Amazon.com Product Description
The sturdy Velbon UP-43 deluxe professional unipod is built to handle the weight of large and telephoto lenses. The unit has a die-cast aluminum ball socket head (allowing vertical picture composition), a 4-section compact tubular leg with wrist strap, a foam-covered handgrip, quick side-lever leg locks, and a rubber-tipped foot. It opens to 63 inches and closes to a compact 20 inches. It is excellent for fast, professional photo and video work.

4 out of 5 stars Light, but sturdy and a good height   March 4, 2006
Gary Heayes (Kawaguchi-shi, Saitama-ken Japan)

I have the black version of this monopod, the RUP-43. I bought it after carefully examining many other monopods from Slik, Manfroto, Etsumi and Velbon in a store.

I usually prefer collar-type leg locks over the clip type used in the UP-43, but nothing could beat this model in terms of height to weight ratio and value for money, so I made an exception. The ball head looks a little on the small side, but it copes perfectly well with my medium format TLR and SLR cameras as well as my 35mm SLR.

The UP-43 extends up to 1637mm long, collapses down to 530mm, weighs 437g, and can support cameras up to 2kg. My only gripe is that the ball head is not removable.
