It’s a good size that extends to just under 6ft tail. Easy to carry and transport for hiking etc. Attached to my camera bag very well.
But expensive however we’ll see if it lasts. Taking it with me next week for a hiking weekend.

I bought this few weeks ago and I absolutely love it. I ised it for few portraits and some long exposure fotos in the London nightsky.It is easy to set up at the required hight, very firm and solid and at the same time folds small and is not that heavy as it looks. It also has a small novel and a scale that will help with the panorama stitched images. And all of this for half the price of other brands.

It’s very sturdy and easy to use

Here in the UK, the only way I could get my hands on the Matterport Pro 2 was without the accessory pack - but replicated from the photos.
That Camera is big and heavy and should not be atop that tripod.

I document events on Britain's Railway and upload them to my YouTube channel, and as most stations frown upon the use of tripods on the platforms I was looking for a monopod to help brace the camera. Having looked at several monopods I stumbled across this. Wow, tripod and monopod in one unit, and less than £60.
I have other products by K&N and this product comes up to their high standards. The tripod comes in a sturdy box. Inside the box is a nice carry bag with both a velcro handle and clip on shoulder strap. The zips on the bag are sturdy and unzipping the bag reveals the tripod, tubes, instructions and allen key. The tripod head is contained in a soft black drawstring bag. One thing that I like about K&N products is the way they package their products.
The monopod forms one of the legs and is unscrewed from the hinge section. You can add one of the two extensions tube to give you extra height. The clamps are twist lock type and whilst not as quick to set up as my other tripod that has tabs to lock the legs it doesn't take too long to extend the sections and lock them into place. I found the monopod more than capable of supporting my camcorder rig, and the pan on the head was adjustable by tightening or slackening off the thumbscrew.
The tripod has the advantages of being light weight, small and compact, but also very versatile. The legs can spread out far beyond my main heavy tripod to give low level and steady photography. One thing you have to be aware of is that there is some flexing, and the tripod is light weight, but they include a nice spring loaded hook that can be used to hang a weight or bag from to reduce the risk of the tripod from tipping. There is some flex in the legs, but this is really a travel tripod. Having the ability to use the tripod on those occasions where there is no objections, but also to convert it to a monopod when required without having to carry additional equipment is a bonus.
The fact you are getting two products in one makes me recommend this product. You won't be disappointed - I wasn't !

Easy to use, quick release and very sturdy. Small when folded - for me, perfect. Heavier than a carbon one of course but, at this price, it great.
