From Benro

Benro introduces the MSD36CB SupaDupa Black Diamond, a carbon fibre monopod engineered for shooters who need durability, speed and fluid movement in a compact, travel-ready design. Slightly slimmer and shorter than larger models in the lineup, it delivers professional strength and handling without unnecessary bulk – supporting payloads up to 40kg while weighing just 0.50kg.

 

Fast, One-Handed Control

Featuring all-metal twist locks paired with a CNC-machined aluminium flip lock, the MSD36CB allows fast, one-handed height adjustments while shooting. Its compact 6-section design extends to a full 165cm (65.7 inches) for comfortable tracking without stooping, yet collapses down to just 42cm (16.5 inches) for easy transport.

 

 

Smooth Panning, Anywhere

At the base, a rotating rubber foot with a built-in V-shaped bearing enables smooth, gliding pans without lifting the monopod. For uneven or outdoor terrain, the foot can be swapped with the included spike foot.

“This is a monopod for photographers and videographers who move fast and shoot on the go. It delivers smooth motion, quick adjustments and reliable support in a lighter, more portable package – so you can stay focused on capturing the moment, not fighting your gear.” said Helen Gibbs, Benro Marketing Manager.
