I like this monopod for its aluminum alloy construction and its "heft". I was looking for a heavy duty stick and this met the mark. I imagine most people will use this monopod for hiking and steadying camera's for nature photography. The mount at the top is padded and offers 3/8" and 1/4" mounting options. So this stick would work nicely for that intended purpose. The screw is double sided so you can change out on the fly. I use the monopod for a slightly different purpose. It serves as a speaker mount and a security device when I go for my after dinner walk in the evening. I actually mount a small bluetooth speaker at the top of the monopod to listen to podcasts. The adjustable sections allow you to customize the height of the speaker to your ear. I never liked walking with headphones since its safer to be able to hear what is going on around you. The stick also can be used as a safety/personal protection device. When its partially collapsed, the sections of the monopod serve to make the stick more rigid. You could deter an animal or even a "bad guy" with this. The monopod does have a metal, pointed tip at the lower end. The tip is covered by a removable "boot".

This review is for the "K&F Concept Camera Monopod, 63" Aluminum Photography Monopod with 5-Section Height, Lightweight & Portable Camera Accessories" that is $22 at the time of writing.

This universal aluminum monopod for DSLR cameras is an excellent addition to any novice or hobby photographer's gear set. The monopod's lightweight design makes it easy to carry, yet it's sturdy enough to support a range of DSLR cameras without wobbling. Personally, it was compatible with my Nikon D3400 without issue.

This monopod's adjustable height is a valuable feature, allowing you to capture shots from various angles and positions you might not be able to achieve otherwise. It's especially useful for sports photography, events as fast action needs a steady camera as well as in low-light situations where you need extra stability.

While it may not replace a tripod for long exposures or heavy gear, this monopod is perfect for recreational, on-the-go shooting. Highly recommended for anyone seeking reasonably-priced stability without the bulk of a full tripod.

This is a very sturdy monopod. The locking clips are tight and I had no issues with slippage. The top is a 3/8” threaded rod so you can attach your favorite ball head easily or you can flip the threaded rod to expose a ¼” threaded rod. I prefer a ball head, but the ¼” connector may be better for an action camera or phone rig. I believe the body to be aluminum. It is not at all heavy, yet very sturdy. I am 5’8” and the monopod expands to give me plenty of height and then some. The foot has a rubber pad, but that can be removed and underneath is a pointed foot. It also comes with a wrist strap, which is handy, and the foam grip is good quality. Great product. Would recommend. Good price point. Five stars.

Review of K&F Concept Camera Monopod, 63" Aluminum Photography Monopod with 5-Section Height, Lightweight & Portable Camera Accessories

I’m an artist/painter that does mostly landscapes. I do a lot of my work in the studio from photos. I’ve done the driving to sites, taking out my camera and tripod and setting up and taking shots thing, or just holding the camera. This would make that process very simple while adding some stability.

I’ve coupled mine with a ball head I had lying around and a quick release plate. I recommend at least a quick release plate as it will make using the Monopod a bit easier to connect and disconnect the camera. The Monopod comes with a 3/8” and 1/4” screw, you have to remove the cap at the top to reverse the screw. You can get the monopod connected and disconnected by spinning the stick into the camera hole, but as I said it is a much easier process with a quick release plate. The ball head allows quick rearrangement to portrait position or selfie position, so depending on your needs I recommend coupling this with a ball head as well.

The stick itself is strong, well made, and has release cams that can all be opened at once with one finger on each cam lever or separately to lengthen the stick. This is a nice addition to my photography toolkit.

I got this monopod to replace one I didn't like very much. This one is more compact at 17" collapsed, and it has a rubber foot that stays put. It's pretty lightweight for having four extendable sections. The section locks feel sturdy and make a nice angled shape when collapsed that makes it easy to stuff into a backpack pocket without getting hung up. The strap is also removable.

For the money, this is a pretty solid choice.

5-Section Height, very lightweight stick. easy to carry with the wrist strap. great convenience when walking. the stability is good. but I notice if you put a lot of weight on the stick it will start to slide down as if it's not already locked in place. I'm 5.5 in height so the stick is about a foot or two taller than me. which is perfect when I am using the stick for a tripod. I love the stability and highly recommend it.

I don’t need a heavy duty monopod as a simple enthusiast photographer. This fits the bill for me. I can store it away easily and it’s lightweight. When I do need it, I just pop the flip locks and drop the legs and lock it. Easy. This is preferred to the twist knobs that may take several turns to unlock and lock. And you can’t tell whether they’re locked or unlocked. The flip locks allow visible confirmation of whether or not they’re locked. The top has a 1/4 20 screw aaaand a 3/8 screw with just a flip. So you can mount whatever head you want. I just have a ballhead attached to mine so that I can mount my camera easily.
An overall great monopod if you need something light!

Is this the best that you can get...No, but for the price you can't beat it, especially with a minor addition. It is well made, it seems to be strong, the camps hold well. I am 5'10" and when I full extend, the top of this monopod comes to be nose. It is light and compact when not in use. I don't like threading and unthreading attachments into my camera's tripod socket, I like to leave me arca-swiss plate attached, so I was able to add an arca-swill compatible mount onto this monopod easily (first photo). This will be great for my upcoming vacation in the mountains.

I needed a lightweight monopod for travel, so I'm pleased that this one weighs in at just under 12 ounces. It's budget priced, so I wasn't expecting a world class monopod - the quality is good for the price. The four adjustment clamps are very easy to use and they're holding firmly, and only time will tell how well they hold up with frequent use. The pointed metal tip is covered by a rubber piece, adding to the monopod's versatility.

This is a great monopod for the price. The sections extend smoothly and have a positive lock to prevent unwanted collapsing. The screw mount on top can be flipped to reveal 3/8" or 1/4" mounts. The foam grip is probably the weakest part of this and I am expecting the foam to break apart over time, but for now it is soft and grippy. The rubber tip at the bottom can also be removed if you need a more positive stake into dirt.
