Leofoto MPQ-325C Camouflage carbon monopod

Leofoto MPQ-325C Camouflage carbon monopod when you need it light, quiet, and stable

With the Leofoto MPQ-325C Camouflage carbon monopod you’ll be noticeably more relaxed on the go. It weighs only about 0.50 kg but supports up to 15 kg of gear, so you can confidently use a DSLR or mirrorless camera with a heavy telephoto lens. Especially if you travel a lot, shoot reportages, or stand on the sidelines in a stadium, you’ll quickly notice: this monopod is not just “nice to have”, but a very reliable companion.

Carbon construction for high stability with minimal weight

The MPQ-325C is made of high-quality carbon and combines excellent rigidity with pleasantly low weight. The five leg sections with diameters of 32, 28, 25, 22, and 19 mm ensure that the monopod stands steady even at its full extension of up to 1.65 m and doesn’t immediately start to vibrate as soon as you press the shutter. For travel, sports, reportage, and telephoto photography, this is a very practical combination: compact in your luggage, but surprisingly robust in use.

Comfortable operation and waterproof leg sections

When handling it, you quickly notice that the MPQ-325C is designed for everyday outdoor use. The leg extensions are constructed to be waterproof, which is very helpful in rain, spray, or on wet ground. You need to worry less about moisture getting inside and can focus more on your subject. Adjusting the sections is quick and easy, even when things get a bit hectic, such as during a fast location change or when the scene only stays the way you want it for a few seconds.

Aluminum platform with convertible 1/4"-3/8" stud

On top sits a sturdy platform made of high-quality aluminum, providing a precise base for your tripod head or directly for the camera. The convertible 1/4"- to 3/8"-stud allows you to mount different heads or cameras without major reconfiguration. You can easily switch between a compact ball head, a video head, or a directly mounted camera without having to search for adapters every time. This flexibility is particularly pleasant if you use different setups for mirrorless and DSLR cameras.

Comfortable grip with silicone handle and practical wrist strap

To keep the monopod from slipping out of your hand, a silicone handle (wrap) is integrated, which is comfortable to hold and offers good grip even at colder temperatures or with slightly damp hands. There is also a wrist strap that lets you briefly let go of the monopod without having to set it down immediately. Especially during longer sessions, such as at sporting events or on photo trips, this noticeably relieves you. It may seem inconspicuous, but after a few hours of use you realize how much comfort such a detail provides.

Camouflage design for discreet use in nature and reportage

The camouflage finish is not just a visual gimmick, but particularly interesting for nature and wildlife photography. In situations where reflective or shiny surfaces would be distracting, the MPQ-325C blends much more unobtrusively into the surroundings. Even in reportage photography or sensitive situations where you don’t want to stand out like a walking lighthouse, the subtle camouflage pattern is an advantage. It’s not an invisibility cloak, of course, but it noticeably reduces visual attention.

3/8" UNC internal thread at the foot for accessories and flexible use

At the foot of the monopod there is a 3/8" UNC internal thread that opens up additional options. You can, for example, mount alternative feet, spikes, or small accessories, depending on how and where you are shooting. On slippery surfaces, soft forest floors, or smooth indoor floors, you can adapt the setup so that you always work as stably as possible. This small threaded interface makes the MPQ-325C significantly more versatile than it appears at first glance.

Padded carrying bag for safe transport

A padded carrying bag is included, allowing you to transport the monopod safely. This is especially helpful when traveling, in the car, or on the train, so the tripod doesn’t get scratched between other luggage or snag on something. The bag also makes it easier to store it in a closet or studio when you’re not using the monopod for a while. We’d say: not a spectacular feature, but one you quickly learn to appreciate in everyday use.

Ideal for DSLR, mirrorless cameras, telephoto lenses, and mobile setups

With a maximum load capacity of up to 15 kg, the Leofoto MPQ-325C is suitable for a wide range of camera systems. Whether you’re working with a lightweight mirrorless camera, a classic DSLR, or a setup with a large telephoto lens, the monopod remains stable and reliable. For travel photography, it offers a very good balance of packed size, weight, and load capacity, while in sports and reportage photography it helps you keep longer focal lengths steadier and reduce camera shake without having to lug around a massive tripod.

Compact, mobile, and quick to deploy

Thanks to the five leg sections, the MPQ-325C can be collapsed very compactly, saving a lot of space in your backpack or travel bag. At the same time, it can be extended to working height in just a few simple steps, so you can react spontaneously when a scene suddenly presents itself. Especially on the go, when you don’t want to spend a long time setting up, the monopod plays to its strengths: take it out, extend it, mount the camera, done. No big fuss, just get to work.
