- Handle comfortable and grippy rubberized
- Easy
- Even when fully extended and loaded very stable (camera and lens with me together approximately 1.7 kg)
- Was made by alternative plastic or metal tip (metal spike comes at high screw the plastic foot to light)
- Can also be used for large photographers without limitation (see other reviews of partly 1,90m large users)
- Infinitely adjustable
- Practical carrying case with the same case
- The price!
But you should be aware that it additionally requires a tripod head, if you want to take not only a horizontal shot ;-)
Besides a higher load capacity heavier cameras with long lenses, I see nothing that could offer a much more expensive monopod addition, in order to justify a higher price. From me an unrestricted Purchase Recommendation!
