Review on Cayer FP34 Camera Monopod - 71 inch Lightweight Aluminum Telescopic Monopod with Pan Tilt Fluid Head and Tripod Base for DSLR Cameras by Eric Brooks

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Need a better carrying case

This monopod is very well made. This works perfectly for all DSLR cameras. It is lightweight but stands on its own very well. The size and weight make it easy to travel with. The bag that comes with it could be a bit bigger. I like to leave the grip on the head of the monopod. I don't want to turn it on and off every time I need to put it away or use it. It's just an unnecessary inconvenience. You can't put a monopod in a carrying case with a handle on your head. It's too wide for a bag. You have to take it off to put it in. I understand that the design of the bag should be such that the monopod fits snugly in the bag so it doesn't move around in the bag, but there must be room for all the mechanisms inside. It's just an unnecessary inconvenience. I've been shooting for over 20 years and this is the first time I've had problems like this with a tripod or monopod bag.

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
