Goods arrived as expected. Very helpful I find the retractable toe (by screwing) Thus, since the monopod can be used also in rooms. For my relationships stable design, it is supposed to carry only the camera. The variable nature of the extension length 54-170 cm I can the camera sometimes supported against a wall or tree, when I photographed directly downwards, eg insects on the forest floor. All in all again a successful purchase. Addendum (16:08:09) Meanwhile I use the monopod for several months, it is actually getting there. Very useful is the monopod if you want to shoot spontaneously Panoramfotos and tripod + turntable, etc. do not have this or want to carry around. Screw the camera on the monopod and hold the tripod as vertical as possible. Then after each photo the tripod with the camera approximately 30 degrees bwz. Turn to the desired overlap, following photo etc. With a little practice you can shoot in this way passable FotoŽs that can be stitched together seamlessly with the various application programs.
