Reliable aluminium monopod for camera support
The Benro A38FD is a four-section aluminium monopod built to support cameras and equipment up to 39.7 lbs. It extends to a maximum height of 61 inches and folds down to 21.3 inches for transport. The flip-lock design allows quick height changes across a variety of shooting scenarios.
Load capacity of 39.7 lbs and 61-inch reach
The 39.7 lb rating comfortably handles heavy DSLR or mirrorless kits with large lenses. At full extension the monopod reaches 61 inches, giving standing eye-level framing for most users. The four sections collapse to 21.3 inches, so it fits in standard gear bags, but the folded length limits how small a pack it can enter.
Three-leg locking base and removable rubber foot
The integrated three-leg base acts as a mini tripod, providing three points of ground contact for enhanced stability on uneven surfaces. Its ball joint enables smooth panning and tilting, and can be locked to allow independent pan-head rotation. The base is removable and can be swapped for the included rubber foot when a simpler footprint is preferred.

Questions about this item
Will the 39.7 lb load capacity support my existing DSLR and telephoto lens combination?
The monopod is rated for 39.7 lbs, which covers most DSLR and telephoto setups; verify your total rig weight stays under that figure.
How do I confirm the 3-leg locking base is stable on uneven ground after setup?
Extend the three legs, lock each section with the flip locks, and press down; the ball joint should resist movement until you deliberately pan or tilt.
Does the box include both the 3-leg base and the rubber foot, or must I buy the foot separately?
Both the 3-leg locking base and a rubber foot are supplied; the foot threads onto the monopod when you prefer a single-point stance.
