Best Tripod around $100

There is no difference. It is the same post "quoted".
i meant what makes the proline a "monopod with three legs" and the manfrotto's not?

Because, unless you are very short, you will have to extend the center column to reach the height most people would need.

"Maximum operating height: 62” with center column extended"

As soon as you start extending the center column, you immediately start seriously effecting stability.
 
gotcha. i never use the extender, so i never thought of it as part of the equation.
