Manfrotto Element MII Reviews

Well built. Quite pleased.

By Anthony Rated 4 out of 5 Date: 2022-12-27

Quite pleased with this monopod. Obviously felt comfortable buying something made by Manfrotto and they didn’t disappoint. Fluid head is impressive and the solid base that pivots is a great addition.

Mono pod

By Michael Rated 5 out of 5 Date: 2022-10-03

Very solid mono pod, using it with Sony A7lll and A6600 with Sony 200-600mm lens. Very solid and stable to use.

Fits the Bill

By John Rated 4 out of 5 Date: 2022-08-04

The Monfrotto Element MII fits the bill of what I was hoping for and is a good update with the feet and ball rotation to my former single pin monopod. The directions could have been better, and the quick release plate sticks everytime I use it, making it not so quick a release.

Light and Strong

By George Rated 5 out of 5 Date: 2022-08-01

Although I have a very sturdy Manfrotto monopod for use with my 1DX and heavy lenses, I needed a light monopod to support my EOS 7D and a 18-300 Sigma lens on a trip to France. The Manfrotto Element filled the bill perfectly. The twist locks were easy to adjust as I moved from standing height to shorter length on my walker. I felt secure with the monopod, as it is rated to hold multiples of the setup weight. As with previous Manfrotto monopods, I have not a single complaint.

Great economy monopod.

I’m sure there are lighter, taller monopods out there but this one is perfect for the price. I leave one in the car just in case.

Pretty good`

By David Rated 4 out of 5 Date: 2022-05-12

It works well, but it’d be nice if the wrist strap rotated more freely. Also there’s a rough spot on top plate that I’ll need to file down and paint.

Basic and was free with purchase of something else

came with something I bought for free. basic and you can get. but its a good quality basic

Well made but with some caveats

By John Rated 4 out of 5 Date: 2022-11-08

I have several monopods. They are useful for traveling especially if you don’t want to bring a larger tripod. I was specially looking for one that had legs and was free standing. This one seemed to fit the bill and it was priced reasonably. The thing that is important to understand is that for shooting video the fluid head is in the base. This is good because it allows you to shoot video with one hand and doesn’t require a separate head. Very convenient. However, as a very standing unit it is not stable. Using a full size camera it will fall over. It’s fine with an iPhone or a small mirrorless DSLR. Mechanically it is well made. The extension is very precise and locks well. The legs fold out easily and lock well. It does not come with a head. I already had a Manfrotto mini ball head. The monopod has a 3/8 thread so it cannot be used with most consumer camera without a head. With caveats it is a very good piece of equipment.
