 Canon Monopod up close.. April 8, 2006
161 out of 168 found this review helpful
Never did find more than the one photo of this Monopod on the Internet so thought I would upload some since it arrived here..
Time will tell of course, but it does seem sturdy and the locks are very tight to start with etc. The mini ball head, while not the quality of one costing what the whole monopod costs.. seems to be capable and holds my heavy DSLR with grip firmly.
Again, we'll see what some wear does to it and edit this then.
Update after some use..
Well, working very well and clamps are still nice and tight, socket and ball are also doing just fine.
I find that I'm not going to leave the monopod screwed in my battery grip while I walk to next shot etc. It seems to put extra pressure on the grip to camera mount that you don't want.
But this is nothing that this Canon product does that another will not however. No problem if the camera is setting on the monopod, but best not to hold horizontal etc.
Update 8/06
Price seems to push high now and then.. my review is based on a price of $30 ,other brands come into consideration at $50 and up.
Canon unit is still working just fine and giving no signs of wear or trouble, I'm still happy with it for the price I paid.
Update; July 8,2007
I'd have to move my rating up to 4 stars now as this monopod is still doing well and I have no complaints.

I was very pleased with Amazons quick delivery of my new Canon monopod.
The monopod is very easy to adjust and use. It's the ideal ridgid support you would want for your camera.
It even doubles as a great walking stick, sometime need, on those long treks you make to get a good photo.
Great Value March 1, 2006

This monopod is exactly what I expected at a good price. It extends very smoothly, and the stops hold the leg firmly at the height I set. Easy to set up and adjust with one hand so I can change height with the camera attached.

I love this monopod! I'm a person who uses my camera nearly every day (Canon EOS Elan 7 35mm). This item is one of my favorite accessories for the camera -- so much easier to travel with than a tripod! It's sturdy, but lightweight, easy to use and is very portable. I am mostly using the monopod to support my camera with an enormous, extremely heavy 500mm telephoto lens attached. I'm actually able to hold that huge lens steady with just the monopod -- not one blurry photo! I've dragged it all over the Bluegrass of Kentucky ... across fields of horse farms, and even to the racetrack. I've taken it out into the wilderness to photograph elk. I had to keep closing it down and extending it out every time we got in and out of the vehicle, which was often. Also recently traveled all over Arizona with it to the Grand Canyon, Monument Valley, Canyon De Chelley, etc. I was constantly opening and closing it, taking literally hundreds of photos (about 14 rolls) with no problems at all. I'm wondering if the other reviewer just got a defective one. I wish I'd bought one of these years ago! I highly recommend it.

Appeared to be a rather sturdy monopod but after about 3 weeks of shooting various sporting events, on section of the retractable leg is sticking quite badly now. I'd say spend the extra money for a better product.
