The MPQ series monopod is made from high-quality 10-layer carbon fiber tubes. It features a waterproof and dustproof locking system and a camouflage coating. The MPQ monopods are constructed from Leofoto's latest generation 3 carbon fiber with increased density. They come equipped with a durable rubber grip and a hand strap for added security, making them suitable for cameras with large telephoto lenses. The rubber foot prevents slipping on smooth surfaces but is also removable and can be replaced with a separately available steel claw, spike, or other Leofoto accessories to ensure the best traction for the specific terrain. When not in use, the support can be collapsed by turning the ergonomic leg locks and stored in the included carrying bag. The threaded bolt at the top of the monopod features a convertible 1/4 inch and 3/8 inch screw, making it compatible with most cameras and lenses.
