Right, I'm wanting to buy a monopod for my sports (mainly Rugby) photography. Currently I am using my 400D and cheap / relatively light 70-300 Tamron.
So my understanding is a monopod usually just comes with a screw fixing with the standard thread that usually fixes to the bottom of the camera or lens collar. Therefore if you want to shoot portrait you rotate the camera in the collar.
So have I understood this correctly? My 70-300 doesn't have a collar. Not sure I can even fix one on. So can I get one for my lens? Or will I just be shooting in Landscape if I get a monopod?
Thanks in advance
