Looking at getting a monopod, for my sigma 150-500mm when birding. Just struggle to hold the weight steady.
Really want a ball head and able to go up to eye level, so 5 feet. Do I need anything special for 3kg of kit or am I free to go cheap? Obviously don't want to risk my equipment but budget is perhaps £50. It's whether that'll do or if I have to wait and spend a lot more. Don't mind if I need to look at used.
Just have no clue on monopods! I find my tripod a hassle, hoping a monopod will seem less so.
