I have a sidekick which I use with my 120-300 F2.8 - and I really like it.
I tried it on a monopod and it is also a joy to use then - much nicer motion than bolting the lens straight on top of the pod, and the gimble makes the tilt action smoother than the manfrotto tilt head ever did.
The problem is I don't want to keep taking my kirk ballhead off my tripod to put on my monopod.
The question - what is the best route to get an arca swiss mount on top of my monopod that will allow me to attach the sidekick only? Ideally a good route with minimal outlay...
(The sideckick requires a mount in vertical format to function)
