Monopods

About

Stay mobile and keep your shots sharp with monopods from Ted's Cameras. A monopod gives you the steadiness of a tripod with a fraction of the bulk — perfect for sports, wildlife, events and any time you need to move fast with heavy gear. Why use a monopod? Monopods let you handle long telephoto lenses without arm fatigue, while still being free to track moving subjects. They're allowed in many venues that ban tripods, and pack down small enough to fit in a camera bag. How to choose a monopod Load rating — make sure it can support your camera plus your heaviest lens. Material — carbon fibre is lighter and stiffer; aluminium is more affordable. Height — should reach your eye when extended for comfortable shooting. Feet — fold-out tripod feet add stability for slower shutter speeds. Shop monopods at Ted's Cameras We stock monopods from Manfrotto, Gitzo, Benro, Sirui and more.
