Always to go against the grain, I do not carry a tripod with me to GFM. Though I have been used as a tripod sherpa.

When we were at GFM last year, Debbie commented on that. You could tell it was a photo weekend not byt he quality of the cameras but by the fact that everyone had a tripod/monopod.

This surprises you? Snapshooters don't use things like tripods, monopods, or big flash brackets. Once you do, you become interesting.

Hi Tripod/Monopad Users :-)
what really amazes me: If I carry only camera body and lens and flash - nearly nobody cares
after a
minute beside some first glances Mounting a monopod changes that behavior completely, people really
start
staring at my camera equipment. I believed they should notice that is an old analog camera, but they
keep
considering my as a pro working for the press (and asking for that) just because of that monopad :-)
a Monpod as well as a tripod seem to impress people a lot!
happy Pentaxing Markus
Thanks for the feedback. FYI, I finally ordered the 3249 monopod
with
the 484rc2 quick release Ballhead.
