I inadvertently ordered the red colour but actually I think it looks better. Nice and light ,used it both as a walking stick and a hiking pole, easy to use with the new screw extensions poles lock into place . Increased stability. Compact and not forgetting the adaptor for cameras excellent mono pod. Lastly it is suitable for indoors and outdoors, inter changeable tips . Fully functional. Excellent.

Great value, well made, monopod
An excellent monopod, well designed, solid, durable, and functional. This is definitely one to consider if you need a monopod that won't let you down.

Good monopod but not perfect, needs improvement.
I needed a monopod for my camera to record videos. When zoomed in a long way whilst recording videos, the smallest shake of my hand can be seen massively on the video. I decided to buy this Manbily as it seemed better quality than others, plus it can be used as a walking stick. It is a very good monopod but not quite perfect, and could be improved. PROS:- 1. Good strong study frame when extended, no cheap plastics, feels like it can take alot of punishment before breaking. 2. Strong rubber handle with secure grip. 3. Wriststrap to ensure you won't let go of the monopod. Wriststrap can move around carrying platform to wherever you need it, and wriststrap can be removed completely if required. 4. Mounting thread can switch between 1/4 and 3/8 inch screw depending on your equipment. 5. Can easily change between a rubber foot or a metal spike depending on the ground. 6. Easily extend or retract length of monopod by turning quick locking knobs. 7. Small size of 40cm when folded and very light, can extend to a massive 155cm. CONS:- 1. Rubber protective cap on top mounting thread only fits onto the 3/8 inch screw, so if you are using the 1/4 inch screw, then you cannot use the rubber protective cap. They should have included two different sized protective caps for the two mounting thread sizes. 2. Quick Locking Knobs only have to be loosened a little to extend the monopod. If you loosen them too much by accident, the monopod starts to fall apart, as it is also the quick locking knobs that keep everything fixed together. 3. Biggest problem is the carrying platform that the camera rests on, is made from hard plastic. As you tighten the monopod onto your camera, the hard plastic carrying platform scratches the camera. They should have fixed rubber or foam onto the carrying platform to protect your camera. I had some adhesive black foam tape and stuck that to the carrying platform to stop my camera getting scratched.

Comfortable & Strong.
Useful piece of kit. Easily adjustable to any height. Easy to swap out the spike/rubber pad on the bottom and replace with the mini tripod. The neoprene holder is a nice touch to carry the monopod and mini tripod, lightweight too and handy to carry.

Strong and supportive.
Generally very robust and very adjustable. Loses one star as adjustment locks do have a tendency to loosen themselves and one rubber grip on adjustment ring already split after only a few months.

This is modular in a good way, my wife was able to modify it by attaching some EDC gadgets and she made some paracord handles for it and now she has used it as a combined walking-stick and photo aid on hikes. Personally I thought it seemed a little bit heavy?? But I'm not the expert, and she says it's perfectly fine for what it is, so, five stars.

Las imágenes del anuncio son bastante ajustadas a la realidad, así que no hace mucha falta adjuntar muchas fotos. El bastón-monopié está bastante conseguido, pero hay "cositas" que lo alejan de la perfección. Como bastón se puede utilizar, pero hay que tener la precaución de apretar MUCHO las zonas que decidas extender. Si no las aprietas con todas tus ganas, al echar el peso completo de una persona, ceden, y el bastón se pliega. La duda es cuánto tiempo aguantarán esos cierres apretando tanto... se verá. Como monopié el muy versátil y bastante ligero. La punta inferior se puede desenroscar, dejando lugar a un espacio para un tornillo de 3/8. Si tienes una base de trípodes con esa rosca, puede ponerla ahí y convertir en monopié en un trípode básico. Los materiales se ven de calidad, aunque los plásticos siempre generan algo de desconfianza ¿serán de los que se vuelven pegajosos pasados unos años? El tiempo lo dirá. En la zona superior hay un tornillo allen (trae su llave y todo), que no tiene utilidad aparente. Si lo quitas, te deja un hueco de tornillo de 1/4, que te sirve para montar una segunda cámara, un flash, o cualquier cosa similar. PROBLEMAS: Para mí, el mayor problema es el tornillo superior, el que se supone que debería estar mejor trabajado. Resulta que no tiene ningún tipo de tope, es decir, lo puedes enroscar en el monopié sin límites, y si te descuidas lo metes del todo y te desaparece dentro. Tampoco hay límite de rosca en el mango para bastón, así que te puede ocurrir exactamente lo mismo. Esto dificulta, mucho, enroscar el bastón correctamente. No sabes si has metido mucha rosca en el mango, o poca, o demasiada en la base, o poca... es imposible. Para colocar rótulas, cámaras y demás, recomiendo poner primero el tornillo en el accesorio que se quiera montar, apretar, y después poner en el monopie. Si lo haces al contrario, corres el serio riesgo de estar enroscando el tornillo más profundo en el palo, y que la cámara apenas pille rosca, con la posibilidad de caída/susto. Es bastante difícil de entender cómo se les ha pasado por alto un detalle tan básico en el diseño: bastaba con poner un tope en la rosca! Tiene otros detalles mejorables, como que las roscas de extensión tampoco tienen tope, y si las sacas del todo se te desmonta el palo. No es grave, volver a montarlo es sencillo, y aprendes rápido que no hace falta desenroscar mucho para aflojar y extender... pero, leches, también se arreglaba con algo tan simple como otro tope en las roscas. De la durabilidad hablaré en unos meses, después de ponerlo a prueba.

Première Impression 👍 - J'ai récemment acheté le Manbily Monopode en aluminium pour mon "Insta360 GO 3, et voici mon avis détaillé. Points Positifs ✨ - Solidité et Stabilité 🏋️♂️ Dès le premier coup d'œil, ce monopode impressionne par sa robustesse. Même complètement déployé à sa hauteur maximale de 155 cm, il reste stable. Le tube d'extension le plus fin, de 13 mm de diamètre, ne fléchit presque pas. 💪 - Qualité de Fabrication 🔧 La conception, l'ingénierie et la finition sont excellentes. Le design est soigné et le monopode est bien construit. 👌 - Polyvalence 🎥 Avec quelques accessoires, ce monopode devient un outil multifonction (voir les photos) - Aide à la Mobilité 🚶♂️ En tant que personne ayant des problèmes à mon genou droit, j'ai utilisé ce monopode comme une canne. Il supporte bien mon poids (74 kg) grâce aux verrous de torsion sécurisés. 💪 La poigne est confortable et et offrent une bonne prise. Points Négatifs ⚠️ - Poids ⚖️ Ce monopode n'est pas particulièrement léger. Pour une utilisation prolongée, il peut devenir fatigant à porter, même si son poids contribue à sa stabilité. 🏞️ Conclusion 🎯 Malgré quelques petits inconvénients, le Manbily Monopode est un excellent investissement, surtout comparé à des modèles plus chers sur le marché. Sa polyvalence, sa robustesse et sa qualité de fabrication en font un outil incontournable pour les photographes et les vidéastes. Je le recommande sans hésiter ! J'ai également trouvé de nouvelles utilisations pour ce monopode, comme une perche pour selfies et une aide à la marche pour mes randonnées. 🌄 Merci de m'avoir lu et j'espère que cet avis vous sera utile dans votre décision d'achat ! 😊📸

Love this monopod. I have a great Tripod but needed something I could pack. So I came across this and decided to give it a try. First off, it is compact so it will fit in my suitcase for an upcoming trip. It’s solid and sturdy and fully adjustable in height. Unlock and lock of each section is by a locking twist collar. I have a 600mm lens that I wanted this for and tested it this weekend and it worked perfectly. Now the added bonus. This can be used as a walking cane or hiking pole. You simply switch the handle around and it will do both. Handle goes in my pocket when I need to use it for my camera. It’s very comfortable to use. The monopod comes with a sturdy rubber tip for use on hard surfaces and it comes off to reveal a nice spike tip for hiking or soft surfaces or cracks. All around a great unit. Designed well, looks nice, quality build and multi use. A great bargain.
