I needed a video monopod for a lightweight camera. I knew the Cayer was a good option in terms of price and quality, but I hadn't personally tried these two-in-one kits.

I'm very happy, for a little more price (from 110€ for the normal monopod to 140€ for the tripod/monopod) I have both. A monopod that works well with a mirrorless DSLR or in my case a medium sized fs5 type video camera. In addition, as a tripod, it is very suitable as a second tripod for a fixed plane that does not move much. Still, the bread and the tilts are good for them.

If you need a professional tripod to use as your main tripod, you may need to go for a more expensive tripod. However, if you want a well-designed monopod that you can double use as a secondary tripod, this is a hit.

In fact, I couldn't see it until the monopod arrived (without using the center pole), it stays around 1.7m. For me it's a perfect height, but with another extension you can go even higher.

I brought this for my daughter for blogging… she adjusted it and she loves it… great quality and great price…

This is so mini and clear! I love it and feel safe when there are crazy drivers around! Good to buy!

One of the best mini lights i have come across

This is exactly what I needed for my video blogging. This is a very versatile lightweight tripod that looks excellent. It is very sturdy and easy to manage. It has many settings which makes it useful for many applications. I highly recommend it.

I am getting older so this kf concept Basic monopod allows me to cover some of my B-roll DSLR video needs without lugging a full tripod all the time. You have to do your part vis-a-vis remaining still, but this was well worth the price.

I find myself shooting more and more video with my cameras. While with the advent of modern optical image stabilization, handheld video can be of very high quality, holding a camera (and particularly a not-particularly-lightweight DSLR) still for any amount of time becomes tiring, and the video will suffer as a result.Hauling around a full-size tripod is tiring and a hassle. This monopod is the perfect answer. Your camera quickly attaches to the top, you extend the telescopic leg to the required height, and you have perfectly stable video without the fatigue of holding your camera in place.The leg itself is made of hollow aluminum with three friction locks to lock the individual telescoping pieces in place. Once locked, it is very sturdy, with no movement of any kind. You can adjust the overall length to any height you wish - it locks into position once you extend it to the height you desire.The thick foam grip allows you to easily control steady, smooth panning motion, and you can do a bit of tilt as well by pushing the monopod forward or back. I did purchase a small ball joint adapter to screw to the top, which allows the camera to move independently of the monopod when more flexibility is required.The foot of the monopod is rubber, and the rubber foot can be screwed in, exposing a metal point, good for use on slippery surfaces such as ice.While useful for shooting steady video, it is also excellent for shooting in low light with slow shutter speeds where any movement turns the picture blurry, or for long telephoto shots where slight camera movement can introduce blur into the picture.Some people have reported problems with the threaded screw at the top coming loose and not being able to remove the camera, I have not experienced this issue.The monopod comes with a fitted carrying bag with an attached shoulder strap. Once collapsed, measuring around 18 inches long, you can put it in the bag, sling it over your shoulder and pretty much forget it's there.I haven't tried it, but looking at the solid foot (and metal spike) as well as the thick foam grip, I've thought more than once that it could also function as a walking stick. So if you're looking for an inexpensive, light, portable walking stick, perhaps this might be an option.Overall a good purchase, I'm glad I bought it - and my videos are much better for it!
