A telescoping monopod system including an image acquisition module having a field of vision, an attachment member configured to contact the image acquisition module, a body housing a processor, a memory, an electromechanical component, and a plurality of shafts. The body contacts the attachment member. The body comprises a control panel.

A system (1) for mounting video/photographic equipment (2) on a support head (3), the system comprising a mounting plate (4) which can be fixed to a lower part of the equipment and a seat (20) which is formed in a body (21) of the head and which can house the plate so that the plate can slide along a longitudinal axis (X). A hook (30) is provided on the head and is arranged to pivot between a first, seat-closing, position in which the plate is retained in the seat and a second, seat-opening, position in which the plate is free to enter or leave the seat along an insertion axis (Z) substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction (X). The head further comprises locking means for locking the plate inside the seat (20) in a desired position on the longitudinal axis, which comprise a pin (35) which is fixed to the hook and can be translated relative thereto, and which is adapted to bear on the body of the head in order to urge the hook into the first position against the plate. The pin (35) comprises an operating appendage (36) projecting from the hook and operable to pivot the hook from the first to the second position.

A cell phone is attached to a pole not normally used to take photos so that it can be used as a selfie stick. The phone holder is attached to a ski or hiking pole with a pivot and split ring clamp. The phone holder nestles around the pole when skiing or hiking so as not to interfere with that activity. The phone holder is rotated into an open position to attach a phone allowing its use as a selfie stick.
