 Manfrotta Monopod #679B July 21, 2010

I purchased this monopod in hopes it could replace my tripod in most situations. I hated carrying a big, bulky tripod that was such a pain to deploy and use. The monopod fits the bill perfectly, allowing me to take low-light pictures. The monopod is small enough to take with you almost anywhere. It is very fast to deploy and easy to walk with. On the downside it's not as steady as a tripod, but that's to be expected ;)
One thing that was not immediately obvious to me is that this monopod does not ship with a head. You will need to purchase something like the 234RC head to use this monopod with your camera. However there are many options and you can purchase exactly what you want (or rig your own if you're creative).
The last point I want to make is this is a very high quality monopod. It is a tiny bit heavy but this makes it more stable. (Maybe heavy isn't the right word, but you feel the inertia of the monopod when you move the camera - and this helps dampen movement.)
Delivers as expected October 3, 2009

After reading several reviews before purchase, the product performs as expected. Compact size for transport. Light weight. Have used primarily for shooting sporting events and have seen a marked improvement in shooting action shots over a hand held camera. Does the job for a very reasonable price.
Great Monopod! September 17, 2009

A great piece of equipment. Well constructed. I use it for everywhere I can't get a tripod into. I even strap it to my bicycle frame when out for a ride.

Great monopod. Sturdy and well made. I put my D90 with 70-200 2.8 vr on it with no trouble. My one slightly negative comment is that the hand strap does not stay secured. Not a huge deal since I don't like using them anyway.
