The monopod's foam grip prevents your hands from feeling cold during the winter months, and a wrist strap adds security from losing your grip. The included belt clip allows you to carry the support on your belt while traveling. A spike extends out by retracting the foot, so the monopod stabilizes on ice, rocks, or softer terrain.

Could a gimbal head be used with this monopod? I was hoping to find something for travel to use with my Canon 100-400mm lens and a Gimbal head. Thank you.
Asked by: Sonja
Yes a gimbal head would be compatible with the Oben CTM-2600 monopod. It has a standard 3/8-16 mount and most gimbals mount to a tripod or monopod using a 3/8-16.
