Rated 5 out of 5

Great for quick stability.

Excellent for quick stability for heavier lenses. I do like that it is rated for over 35 lbs as well.

Solid, good buy

Not fancy, but inexpensive and does the job. I use it mostly in cold environments, so the connections loosen as the metal cools down. Have to tighten each connection several times early on, but then it's usually pretty secure for the rest of the day. I use this with a heavy full frame DSLR and a 300/2.8 lens, and it supports the weight just fine.

Useful for my new iGuide Planix Camera System

Great product and seems fairly secure. I wouldn?t put big equipment on it because the legs are fairly skinny and do bend with some weight. I?m not hard on my tripods so I expect this one to last a while. I am only using it to mount my iGuide Planix camera system on it and it does well. The camera system is only a few pounds, so not a lot of weight. It doesn?t feel like it would tip over with it at operating height.

Great Monopod

Great Monopod, bought for use with a sigma 120-300 f2.8 on a movo gimbal, ease of use is good as well as support of this heavy set up.

Can't wait until warmer weather.

I haven't really got to use it yet because of the weather, but it seems durable. This is going to hold my gimbal head, D7200 and 150m-600mm sigma for birding this spring. That's a moderately heavy setup and I wanted something up to the task.

Perfect for travel.

I needed a smaller more compact tripod for travel and this fits the bill perfectly. Even with my Canon 5d iii and 28-300mm L lens on it! Fantastic.

Really like this Manfrotto Tripod

This is a great tripod for the money, really fits my needs. Compact enough for travel with many very usable options. Not used the Bluetooth or cell phone features yet but plan to do so soon. Highly recommended.

The perfect lightweight mono pod

If you don?t have a monopod and you are a nature photographer you need one. So much easier to carry than a standard tripod. Since getting this the only thing I use my tripod for is timelpase.

Love it

I love it. This is a great versatile tripod. The legs are easily adjustable to adapt to any situation and location. It?s tall when I need it and packs up small when I don?t need it. It?s small and doesn?t weigh much so it?s easy to take anywhere.

Manfrotto Element II Monopod

Manfrotto Element MII Monopod.

The Manfrotto Element MII Monopod Black is a compact, 5-section, aluminum support, perfect to be used with DSLRs, mirrorless, compact cameras and smartphones (using a head or a clamp sold separately).
