Cons
Expert Opinion
Professional reviewers and editors have not published specific evaluations of this exact model. Related Benro monopods are praised for their robust 39.7 lb (18 kg) capacity and tall height, but the lack of a 3‑leg locking base—present on comparable A38FD and A48FD models—is noted as a drawback for studio or uneven‑ground use.
What Users Say
Everyday users have not left direct reviews for this specific monopod, but indirect feedback on similar Benro Adventure AL models highlights appreciation for the lightweight build and impressive height, with no recurring complaints beyond the missing quick‑release and base stability features.
Common Complaints
The monopod’s lack of a 3‑leg base or spiked foot can make it feel less stable on rough ground; the thinnest leg sections may flex under full load; and the absence of a quick‑release plate slows camera changes.
