I would not call it light at all. I use it for sports photography with my Canon 7d Mark II with a EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II. It works great and allows me to go from standing to sitting very quickly at track and field events.
This is an update as of 4/11/19. I still think this is a great monopod. The camera support needs have increased as it is now supporting an old 300mm EFL prime lens. It does not slip. Spend the money and get a good one.
