Avella A325 Aluminum 58 Inch Camera Monopod Professional Telescopic Monopods Compatibility DSLR Cameras

I’m not normally one to complain much about something like a clip being “too hard” to use, but... it is.On the one hand, it seems very secure and like there’s virtually no chance of it even being bumped hard into unlocking itself.On the other hand, I don’t have all the time and patience in the world to set up photos and wait for the perfect conditions to align, etc. I have a young child, with whom I’d like to take pictures. My child does not have the patience or attention span to wait for me to fiddle with individual locks even once, much less if I have to go back and readjust them because the picture was not framed properly, and now said child has moved on to another location.

I really like the design and feel of this monopod. The clamps are very sturdy; however, when I received mine, it was defective. It turned out that something inside was broken and it rattled inside the monopod. Not every item can be perfect, but Advella and Amazon do their best to take good care of their customers. Bottom line: I recommend this monpod.

I have been taking this with me to all the outside concerts this summer for steady videos and it work great!! I added a Peak Design clip, so I can easily and quickly attach the camera!! Works great!!

This monopod is high quality and I have used it a few times already, with a ball head. My only concern is that that I was unable to unscrew the monopod top-plate. Either it's so tight that I can't manage it (I don't want to damage it trying with a spanner or large vise-grip), or the design has changed. Fortunately the ball head itself came with adapters.

I use this monopod for photographing wildlife and college football. It’s tough and light.

Immediately upon opening this mono-pod I was pleased to find it came with a useful carrying case.Nothing about this product feels cheap and it's telescoping clip locks are superior to other twist locks. I placed my Sony A7iii and Weebill Lab Gimbal on top of this to gain perspective for filming performers on stage.The main advantage to having clips is when you twist the mono-pod to pan left and right you don't have to worry about the clips coming loose as twist locks would. I filmed for 3 hours without one issue. I would highly suggest this product if you are in the market for great value mono-pod.

It's fine. No better no worse. Ended up getting the peak design tripod on kickstarter as a replacement since this didn't live up to the impossible expectations I had in my mind. As a monopod it is fine - it will not work for a long exposure on a tripod foot though.

I have owned 3 different monopods. This is by far the best. One was too heavy and one was too light. This one hits the sweet spot for me. I am confident this one is my last purchase.
