Vanguard's Tracker AP-284 Aluminum Monopod provides solid, lightweight camera support for up to 17.63 lbs (8 kg). The rugged aluminum alloy monopod weighs in at only 1.25 lbs (0.57 kg) and can be operated from 20.25" (51.4 cm) to 5.18' (1.67 m) off the ground. One-twist leg locks make adjusting the four sections a snap, and the adjustable spike or rubber swivel foot combined with the attached strap help you keep it steady on any terrain. An attached carabiner allows you to attach the monopod to a belt or camera bag.
