        Comments about Mountainsmith Trekker FX Monopod Trekking Pole:

        Just some initial impressions concerning the Mountainsmith trekking poles. Although have not seriously "field tested" them yet, I was initially impressed with their rather light weight and good quality. Whereas they spec out at 14 oz., the four I purchased averaged 11 oz (10.9 to 11.1). Also, they do have shock absorbing capability - a spring is mounted in the upper most section. Lastly, maximum carry capacity for the camera mount is stated at 3 lbs. Including a battery grip and 18-55 zoom lens, my Canon 450D weighs in at 2 lb. 9 oz. and feels quite solid when mounted on the pole. Overall I'm very impressed with the poles and can't wait for some field testing. At [$] per pole, I think they are a very good value.
