Leofoto MP-284C Monopod

The professional Leofoto MP-284C monopod is a solid carbon monopod for serious work. This carbon monopod has a carrying capacity of 18 kilograms and a maximum working height of 165 centimetres without a ball head. The monopod weighs 414 grams and when folded is only 52.3 centimetres long. Compact, strong and with an excellent usable working height: an ideal monopod for serious sports and nature photographers.

Extremely strong carbon monopod

Carbon tripods are comparatively very light and at the same time extremely strong. Moreover, a carbon tripod absorbs vibrations. The professional Leofoto MP-284C carbon monopod is certainly no exception to that rule. With a load capacity of 18 kg, you can use almost any professional camera/lens combination on this monopod. The monopod is made of cross-woven and reinforced carbon fibre and the leg has four sections with a maximum diameter of 28mm and a minimum diameter of 19mm. The tripod plate has a combined 1/4-inch and 3/8-inch tripod screw so that you can easily mount a (compact) ball head such as the Leofoto VH-10. A metal bracket with a wrist strap ensures that you cannot accidentally drop this Leofoto monopod.

Tripod with rubber foot

The robust tripod leg of the MP-284C is made up of four easy-to-extend sections. This monopod is secured with a flexible screw lock or a twist lock. This means that you can easily turn the leg loose and tight with a simple turn of the screws. To prevent cold hands during use, Leofoto has applied a rubber foam covering to the upper leg section. The monopod is equipped with a shock-absorbing rubber foot for a stable grip on any surface. If the circumstances make this necessary, you can exchange this foot for a separately available stainless steel spike. It is also possible to turn the monopod into a tripod by placing a monopod foot underneath (not included).
