Review on πŸ“· Altura Photo 62-Inch Camera Monopod - Ultimate Stability for Canon, Nikon, Sony Mirrorless & DSLR - Lightweight, Portable & Easy to Carry by Timothy Wall

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fits in an airplane saddlebag

I was just in Alaska. I have two other monopods, both stronger than this one, but also longer and heavier when folded. My travel camera gear was an Olympus Micro 4/3rds and this monopod has served me very well. I wanted one that would fly with me on the plane so I could keep all my camera gear together. Since it shrinks to just over 16 inches, I gave this one a try. He easily met all of my expectations. I had a small ball head in my pocket and after using the monopod for a few minutes it was very easy to attach the head and then remove it when I was done. Will a full size DSLR fit with a telephoto lens? No, but that's not what it was designed for. For a fairly light camera and lens combo, this works really well.

Pros
  • Comfortable
Cons
  • Some nuances
