Hi everybody... how's it going? Just to say "thanks" to all of your opinions on monopods & long lenses... hopefully I'll be posting some pictures soon...
I just got it yesterday... YAY! Woohoo! decided to get a good one... so got this Gitzo Mountaineer MK2... so far, I'm still learning how to use it.. but as far as I've seen... it seems like a good monopod is WAY better than a cheapo tripod... :) Of course it's not enough for slow shutter speeds... but I think it's more stable than my jello tripod (at least with the 500mm lens) There's no head on it... but for now, seems like I won't need one... seems to be "easy" to lean back and forth in order to adjust the camera/lens up and down... The mosquitoes are driving me crazy here, so it's quite frustrating to get out on the land... but... let's see! Thanks again for yr time, have a good one!
