SIRUI SVM-165 Rapid Monopod for Cameras, 65” Carbon Fiber Monopod with Feet, One-Step Rapid Height Adjustment, Lightweight for DSLR Camera, Modular 3 in 1, Max Load 22lbs

Excellent design and build quality. Love the quick deployment and height adjustment. A bit heavy but I think most monopods with feet are on the heavier side.

I had limited experience with monopods before buying this one, so I based my decision on reviews and I'm glad I did. This monopod is built like an old battleship -- study and functional. It has a quality feel, from the carbon fiber leg to the locking mechanism when the leg is extended, to the fold-out feet. I can't see anything that I would improve and don't understand why anyone would pay a penny more for some other brand. I'm hard to please and if I say it's worth 5 stars, you can take it to the bank, lol.

Works perfectly. Built like a brick!

The monopod sounds great however has a few dealbreaker flaws 1) Monopod is a bit too unstable compared to my similar priced ifootage monopod 2) The locking mechanism seems great on paper however it is very easy to have the height go all the way down instead of making small height adjustments 3) Legs are a bit too short so monopod tends to wobbly much more than I am comfortable with

Very practical and easy to use.

Arrived with a locking mechanism that does not function. Tripod will not lock, and bottom lock twists indefinitely while making a crunching noise. Every time I lift the tripod off the floor it fully extends. I was warned about this in recent reviews and assumed I'd be fine. However, they appear to be correct.

Very easy to open and bag is good addition

Fantastic Monopod Very stable Easy to use

Top quality monopod; I'd rate it as professional grade. The quick release system is just what I needed. It works well and makes life so much easier than my older conventional monopod. It's quite large and heavy compared to my older Sirui monopod which was a bit of a concern for me at first but I quickly got used to it and will be using it for shooting at events from now on. The tripod feature on the bottom seems like it might be useful in the future, I have only used it for testing so far. I can see plenty of use case scenarios for it. One thing I like is that I can put it down standing up and don't have to carry it around when not in use. The only thing that lets it down it the bag. My older Sirui tripods and monopods have better quality bags with zipper openings. The bag with this one feels like lower quality, it's a hassle to get it in and of the duffle style bag in a hurry and the printing on it looks ugly. One thing to note is that the advertised height is for using it with the tripod legs unfolded. If you use it as a conventional monopod or with the tripod feet removed you lose height. Now I'm glad I paid a bit extra for the 165 over the 145. It seems durable and I reckon it should last well. I've have other products from this company and have been happy with them.

Awesome product and is perfect for my type of photography. One small glitch but their warranty dept took care of it right away . I use a Wimberly head on it and get amazing flexibility with minimum space used
