Is there such thing as a tall mans monopod?

[Roy G. Biv]

I'm 6'6".. Is there a monopod out there that I can comfortably use? I never used a monopod before, if it's too short I'm probably never going to use it. Thanks!

To be honest anything about 180cm in height will be fine, i'm 6'8" and i have a cheapy Giottos mv 818 which extends to 180 which is fine. I find i never use it fully extended anyway, all you need is one that reaches ur adams apple, as the height of the body of the camera will make the up rest.Just remeber you dont want to be standing on tip toe to look through the viewfinder.

Hope this helps.

The Gitso 3550 is a bit under 2 metres without a head (74 inches). Add a Leitz tall ball head and you have another 6 inches (a really fine head for monopod use especially) if you really need it.
