Review on πŸ“· FOSOTO 65-inch Aluminium Camera Unipod Monopod with Base Tripod: Ideal for Canon Nikon Sony Panasonic DSLR Photography by Keegan Herbert

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very good price compared to similar monopods. Well done.

Considering it costs a lot less than comparable Benro & Manfrotto units but the build quality is pretty good this is it a real bargain. The finish is nice and it comes with a detachable strap and rubber and steel tips to use when the tripod base is detached. The product description only lists the rubber foot, so I was pleasantly surprised to receive both. I decided to buy a small ball head as installing a full size unit doesn't seem to help. Let's see how it holds up to hiking and use. Update: I agree with another reviewer who stated that this is a monopod, not a tripod, so the stability is unparalleled. However, it is very light, even compared to more powerful devices like Sirui. It also feels and acts like a stick, which I find desirable.

Pros
  • Monopod: 18.5" to 65" long (fully extended)
Cons
  • Good but not great
