Review on πŸ“· SIRUI P-326 Carbon Fiber Monopod - 6 Sections by Patrick Burton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I fell in love! I left K20 for my dolly.

There is very little to say about monopods, so I'll be brief. I really didn't need another monopod and have never spent $100 on one. But as a longtime professional photographer, I have tried many products. I recently tried the SIRUI K 20 ball head and fell in love! I kept the K 20 for my Dollica monopod and ordered the K 30 ball head for the tripod. They (ball heads K 30 and K 20) are nothing but "Precision Sweet"! I was so impressed with this line of products that I decided to order the P-326. I have some back problems so I always carry a monopod with me, more like a stick. I also go to MT. Ride your bike every day and use the elastic cords to attach your gear to your bike frame. Since this monopod is 15 inches retracted, I liked it. When it arrived I was really impressed with all aspects. I read in another review that it was "QUIET". "rattle" when you walk with it. A good thing! It is very light and very durable. I've put a lot of my own body weight on it (without abusing it) and it has never slipped or collapsed like some others I've had. It quickly extends to the desired height and locks into place with very little twisting of the twist locks. typical walking stick) on the bottom of my monopods (available at any hardware store) to keep the factory installed shoe since I use it all the time and remove it when I need to extend the stainless steel tip for icy or slippery conditions. A little advice! Like SIRUI's ball heads, this is undoubtedly a professional tool. The equipment and I believe it is some of the highest quality photographic equipment I have ever used. I highly recommend this line of products. Thank you Gunner Boone.
