Digital camera reviews of Velbon Neopod-7 Carbon Fiber Monopod

Digital camera Review: Velbon Monopod
Summary: 4 Stars

So far so good. I've seen a number of these popping up under cameras of other professional sports photographers I know. It isn't Italian, but it seems to do the job. Lightweight, sturdy and isn't bent like my Gitzos! Thumbs up.

Summary of Velbon Neopod-7 Carbon Fiber Monopod

A Lightweight but very strong carbon fibre monopod with 4 anti-twist leg sections. Carbon fiber is lighter and more durable than aluminum and will fulfill all your monopod needs. The Neopod 7 includes a rubber-tipped foot, high-density foam grip around the top leg section, shoulder strap and accessory ring. Complement the Neopod 7 with a Velbon panhead (optional) for complete professional camera equipment support.
The Velbon Neopod-7 Carbon Fiber Monopod boasts amazingly strong, superior load-bearing capabilities. Covered with a scratch-resistant Neoprene Grip, which is helpful in cold or damp weather, the monopod features large rubber twist-leg locks for ease in extending and contracting the legs and non-skid rubber foot. With a 66.9-inch maximum extended height and fold down length of 20.9 inches, it weighs a light and portable 1.7 pounds.

What's in the box:
Includes a velcro padded strap, which can be detached for use around your neck, and a monopod pocket, that attaches to your belt, both for greater stability. Also a handy accessory hook.
