The latest trend, I’ve noticed, is people taking group Selfies using a device called a Monopod. This, simply put, is a stick you mount to your smartphone.  You control the shutter button with a Bluetooth remote control.

This is perfect while alone (so you don’t have to bother asking anyone) or if you are in a large group (and you certainly want everyone’s face…and perhaps a background)!

The key to a quality Monopod is that it’s compact.  Also, being lightweight, having a long extension, and a high maximum load are things to consider before purchasing.

According to ratings and sales, these are five top performers.
