Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon Monopod 100 for SLR Cameras & Lenses
Customer Review: An excellent addition to one's photographic toolkit.
Summary: 5 Stars
Good:
- Sturdy platform, even with a long, heavy lens (I have used this monopod with an old, heavy aluminum 400mm Tokina) and when fully extended.
- Easy, fast deployment and fold-up. The flip locks could not be easier or quicker to use. I estimate a maximum of 5 seconds to completely elongate or collapse this monopod, after a little practice.
- Excellent height range. I am 188cm (6' 2") tall, and find that my camera is a little high, when the monopod is fully extended.
- The ball joint has proven sturdy and easy to adjust, even flipping between 'portrait' and 'landscape' orientations.
- Monopod weight is very light.
Bad?:
- The head where the camera rests is covered in what appears to be cork. So far it has held up just fine, but I worry that it may eventually abrade away.
I have had this monopod for several months and am delighted with it. Even ignoring the low price, this has been my best recent purchase of photographic equipment.
Why a monopod? It provides much of the stability of a tripod without the cumbersome set-up time and almost none of the required footprint. I have used this monpod while seated in a crowded middle school theater without disturbing other audience members, to great effect. While no monopod can give 100% of the stability of a tripod, the reduction in movement can do wonders for one's photography, especially in low-light situations.
One note on use: It is often recommended that one switch off image stabilization features when using a tripod. My experience with leaving image stabilization on with the monopod has been very favorable.
