Oberwerk 2000 Tall Monopod with Grip-Action Head

All monopods are handy, but the 2000 Tall Monopod with Grip-Action Head from Oberwerk is in a league of its own. Its maximum height is 78 inches, much taller than most monopods, allowing the use of large binoculars for stargazing. Oberwerk reports a 6-foot-tall person can stand up straight and comfortably look through the eyepieces of astronomy binoculars pointed straight up at the night sky. Imagine sweeping the Milky Way with only a pair of binoculars and a collapsible staff.
