Leofoto MP-365C Carbon Fiber 5 Section Monopod - Max Load 17kg, Max Height 1755mm
The Leofoto MP-365C Carbon Fiber 5 Section Monopod is a high-strength, ultra-light professional support designed for photographers who need maximum stability with fast mobility, especially when using long lenses in sports, wildlife, or action shooting. With a 17kg maximum load capacity, 10-layer carbon fibre construction, and a maximum height of 1755mm, it’s built to comfortably support heavy DSLR or mirrorless setups while remaining very portable at roughly 598g, making it a reliable field companion for situations where tripods are too slow or restrictive. The 5-section twist-lock design allows quick setup and compact storage, while the rigid carbon structure helps reduce vibration during handheld tracking shots.

The monopod's advanced leg lock system allows for effortless adjustments with just a 1/4 turn, providing quick and secure locking and unlocking of the legs. For adaptability across various terrains, the removable feet can be easily swapped with steel claws, spikes, and other accessories, ensuring optimal traction and stability wherever your photography takes you.
Designed with longevity in mind, the monopod includes one-piece shims, which are significantly stronger and more reliable than traditional two-piece shims, reducing the need for frequent maintenance. A rotating wrist strap offers added support and security during transport, while the silicone handle, made from waterproof and slip-proof material, guarantees a firm and stable grip even when wearing gloves.
