Editorial Review: Product Description: For years the EZ POD has been the choice of video enthusiast around the world to record special events in their families lives. The kid's big game, that once in a lifetime speech at a wedding, or family reunions, record all these events and many more with much less bounce or shake to the video by using the EZ POD.The SLIK EZ POD is the original spring-loaded monopod for easy, one handed fine adjustments of height.The top section is made up have a handle that is thicker than a normal monopod making it easy and comfortable to grip. Within the handle is a spring loaded top section that allows the user to make the final height adjustments easily with just one hand. One of the buttons releases the spring so the height can be adjusted up or down about 5 inches, the other button locks the spring into place once the perfect height has been reached.Other great features of the EZ POD include a folding foot brace to keep the bottom of the monopod secure in any surface. A quick release plate allows for fast mounting and un-mounting of a video camera. 5 legs section mean that this monopod folds down to a very compact 18 inches. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Slik Monopod A Great AccessorySlik EZ Pod Monopod with Pan Head and Quick-Release Overall I like this monopod. It's sturdy and easy to take on the road with me. The Pros: well made, strong; positive leg locking leavers; great fine height adjustment feature; quick-release feature is strong and positive, and really quick to change; the provided carrying strap makes it easy to carry. The Cons: just too short when fully extended for me to stand upright (I'm 5'-10" - would be worse for anyone taller), so I have ...

I have used it with a video camera, filming soccer games in all types of Chicago weather, with my film type SLR for telephoto stability, and just about the time that my SLIK thought it was in retirement, it is back in operation with a Cannon S5 IS camera. With minor cleaning she is ready to rock and roll again. All leg clips, the wing nut and the main spring are in `like new' condition even after years of work. The SLIK decal is ...

The first one broke immediately. The Slik brand is great. It is very sturdy and looks like it will last a long time. Rating: - I would give it 5 stars but.....I bought one of these quite awhile ago. I still have it. Its design is great as has already been covered here. Very nice and compact package with an ingenious design for the final adjustment. HOWEVER, on my unit, which is all black and no red as pictured, the tapered pinch piece on the end of the tightening knob is plastic and after only a few uses cracked and popped out the back. Now it only tightens part of the way before spinning. SO BE VERY CAREFUL tightening the knob in case this happens to ... Read More Rating: - Very Nice Item, Very pleasedI recently bought this monopod for my Digital Rebel XT, and large 70-200MM f2.8 lens. I spent substantial time reviewing monopods and comparing their specs prior to ordering this Slik EZ Pod. I like this monopod in that it: (1) has a quick release, (2) is very light and compact compared with many other models, (3) has a shoulder strap (which is NOT included with not other monopods - most have a cheesy wrist strap), and (4) can hold a heavier max weight (8 lbs, I think) than similar monopods. Overall, ... Read More |
