I'm looking for a light but sturdy monopod to carry on my backpack when
hiking. So where should I start looking; what brand (Manfrotto / Bogen,
Gitzo, Velbon, other?) what length, how many sections, what mount? I'd
be
grateful if you could tell me which one you use, how often you use it,
are
you satisfied?

Stefan,
I have gone through a few. I settled on the Bogen/Manfrotto 3018/618
with 3232 swivel head. You do not need a ball head or anything fancy on
the monopod, the 3232 works perfectly for the monopod and has a quick
release. This combination is perfect. The 3016 is also a good choice.
