[QUOTE="480sparky, post: 610653, member: 15805"] The feet on monopods aren't rigid. They have 'give' to them. This is because they're designed for [B]video [/B]cameras, and allow the monopod to turn and tilt. Many better units have fluid resistance built into them for smoother video movements. I doubt a monopod will gain anything over one without them by making the feet rigid. Don't assume you cannot improve your hand-holding techniques. I think you can surprise yourself. In the meantime, shoot with a higher ISO, and deal with noise in post. [/QUOTE]
