I bought this kit from Artwork Foto for $50 and got a few happy surprises
Actually all I wanted was the monopod because it is double-tipped. (1/4'-20 male on one tip and 1/4-20"female on the other)
But in the box was also a table tripod and a funky plastic ballhead with detachable phone grip. Plus the bonus find - a balled rubber feet-cup for fluid panning and faux dolly.
similar to this
The 6 segment aluminium monopod is 27cm folded and 120cm extended. The diameter of the monopod is less than 3cm.
Side by side with the double-tipped Velbon 8dx, it is exactly the same length folded and much slimmer and lighter. (because it's 1 foot shorter than the 8dx)
Great as:
- emergency height extender for small tripods
- Handheld jib for sports cam on small gimbals
- mic boom for small shotguns
- LED lightstand for seated interview
