I need to invest in a monopod as well

m4a1mustang 05-29-2012 12:48 PM

I'm about to order one. Not spending a **** ton. Found that one made by Canon gets good reviews. Willing to try.

I was always disappointed in mono and tripods until I spent a decent amount on my Manfrotto/Bogen setup.

Let us know how the Canon mono works. What model is it?

m4a1mustang 05-29-2012 01:20 PM

It's the model 500. I'll let you know how it goes.

I have a $100-150 range SLIK tripod that I am very happy with.

I am going to try to get that Sigma 50-500 f4-6.3 for my birthday (September). :yum:

....oh and nice work Steve.

Get one of the sprayers to spray the dust off. No risk if youre not wiping the sensor with something..

I'm not overly thrilled with the quality of these shots (first time shooting anything of this sort. Learning on the fly), but I wanted to share because they crack me up every time I look at them.

This was at a mud run a couple of weeks ago. The station that the people were at had three hay rolls that they had to jump onto. They were a decent distance apart and the second photo shows the results for this poor (snicker) girl.

And just for the obvious reasons...

Here is the monopod I am using -- very sturdy and handy.

Professional 3-Section Monopod 681B - Monopods | Manfrotto

I have the exact same one. No complaints.

Shot using my monopod. Its a Manfrotto and I think the model is the 680B but maybe thats just a number they slapped on their and has nothing to do with the model. Bought it a year or 2 ago and love it

I was thinking about getting a monopod, but decided to just get a lightweight tripod instead. I have a Vanguard Alta with a ball head.

Cool beans. I've used a SLIK tripod that felt nice. Unfortunately I've had 2 friends with quality issues on the SLIKs. I'm assuming yours is holding up?
