[Tweeters] monopod and gimbal

[Richard Walker via Tweeters]

Hi All, and Jim Betz,
For those of you with big lenses, I just got a monpod that expends to 73" with a 15 kg capacity and a side mount gimbal (Amazon: Amazon.com : Mono Gimbal Head, Side Saddle Speed/Sports Monopod Tilt Head Arca RRS Dovetail Compatible Ideal for Long Telephoto Lenses : Electronics<https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D6QLKJPR?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details> ) I've only had it out once birding, but so far like it. Very compact compared to the other type of gimbal and it carries over my shoulder well. It made using the 150-600 lens a lot steadier. Something to consider if a tripod might be a bit much to carry with you.
