The Gitzo GM5561T is a burly carbon-fibre monopod designed to hold up to 25kg, which is pretty impressive! Weighs only 750g and collapses to about 42cm with the standard foot. Caveat: there are five segments to extend, so it can take a few seconds to get everything set up and taken down. But how often do you have to fully collapse and extend a monopod, anyway? This monopod is in excellent condition, with minor cosmetic wear; it includes a standard rubber foot, a spike foot, and a wide-base articulated platform foot.
