Benro MiniMax MMX37C カーボンファイバー一脚（250周年記念特別版）

The telescoping sections lock down so securely that I got rock-steady shots of a heron from across the lake without any wobble. For how tall it extends, the whole thing still balances easily on my shoulder during a long hike.

I've been using this carbon fiber monopod for several weeks now and it's incredibly stable even with my heaviest telephoto lens attached. The lightweight build makes it easy to carry on long hikes without adding fatigue to my gear bag.

This thing weighs almost nothing but locks up rock solid when you need it. I’ve been carrying it through a full day of hiking and barely noticed it on my bag, which is exactly what I wanted from the carbon fiber build.
