The lightweight aluminum National Geographic Photo 3-in-1 combines a monopod, a monopod with a support base, and a tabletop tripod. It weighs 0.86 kg, can support up to 2.5 kg, reaches a height of 189.5 cm, and measures 78 cm when folded. It includes a three-way head, a quick-release plate, a smartphone holder for devices up to 8.4 cm, and a padded case.
One support, three ways to use it
This lightweight aluminum system transforms in an instant from a standalone monopod to a monopod with a support base or a compact tabletop tripod. It’s perfect for cameras and smartphones, travel, vlogging, video calls, and shooting above the crowd.
Monopod, support base, and mini tripod
The removable three-legged base can be used under the monopod for guided shots with light support, or it can be attached directly to the three-way head to create a tabletop tripod. In this configuration, the system is practical for macro photography, product shots, streaming, and video calls.
Important: When using the monopod freestanding at its maximum height, the manufacturer’s instructions recommend a maximum load of 0.5 kg; the 2.5 kg rating applies to handheld configurations and the tabletop tripod.
Ready for Both Phones and Cameras
The three-way head features a separate rotation lock and a platform that tilts 90° for portrait-oriented photography. The quick-release plate uses a standard 1/4″ screw, and the included mount accommodates smartphones up to 8.4 cm wide.
A lightweight travel companion
The monopod’s four aluminum sections are quickly adjusted using lever locks. A foam grip improves handling, and the removable rubber foot conceals a spike for suitable surfaces. The entire unit folds down to 78 cm and stores in the included padded case with a shoulder strap.
