This Cobra 3 Strike Aluminum Monopod with Low Profile Minipod Base from iFootage is a lightweight aluminum monopod featuring a single release lever that simultaneously extends all three segments. The monopod offers a robust 11 lb load capacity and supports gimbals for fluid video movement. Its one-touch design provides rapid deployment making it easy to use for action-packed adventures. The Cobra 3 features a swiveling, folding base that adds stability and makes it easy to follow a subject while capturing video. Additionally, the legs fold up to expose the rubber foot allowing you to use the monopod without the swiveling base. The base is also removable and converts to a mini tripod for macro or tabletop photography. It features the same quick disconnect collar system as the monopod and has a locking pedal to adjust the swivel angle quickly.
