The iFootage Cobra 2 A180-II Aluminium Monopod is a versatile support system designed for both photography and video. With a strong 8kg load capacity and a maximum height of 180cm, it provides reliable stability for a wide range of camera setups.

Its low-profile tripod base adds smooth swivelling movement for video, with adjustable friction and a lock for controlled panning. When needed, the base folds away to reveal a standard rubber foot, allowing for traditional monopod use. The base can also be removed and used separately as a compact mini tripod—ideal for low-angle or tabletop shooting.

• Photographers needing height and stability on location
• Videographers capturing smooth panning shots

How it works

4-section monopod with flip locks
Quickly extend or collapse the monopod using flip locks, giving you fast height adjustment up to 180cm—useful for overhead or eye-level shooting.

Swivelling tripod base
The fold-out base provides added stability and enables smooth panning for video. Adjustable friction lets you fine-tune resistance, while the lock secures the monopod when needed.

Removable mini tripod base
Detach the base to use it independently for low-angle or tabletop setups, adding flexibility to your kit.

Rubber foot option
Fold the base away to expose a standard rubber foot for conventional monopod use when mobility is key.

Dual mounting thread
Supports both 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 connections for compatibility with a wide range of cameras and heads.
