noston Professional 65-inch Camera Aluminium Monopod with Folding Three Feet Support Stand Tripod Balance Stand Base - Shoulder/Carrying Bag Included

This is EXACTLY what I was looking for. It is very well made. The feet lock into place and feel durable. Doesn't feel cheap. I was looking for something to mount a Samsung Gear 360 (VR) camera to, and this is the perfect tool to use for that. Note: the red dohicky at the bottom lets you adjust the pole's degree of angle from the ground in case there is uneven surface. Good job making this

Used this Tripod on our recent trip to photograph all five of Utah's National Parks using our 360 camera.The camera fit perfectly on the screwtop. It does not have a quick release plate, so you need to screw and unscrew the camera each time. Once it was screwed on, it was very secure.The monopod leg is expandable using a turning motion. Very similar to extended paint poles. This type of system requires you to unscrew to loosen the hold, expand the pole, and then screw to tighten. This is required for all four sections of the monopod. I actually prefer the snap clips better, they are mush quicker and easier to use.We really liked the tripod kegs. They were sturdy and seemed to secure easily. We were filing in some very windy conditions which required us to find heavy rocks to hold the monopod from tipping over. Our little camera did not weigh much and the wind still caused some issues. At first, we really liked the legs being shorter because we didn't want them to show up in our 360 photograph. But, if you need a more secure stand, you might want to look for longer legs.One problem we had with the unit was the bolt that holds the camera rest on top. It is made of plastic and it broke on the third day of use. We were able to go to the local hardware store and get s 3/4 nut and it worked perfectly. We were very relieved that it took a common size and we're happy we could fix it on our trip.Nice monopod, worked for our little camera, just needs some type of weights at the bottom to be secure.

I purchased this Monopod to use it with my Samsung Gear 360 Camera and it does what I needed. You only see the feet in the photos which you can easily remove using photoshop. One word of caution just like with any other monopod with feet, it will not be too stable so make sure that you use some kind of stabilizer like a sandbag.

The concept was good but photographer beware, the base of the monopod is not sturdy. The slightest wind can blow the base and fall off damaging your camera. It happened to me 3x during my trip. The first 2 I was able to catch it from falling but the third, my camera was not lucky and the broke the lens when it fell and hit the asphalt.

Folds nice and small. Comparable to my Manfrotto Monopod for a lot less. the fold out feet doesn't tighten as much as I would like causing them to loosen when I turn the other rings to adjust the height. That is mostly so you can remove it and have a true monopod. Since I don't plan on ever taking it off, I just super glued it on. noston Professional 65-inch Camera Aluminium Monopod with Folding Three Feet Support Stand Tripod Balance Stand Base - Shoulder/Carrying Bag Included

I second another reviewer this works perfectly with the Samsung Gear 360 Camera. The only thing left showing are the feet of the tripod everything gets blurred out.

I get so many questions when using this unit. It makes field work so much easier when a tripod is just to much to haul around. We mounted a fluid head on it and use a 18lb camera rig on it. This is a must have for all film makers and photographers.

It would help if you secured the scew into the frame and didnt leave it so it gets stuck in the camera.. not very happy about this.
