In addition to an LX100, will this monopod be adequate for a bridge camera like the Panasonic FZ1000?

I have a t5i which is the 70d with a rode video mic pro and a light with a metal extension on the top to hold a led light and the mic with extended battery grip. So all and all I have roughly 7-8 lbs and it's working fine. With a kit lens and I've been playing with 28mm usm lens. I film a wedding at the end of October so I'll know for sure, until then it's all test footage

All tripods come with 1/4"-20tpi (threads per inch) bolt for cameras , camcorders, binoculars etc with tripod socket unless it's the larger HD 3/8"-16tpi bolt like on my Bogen 501 video head that has both. Yes your Nikon L100 would work on this tripod along with the billion other products with 1/4" tripod socket.Here is a listing that shows the same tripod for the L100.Professional PRO 72" Super Strong Tripod With Deluxe Soft Carrying Case For The Nikon Coolpix L100 Digital Camera

The battery charge shows on MY camera, so I assume it will on yours (Panasonic Lumix FZ-200). As for the better choice, I haven't any experience with the "chilipower," but I'm satisfied with Wasabi (use it for my smaller camera as well).

Hello, This monopod has a 22lb load capacity. It will handle the 70-200mm2.8 lens without a problem. Regards, Roozbeh OC camera 949-347-1276

I mounted a bridge camera using the supplied 1/4" adapter. That worked fine.But as some of the other questions have alluded to, the tripod is a little bit shaky. It is very light weight.

No, I'm sorry, I don't believe it will. The lense is too long. Thanks...after looking up this Panasonic FZ200, I know want that camera! :)

I own the FZ200 - it does NOT work with the FZ200. The end that connects to the camera is a different physical size so this tube will not connect. Panasonic makes a DMW-LA7 that fits the FZ200.

The monopod that comes with it should be ok.. However this lens doesn't hold very good on the camera body.. Also don't expect too much with the quality either.. But i guess that's what you would get with a 100 $ lens...

I just worked on a shoot with this monopod. We were able to balance it with a 50mm L on a 6D but our 24-70mm L wouldn't work.

It isn't. The "equivalent" to the LX100 is the new D-Lux Type 109--the comparable model to the D-Lux 6 is the DMX-LX7.I say "equivalent" in quotes, because the equivalency is somewhat false--the Leicas have a superior build, better materials, a cleaner design, Leica Glass made in Germany (as opposed the Panasonic's Japanese glass with Leica "Specs"), and a copy of Lightroom. Thanks for looking!

Yes, it should fit that camera as well as it fits the nx1000. They are basically the same devices.

Nope! I wouldn't risk it. This thing is crap. I have the 290 series Tripod and Monopod from Manfrotto and am very satisfied. Not worth it to skimp a few bucks.

Yes, you can. Please see my review for detailed info on using this with the FZ-200, and what to expect.

Hi K.,I have NX1000 and it works perfectly. I'm very happy - takes great pictures even on max zoom, and nice price.Cheers,Ross

Of course it will work well, however with a monopod you're trying to straighten or change different angles. If you want a shot that straight evenly framed the monopod must be actually straight then you have to make sure the two different angles on the XCsource is straight. If angles with no problem it's a great gadget to to have for your equipment collection, I love mine! Hope this helps.

I mounted it on my tripod & it worked out pretty good. I think it will also work with a monopod.
