Product Description
What's even more compact, even lighter, even quicker to set up than a DIGI tripod? A DIGI monopod! When you don't need the total "hands-free" support of a tripod, a monopod is a convenient shoulder to lean on.A Four section, lightweight monopod with rapid action extension locks for compact spotting scopes. 1/4-20" fixing screw.

The Bogen/Manfrotto 676B monopod is a nice addition to my photo equipment. Fit and finish is excellent. It is pretty lightweight and provides excellent additional stability when you don't want to bother carrying a full tripod. I added a quick release, tilting head to complete the set-up so that I can take landscape (horizontal) pictures as well as portrait (vertical). Very satisfied. Very nice tool for the price.
Perfect for light use. Excellent for youth soccer photos November 6, 2006

My wife and I use this monopod to take action photos of our sons' soccer team. We use a Nikon D70 with a Nikon ED 70 - 300 mm 1:4-5.6. This monopod eliminates handheld vibration (even at high shutter speeds) especially when the lens is maxed out at 300mm. Don't let your kids play with it. They can destroy anything. On the foot of the monopod is a plastic cover which our kids managed to pull off. It appears to be friction fitted so it can come off. The monopod screws into the D70. When compressed, the monopod is only about 19 inches long and weights about 12 ounces. Perfect for light use.

I bought this thinking I would regret it due to the low cost. I had checked in my local camera shop and to get a reasonably stable monopod would have had to spend about $70 ( think it was Quantrary?)
However upon receipt I was pleasantly shocked. I like the stability foremost, since what good is a wobbly monopod. The flip type locks seem secure and it doesn't wobble at all.( my largest kit weighs about 5 lbs, I have used it with that and a 2 lb ball head with no problem),the padded hand rest is comfortable, the wrist strap is a nice thicker webbing, not a thin little strap. All in all a quality product for a very low cost...in fact nicer by far than the $70 I looked at. It is lightweight but that wasn't really the prime consideration or imo the major selling point for me, stability was so it would be nice at any weight. It does say it's made in China as previous poster said but not sure why that would matter. Not sure where other Manfrotto items are made but from what i know they are known for quality products and the name is stamped all over this one.

I have a Canon S3 IS & got this to go with the 3229 Swivel Tilt head. Have used it numerous times & it works great - nice & sturdy.
Great tool to stabilize your camera without a tripod November 5, 2006

I purchased this monopod with the Bogen (Manfrotto) 3229 Swivel Tilt Head with Quick Release. This is a great combination. The monopod has 4 sections and it deploys with ease using three quick clamps. I recommend it to folks who want to stabilize their camera without lugging a tripod around.
