@rhyskallen, sure you can use a monopod - they give you more flexibility than a traditional tripod, but that comes at the expense of stability. With a fast enough shutter speed, however, this should not be a problem. On the other hand, with the extremely long focal lengths of a digiscoping setup (or if you are doing video), a tripod and a good tripod head may be really important because you really want that extra stability. Hope this helps, Dale
@Kaktus8551, sorry, the wind was blowing, the sea was crashing and I had to just use the microphone on the camera. Unfortunately, once the sound is recorded badly, it stays that way. I have subsequently tried to make sure the sound is better.
what type and model of head do you have on your tripod? i have a jobu and might need a newer head. can you advise?
