Manfrotto Element MII Reviews
It works for me.
By Linda Rated 5 out of 5 Date: 2022-03-22
This monopod works for me in doing on the move nature photography. It holds my camera steady for making video recordings and photographing in places I can’t take a heavy tripod. I did buy a titling rotating Manfrotto head that attaches to the top of the monopod. It helps with angled up or down photos.
Light weight heavy hitter

The Manfrotto Element M11 Video Monopod packs alot of great features in a small light weight package. Versatile tool for capturing video in the field.
Convenient and smooth monopod
By Zoya Rated 5 out of 5 Date: 2021-10-01
As I shoot photo and video I needed the stabilization which is convenient, fast to begin to use, light and stable. Really it’s a great thing for all my purposes
Solid and Sturdy
By Marc Rated 3 out of 5 Date: 2021-05-06
ONE BIG NEGATIVE is the mount screw does not match ANY of my photo DSLR’s. Only fits my Sony Video – yet no adapter..
NOT a 4-section monopod
By Jon Rated 3 out of 5 Date: 2021-04-27
‘s product description is wrong. This is a 5-section monopod (as shown in the picture , not a 4-section monopod (as described in the text.) It has 4 leg extensions in addition to the body itself. The bottom section is very slim and a bit flexible. The monopod is very well made, but having to deploy an extra section is a nuisance.
GREAT
By Phil Rated 5 out of 5 Date: 2020-12-10
Works great sturdy yet lite to carry into the field
Strong and makes a great cane
By Bertil Rated 5 out of 5 Date: 2022-02-26
Purchased as a mono pod used it as a cane strong and never gave way. I’m sure it will be a great monopod but for my trip to Albuquerque it was a great cane for after hip surgery
Convenient monopod
By Ct Rated 5 out of 5 Date: 2022-02-17
The Manfrotto Element Monopod is easy to use with extension twisting rings. It is light weight but sturdy enough to use was walking stick. It allows you to fix simple attachment for the camera. I use it on bright sunny day when I don’t want to carry the heavier tripod with Gimbal head.
