The Smith-Victor 58" QuikGrip Monopod with Pistol Grip Ball Head is a 4-section support that extends to a maximum height of 58" and collapses to a length of 23.5". Once you have your desired height, the 2.6 lb monopod locks into place via the flip leg locks. The monopod meets the need for videographers and photographers because of the folding feet and pistol grip head, which pivots smoothly for panning or tracking a subject while moving. The pistol grip ball head has a trigger that can be squeezed to maneuver a camera weighing up to 8.8 lb. Additionally, the head is removable from the monopod, and it can be reattached to the folding feet to create a convenient tabletop tripod that measures 7.75" in height.

Quality Product
Works as easy as I expected. The pistol grip ball head makes composing and shooting very easy. Camera steadiness ideal for extreme tele-photo shoots. I would defiantly recommend this product to anybody who wants to eleminate camera shake.
Difficult to use
I have Smith-Victor strobes so I had high expectations since the strobes have served me well for the last 13 years. I was disappointed though because I found this Monopod difficult to use. I thought with the feet that it would be more stable than it was. I also thought that the ball head would be more universal so that I could use it on a tripod that I had that the head finally bit the dust. It is heavy and seems to be well made. I like the storage bag as well. In all fairness maybe after more uses I might change my mind but right now I wouldn't buy it again if I had a do over.
