Don't own a monopod or do macro, but I would imagine that using one for macro would be nigh on impossible given the tiny depth of fields involved.

i'd guess tripod or handheld depending on subject.

Tripod>Monopod>Handheld. Now if the bloody thing would just stay still

I'm a big fan of the monopod and hardly ever use a tripod, but for macro; I'd say a tripod every time.

for macro work i use a tripod everytime.

for other stuff i tend to stick to my monopod!

check my signature for some more debate on the subject!!

Tripod if it's not going to move on me. Otherwise handheld.

It would depend what you are shooting in macro. Insectsand moving things, there is no way a tripod would work, either hand held or monopod, for static things like pound coins etc. then a tripod would be best.

For static Macro - Tripod and cable release if you have one
