I am glad that it works well for you. But I have never quite understood monopods. When I am seated, I can make sharped images using my knee pod technique (coming soon) as there is much less side to side movement than with a monopod. A monopod might help a bit when standing with the 200-400 but I’d rather enjoy the stability of a tripod there…

About hand held shooting. You will be surprised how much longer you can take pictures whithout getting tired when you use a monopod Lift it an inch when photographing, put it on the ground when your not.
Greetings Marius
