camera down) by the grip and running around to get a better spot at a 10k race. Once extended, the sections held tight. Only deduction is the flimsy strap that had some plastic attachment piece that prompt got lost first time out.

Small enough in size but large enough to do the job

Good for the price. Extends high enough and collapses down to a nice short size....
