Velbon UP-400DX 4-section video monopod with fluid tilting head, QB-4L quick-release plate, reaches 66.5" at just 1.65 lb.

The Velbon UP-400DX is a lightweight 4-section video monopod engineered for camcorder operators who demand smooth, controlled footage on the go. Extending to a generous 66.5″ maximum height yet folding down to just 22.4″ for easy transport, it weighs only 1.65 lb — making it one of the most portable video support solutions in Velbon’s lineup.

At its core, the UP-400DX features an integrated tilting video head with a -45° to 90° tilt range and built-in fluid resistance, paired with the QB-4L quick-release plate and video pin for rock-solid camcorder mounting. An adjustable shoulder strap, retractable ground spike, and three quick-lever flip locks complete a package built for videographers who shoot fast and move faster.

- **QB-4L Quick Release Plate with Video Pin:** Longer than standard still-camera plates, the QB-4L adds a video pin for extra camcorder stability and fast, secure attachment.

- **4-Section Compact Design:** Extends to 66.5″ for comfortable shooting height and collapses to just 22.4″ for effortless transport and storage.

- **Ultralight at 1.65 lb:** Supports up to 3.3 lb of gear while keeping the monopod itself featherlight, reducing fatigue during extended shooting sessions.

- **Three Quick-Lever Flip Locks:** Instantly release and secure all leg sections for rapid height adjustments, even while wearing gloves.

- **Rubber Foot with Retractable Spike:** The rubber foot delivers grip on smooth surfaces, while the retractable ground spike bites into soft or uneven terrain for added stability.
