Duo Flex 2-in-1 Professional Tripod and Monopod

I found this duo flex tripod/monopod a very strong built and stable tripod. It also has a hook in the middle if you want to stabilize it more in windy weather. The tripod-monopod switch is easy but you need to carry the separate adaptor with you to make it into a monopod. Overall I found this a very useful product for photo enthusiasts.

This monopod/tripod is awesome and just what I needed :D I do alot of filmes and tested the monopod for filming on my canon 550D today and it looked great :D with a little imagination the monopod is extremly useful! I did struggle a bit figuring out how to transform it, but quickly managed to do what I wanted and now it is very easy. NOTE: This is my first monopod so i can't really compare it to others, but for me it works great! The tripod also work very fine it is simple and not too heavy so it is perfect for me :D The little bag it comes in is very good too. This is very simple, but the legs are a bit too thin in the end sometimes, but this doesnt really bother me xD Worth buying if you are not an amature and not a proffessional but in the middle like me haha :D - Marie-Louise Wahl Østmo

However removing it from the tripod is a bit cumbersome and isn't as intuitive as you would think. This pod-hybrid is excellent for DSLR's like the Canon EOS series but for heavier cameras like the Canon 5D I suggest looking into a sturdier option. But for those with minimal needs and just can't keep your hands steady, this product is a great option and certainly for the price. My only other gripe is that it comes with a carrying bag but not all the pieces fit in there easily. It takes some puzzle work.

Very nice and versatile but somewhat complicated compared to my past tripods.

Nice and light, great for traveling. I love the monopod feature.

attachment plate is funky and a bit fussy to get locked in. Otherwise, works as expected with my video camera.

Love the monopod option, good quality, good price, all joints hold firm. Nice bag that perfectly attaches to the bottom of my backpack, head doesn't have alot of features but that can be replaced if you need something more.

I purchased this product from FRYS electronics. So far I am satisfied with it. The plate where the camera sits on is metal and not plastic (very good thing). I highly recommend this product especially for beginner level photography. It has a good amount of weight to it for stability and it won't move as easy.

Muy bueno, los materiales son de buena calidad y el poder convertirlo en monopod es bastante útil, vale la pena

Es firme, la cámara queda bien, tiene una calidad aceptable. Lo que no me gustó fue que quise tomar fotos de la luna con un telefoto y el tripie no sostiene a la cámara, lo cual se nota en la foto. Si no lo vas a usar a velocidades menores de 1/60 se puede usar sin problema alguno, pero mientras mayor sea el tiempo en que el obturador esta abierto y la distancia focal mas se nota el movimiento.

El servicio de amazon y estafeta ....excelente mis respetos. Solo dos pequeños detalles. 1.- La zapata no llega bien a la cámara y queda dando vuelta. lo resolvi poniendo una ronda de presion. 2.- Los seguros de las patas del tripie se me hicieron muy sencillas y poco seguras a lo cual no le tendría confianza al 100, pero por lo que pagas está bien. busquenme en youtube como luiseloir ya que subire unos videos.
