I have felt tempted to buy the automatic monopod 334B and the 234RC tilt head (or I could use my 141RC), because of the quick action option, for nature photography. It's rather expensive, though. Appr. 100 USD here (excl head). The Manfrotto monopod page is here: http://www.manfrotto.com/product/itemlist.php3?manufid=1§ionid=14

The only problem is that the tripod legs clank inside the body when I use it as a walking stick (and who doesn't?). It gets annoying and attracts too much attention. I bought the rubber spike and carry the tripod legs in my cam. bag. I use the 484RC2 ball head with great success. It's strong enough to hold up my Sigma 135-400mm (with the tripod legs attached). Hope this helps in some way. Hasta la Vista, Alejandro > Hey, > > I know we've had the monopod discussion before, but two questions: > > 1.
