The Oben ACM-1400 4-Section Aluminum Monopod with Tilt Head Kit is a B&H Photo Kit which includes the ACM-1400 4-Section Aluminum Monopod and the VH-R2 Tilt Monopod Head.

The Oben ACM-1400 4-Section Aluminum Monopod is a lightweight, sturdy one-legged camera support that enables you to capture steady shots without needing to carry or set up a full tripod. The monopod's flip-lock leg stages descend easily and lock into place securely, so setup is a breeze.

The Oben VH-R2 Tilt Monopod Head is a compact head specifically designed for monopods. The tilt head has 180° one-axis movement, allowing you to position your camera for a 90° vertical format when using a monopod. Included is a 1/4-20"-3/8" reducer bushing, which makes this head compatible with either 1/4"-20 or 3/8" mounting threads.

Oben ACM-1400 4-Section Aluminum Monopod

The Oben ACM-1400 4-Section Aluminum Monopod is a lightweight, sturdy one-legged camera support that enables you to capture steady shots without needing to carry or set up a full tripod. The monopod's flip-lock leg stages descend easily and lock into place securely, so setup is a breeze. Maximum height is 61", which facilitates comfortable operation for most users. It can support up to 17.6 lb, so you can mount any DSLR camera with most lenses, a point & shoot model, or even a compact camcorder.

For fine control over camera orientation, you can also attach a head to the monopod's reversible 3/8"-16 & 1/4"-20 mounting screw. Three set screws underneath the collar enable you to fasten the head securely to the plate. An Allen key is included & attached to the top leg section, so you're always ready to make adjustments.

The monopod collapses to just 19.2", so you can stow it in most carry-on bags. At only 1.05 lb, it's the perfect travel companion – lightweight, compact, and simple to operate – but highly capable and ready in an instant to help you capture the perfect shot.

Oben ACM-1400 Reviews

Quality for the Price

By Nick
Rated 5 out of 5

The monopod is good quality for the price. It feels sturdy under the weight of my camera and large lens. I would take off half of a star because I dislike the locking mechanisms. I feel like all tension clamp locks should have a way to tighten them as they eventually loosen over time; 4.5 out of 5.

Perfect for my need

This is what i need for my camera with funijon 100-400. Handy and very light.

question

I'm looking for a good connection between the screw-on attachment & the tilt head, does the ACM-1400 Monopod fit securely with the VH-R2 Oben Swivel/Tilt head when using the 3/8 -1/4 reducer bushing?
Asked by: Anonymous
Yes, the connection between the ACM-1400 monopod and VH-R2 tilt head will be solid when using the included 3/8-16 to 1/4-20 reducer bushing. As the male thread sizes of the monopod are 1/4 -20 & 3/8 -16, you will have the option of using the reducer bushing, or leaving it out.

question

Would this monopod and head be sturdy enough for use with a Nikon D800 and 200mm f/2 with TC-20E III? I plan to use it for backyard birding.
Asked by: Anonymous
The monopod is good but the head supports at the most 11 lbs and you are on the edge of support weight. The general rule is the support should hold around double you are going to put on it.

Asked by: Brianna
Godox AD200 Pocket Flash can be mounted on Oben ACM-1400 4-Section Aluminum Monopod with Tilt Head Kit. But using a light stand is highly advised.

HELLO 3 leg locking base for monopods (B&H BEVT2) is compatible with OBEN ACM 1400?
Asked by: fernando adrian
No, the Benro 3 leg locking base for monopods is not compatible with the ACM-1400 4-Section Aluminum Monopod, since the rubber end cap on the ACM-1400 Monopod is not removable.

Will this fit a Canon T-6 with a Tamron 18-400 lens or would it be to heavy for it?
Asked by: Paul
The monopod will handle is with no problem. It is rated to handle over 25 lbs. The amount of torque the head has to handle is the only question. It depends on how the weight is distributed in your setup. If your setup is nicely balanced on the mount this would work fine. I do not like to tighten the head hard, in the case where your setup is very lens heavy. It is a nice setup and I like it.
