Canon Monopod 100 
2008-06-24
Great value - the Canon 100 is comparable to monopods costing twice as much elsewhere. Would highly recommend it.
So Far Very Useful 
2008-06-21
I have not had this monopod for very long. This is my first monopod and so far I like it a lot. It's not the strongest piece of equipment but It does well with my Evolt E 500. I have not used it very long so it may disappoint me still. I will update this review if there are any major flaws. One problem I do have is that there is no quick release plate. This makes a problem with screwing and unscrewing your camera from the monopod. The threads of the camera screw can ware out creating an expensive problem. A separate attachment can probably be bought.

The Canon Monopod makes shooting all types of photos easier and far more stable than you can do without it. It's also far easier to use than a tripod. Glad I got it, I'm very pleased.

Excellent Monopod. Worth the Little Extra Money! 
2008-06-11
High quality all the way. For the little extra money that you will pay vs. buying a cheap monopod, you will not be disappointed. The swivel head is worth the little extra that you pay. Many other monopods do not come with at swivel head.
Light and sturdy

Do you really need a good monopod if you have a good tripod like the Slik Professional Universal Deluxe Tripod with 3-Way Panhead and Panoramic Photo Guide? After a photo trip to the woods, the answer became obvious: you won't want to lug that heavy piece of iron for long.
This canon is light, unfolds fast, remains at whichever level you need it, and gives that extra stability; I even got a few nice macro shots thanks to this. And for the price (particularly after the sticker shock of other Canon accessories - I'm looking at you Canon RS-80N3 Remote Switch for EOS-1V/1VHS, EOS-3, EOS-D2000, D30, D60, 1D, 1Ds, EOS-1D Mark II, 10D, 20D), it's a no brainer.
Compact and handy! 
2008-07-13
I like carrying a pocket point-and-shoot camera, but needed more stability for some shots. I purchased the Canon 100 monopod about a week ago, to use with my PowerShot SD750. The body is light, but very rigid - there's no flimsy feel to it. The rubber footing is minimal, but adequate for concrete and rough stone - you might want to replace the foot for more exotic materials. I let a coworker try his Canon Rebel XTi with it - he had nothing but good things to say!
For best results, practice your breathing when shooting with monopods - it really reduces shaking in low-light images.
Super Monopod 
2008-07-13
I highly recommend the Canon Monopod 100. Sturdy, good looking, and inexpensive. I'm 6'3" and it's just tall enough.
One happy photographer!

Concept is flawed 
2008-07-07
This product is of good quality, but it doesn't do much. I understand that if you have a 500mm lens and want something to support its weight, then it makes sense, but this will not replace a tripod, in fact it does not even come close to the effectiveness of IS (image stabilizer). I was looking for something to stabilize my camera in low light conditions (using the zoom) and this does not work.
Light, cheap, solid 
2008-06-30
One of the rules of photography is that for any serious work, you're going to be on a tripod. Tripods aren't possible in a lot of situations either by needing to be mobile or being in a busy environment and not wanting to be a trip hazard. A monopod gives you most of the stability of a tripod when you can't use one. Try using one in a darkened aquarium.
I did my first wedding shoot using only non-IS lenses with this monopod and had very few tossers due to blur. Yet I was still mobile enough to shoot a wedding. I know how steady my hands are, and a similar keeper ratio simply would not have been possible without it.
It's also solid enough to use as a walking cane or possibly for self-defense. It collapses short enough to not be a burden to haul around in my equipment bag, meaning that it goes where my camera goes. Absolutely worth the money.
