I am using the monopod to support a Canon 7D with a 70-200mm lens on it for an extended period of time. It feels extremely solid and is very easy to adjust.

Excellent monopod for its cost and features. Very lightweight. Only have it a few weeks but it is proving durable. Priced them all; felt/played with them all in the store. The quick release feature for the locking mechanism is tight, no slippage. No need to spend up to double or triple on another brand. So far, so good.

I use this product at weddings in conjunction with a custom bracket with my D300 and SB900. I also use it when I'm taking portraits on rough terrain and sea jetty's where a tripod isn't feasible. Woks great when I'm using the Nikkor 80-400 VR zoom. I would definitely buy this product again. Good and strong.

Comments about Benro MC-91EX Carbon Fiber Monopod:

I was looking for a light weight but well made monopod[...] I liked the clamps on the legs much better than the twists, believing them to be much faster and more secure. This monopod is remarkably similar to the Manfrotto in terms of fit and finish. Certainly it is a great bargain for the price.Fit and finish are quite good, and the thing is certainly as light as can be, but is very, very sturdy.Well worth a good look.

I bought the Benro Carbon fiber tripod earlier this year and love it. Since I am planning a trip, I know I need a good monopod. Again I purchased Benro. The monopod is sturdy and lightweight. Super product.

Got this monopod to take night pictures of baseball games without the shake of holding a large camera. It worked well, kept the arms from getting tired and helped me get around with a bum knee. A solid monopod and talking to other photographers they liked them also, if they were paying and not the company.

Great product, very durable and easy to extend and collapse. I mount a 70-200 L IS and 40D on it and I have good control with the monopod. Seems very very sturdy, I recommend it without reservation.

This is a basically a knock-off of a similar Manfrotto model that costs more. It has the same type of flip-lever releases on the leg sections, although Manfrotto's have just a bit more of a solid feel. It comes with a tool for adjusting the tension of the flip releases, although it was fine out of the box. It has a reversible 1/4" - 3/8" threaded mount. It collapses down to a length that will fit into a standard roll-on suitcase.

The carbon fiber tubes that telescope together have a larger overall diameter than I expects, but the monopod is very solid as a result. I put a Kirk swivel head mount and quick relase clamp (avail. from B&H) on this an it handles very well.

This monopod has been used with a nikon D-300 and a 80 to 200 mm nikon lense. The camera/lense is quite heavy, the MC-91EX Carbon Fiber Monopod holds it up with no problems. It is easy to use and doubles as a walking stick when hiking to get wild life photos.
