Product Details
The MP-285C Carbon Fiber Monopod from Leofoto is a five-section camera support with a maximum height of 60.2". The 0.9 lb monopod is constructed with a 10-layer carbon fiber weave and designed to hold up to 33.1 lb. Featuring a comfortable foam grip and wrist strap for a secure grip, this monopod is capable of supporting cameras with large telephoto lenses. The rubber foot prevents it from sliding on smooth surfaces, but is also removable and can be replaced with a separately available steel claw, spike, or other accessory to facilitate the best traction for any given terrain. When not in use, turn the ergonomic twist locks to collapse the support down to 17". The threaded mounting stud on the top of the monopod features a reversible 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 screw, making it universal for most cameras and lenses.
