Sirui Monopod P-326

I like this monopod. I use it in combination with a manfrotto monopod tripod head to give my camera more stability when shooting macro and it works very well. For me weight and size was the most important and this is about the smallest monopod available. I find the turning mechanism to block the extension works faster than the levers Manfrotto uses. Fully extended, the viewfinder of my camera is just below eye level (I am 1.85m tall). Tip: if you use a tripod head, you can completely remove the wheel at the top to make everything even more compact.

Super light natural (carbon), handy size fits in or on anything. Setting up a 6-piece monopod with swivel clamps takes a bit more time than, for example, 3-piece with click system. Fully extended, the leg is no longer really stiff, slide each segment back a centimeter and everything is very sturdy. Is without a tripod head, the reversible screw at the top allows you to mount all usual devices, I myself use a k20x ball head on it. ideal height for me (1.87m)

easy to use, not too big or heavy
