The VEO 2 AM-234 Aluminum Monopod from Vanguard is a 4-section support that has a load capacity of 11 lb and can reach a maximum height of 59.4". The 0.9 lb monopod easily collapses down to 20.1" by unlocking the twist-leg locks. Moreover, the support is an ideal tool for mirrorless cameras to large DSLRs, and the monopod can be transported to places that a tripod cannot travel too because of its larger footprint. In addition, the Anthracite finish is durable against scratches and scuffs.
