Ifootage continues to impress! When one piece of gear serves so many purposes, im sold! Cant recommend this enough. Any thoughts on monopods?

I love seeing photography tools come out that do exactly what they are supposed to do in a perfect way. This monopod seems like a great, straight forward photo tool. Thanks for sharing! Roger also gets a follow for his amazing work!

It is exactly why it makes sense to team up with ifootage - their gear is brilliant, I must admit. And oh yes, Roger definitely deserves a follow, his work is really spectacular! So cool he wanted to join in on the video. And thanks a bunch for watching as always Carl. If you ever need a monopod, you know where to get it he he

Thanks a bunch Miller! Appreciate it!

I have the Cobra 2 and used it even in the ocean to make astro shots. Held well and feels good. I will get the new one too though since the longer legs and the newer release system is far more practical and useful.

They are significant improvements, I can testify to that. The cobra, not matter what version, is one of my favourite camera accessories for adventure outdoors to filming in studio at home. You wont regret getting the new one! Oh, and cheers for watching!

@@DanielBryn I researched the mini tripod (because I like the longer legs as your video just showed) and it’s compatible with the cobra 2 monopod and I am using the previous mini tripod on my hand held video cage so the newer version can be for my cobra 2 monopod. I just ordered it from Pro AV. For less than the cost of a Tank of Gas!

@@colinthecameraguy Yesss, I probably should have mentioned that its compatible with the old versions also. I think you will be happy with the choice. Its sleeker as well, and actually weighs the same

Hooray! My Cobra 3 Low Profile Mini Tripod just arrived so that can now be used with my Cobra 2 monopod (as it’s more stable than the previous version) and the Cobra 2 Mini Tripod can stay on my Video Cage where it can cope with the weight of the rig and also provide Low Down weight for stability when I’m doing Run & Gun. Perfect 🎉🎉

My experience with monopods is that they are not stable. You need to hold them 95% of the time, and if not, they need to be in a completely flat surface (if not, forget it). A normal tripod, good one, does not add too much weight (and dimension, same). And many normal tripods are also monopods if you need (holding them, of course).

@DanielBryn

Yep, if you need to do longer exposures etc, id go for a regular tripod. These new ones from ifootage are slimmer and weighs less, so i travel with the mini tripod most of the time, and add the monopod if I need. Its all about different need, and for me this is better.

I just received my cobra 3 A189F. This is my first monopod. And I have to say that I am disappointed by its stability. If you touch it, it moves... I wanna took macro photos by setting manually my focus, but it seems impossible. I think it is more convenient for video, or wildlife photo to help to support heavy lens, knowing that you'll always use high speed shutter. Or use it indoor as a flash support.

The stock footage examples looked amazing! Do you shot LOG and grade, or use one of the film sims?

Do you think the pedal version is optimal or the other? Any concern about not being able to lock at an angle?

Hey Bacons! I have ended up with the other version (not pedal). I just liked it better, and I have no need to lock it for now at least. No xoncerns for me, and im now travelling for a year, only with the monopod and mini tripod. No big tripods for me, no Sir!

Thanks. How safe and stable is it to use this monopod for long-exposure photos? Suitable? Thanks, Stefano

@DanielBryn

Жыл бұрын

Hey Stefano, depending on how long it is. For superlong exposures or several second shots, id go for a tripod, or just use the minipod that follows the monopod. I do however prefer the monopod and small tripod solution rather than a big tripod. Hope this helped

Would this work well for sports video, like American football or soccer?

I guess... Never tested for that, but with practice, I think itd do just fine. To me its just a very well made, sturdy monopod with smart solutions. Solid piece of engineering. And the quick connects are great!
