SiruiSVM-165 Rapid Monopod for Cameras, 65” Carbon Fiber Monopod with Feet, One-Step Rapid Height Adjustment, Lightweight for DSLR Camera, Modular 3 in 1, Max Load 22lbs

This is one of the best tri/ mono pods I've ever owned.It holds my nikon z8 with a 180-600mm lens with ease..will stand on its own with no problems, lightweight and easy to carry over my shoulder with the camera and lens attached.Overall its perfect out in the field.When other photographers see it in action, they all ask to photograph the name and style to get one of their own!!

great monopod, especially the level

This monopod is so stout and well-built that it exceeded what I need in a monopod. I have a relatively light-weight kit (100-500mm lens) and I need a monopod for travel. This monopod is a little heavier and not as compact as I would like for travel purposes. However, it is not marketed as a travel monopod, so I certainly don't fault it for that. I love the rapid height adjustment feature and the option to use tripod legs. This a very versatile monopod that could possibly replace the need for a ground pod too. If you don't need a compact light-weight monopod, this is perfect. Highly recommend!

Arrived with a locking mechanism that does not function. Tripod will not lock, and bottom lock twists indefinitely while making a crunching noise.

This is my new travel buddy, works perfectly I am switch heights seamlessly and it’s super sturdy

Good quality

Great Tripod except the adjustable feet. You push the lock button in to adjust the level of the feet up, but they will move down without pushing the button when you pick it up if you bump it and then you can’t set it back down until you correct this, poor design on the locking feet in my opinion. If your always on level smooth ground no problem but I used it this weekend on uneven, rough ground and a foot would be easily docked down to the next spot making it necessary to adjust before setting it back down again. Feet should lock in place to prevent movement in any direction. 3 stars – for the price it shouldn’t do this.

Product is sturdy, works as indicated is very handy with one hand operation.
