Product Description
Are you tired of taking blurry pictures but find carrying a tripod around too heavy or bulky? Then get a Modo Monopod. It has the convenience of a tripod but is a light 0.6 pounds. Just attach your camera and you're ready to take clear, focused pictures.

 If you need it, buy it, now. September 30, 2008
What a great camera mount. It is finely crafted, works like a dream, and is precisely what I needed to capture my kids' sports action photos. It easily could be used as a walking stick over rough terrain, too. Definitely, this is a thumbs up.
 good brand name but somewhat disappointing... September 30, 2008
I purchased this monopod because of its size. With only 15 inches folded, it is more convenient to be carried on the bottom loops of my camera bag. My other monopods stick too far out over the bag and cause problems arround people and in tight environment. Choosing a good brand like Manfrotto gave me a good feeling ordering this item....
Okay, the tripod itself looks good - maybe a bit weaker than my other generic but works well. It also comes with a screw cover which is a great thing.
Nevertheless, like in other reviews, I also had problems with the strap which is of a thinn nylon type material and slips out of the buckle - I tried to be smart and made the strap wett with regular tub water - the manfrotto script came off - don't go with it in the rain...
This monopod does not come with any type of bag, cover or case like most other monopods do. To get an adequate size for it will probably be difficult...
Considering the rediculous strap, the script coming off by just getting wett, and not having some type of cover or bag, made my give only three stars.
Shame Manfrotto - such mikey-mouse-deficiencies are under your reputation... (not a big problem though, because your name washes off in the next rain - at least from the strap)
 Keep the camera steady September 7, 2008
I bought the monopod for shooting a wedding. It worked great. When shooting inside it matters if the camera moves this helps. I recommend this product it worked.
A Real Surprize September 5, 2008
Quality from the first touch of the box, yes the box. When I first saw the packaging I thought I would rather see them reduce the cost of the box and give me a break on the price of the monopod. But once I started using same I quickly decided this was worth every cent I spent on it. True feel and precise actions are what you get with this monopod. Surdy and pretty all in one. I put mounted everyday camera on it and carried it everywhere. it was short enough to slide under my legs in the front of my truck and it was sturdy enough to jack the jaw of anyone who wanted to try something funny. A buddy of mine bought one locally to use on his vacation and paid about ten dollars more just to get it on time.
Why didn't I loan him mine well the only problem I had with it was, it was too easy for some jerk to walk off with. I will be buying another one soon.
A great compact monopod July 16, 2008
Well built, light, affordable and compact. Although meant for compact cameras, you can add a 1/4" to 3/8" adapter (around US$3) to be able to use this monopod with your DSLR. I added a Manfrotto mini ball head for even more flexibility, I won't recommend using it with large lenses. Remember it is meant give additional support and not total support. It serves my purpose as a travel monopod. It fits inside my carry on luggage or backpack. I have another more sturdy Manfrotto monopod for non-travel use.
