Review on Xit XT72MP Pro Series 72-Inch Monopod (Black): Superior Support for Ultimate Photography and Videography Experience by Johnny Nguyen

PENCIL LIKE LEGS works best with monopods

I'm not here to convince anyone to buy this product. I'm just here to let potential buyers know that this tripod is about as cheap as it gets. I bought this tripod knowing it was very cheap and probably low quality and I was right. However, I was looking for a tripod for a light camera trap that could stay outside. This tripod serves its purpose. The head on this tripod is very cheap and the legs are pathetic. The last part of the leg is as thin as a pencil and I'm not kidding. I literally put the pencil and the last part of the leg next to each other and they are relatively the same diameter. For another $10-$15 you can get something much better. Let's just say would you rather spend a few bucks more for a better tripod or replace that expensive camera? Under no circumstances would I ever mount my DSLR or binoculars on this thing. UPDATE: I couldn't even use this tripod. It's so cheap you won't even get dizzy. I returned it to Revain and bought the tripod listed below. It was only $10 more expensive and is a much better product. Even the bag that comes with the kit is much better. Spend $10 or $20 the choice is yours but believe me I put these two tripods side by side and you won't believe the difference. I hope this helps you decide.
