  • @MrSeangeeee, Yes a Go Pro can be mounted. You will first have to buy the tripod mount in order to attach it to the plastic housing of the Go Pro. It costs about $7.00 from Amazon.

  • Yes, I do use VR while on the monopod. With today's modern advances in vibration reduction, it works great.

  • I paid around $300 to $350 for the Gitzo Carbon fiber.

  • I think I could shoot at about an 1/8 of a second if need be. I never tried to see how slow I could get - maybe I'll give it a try.

  • I'm working on it. Do you have a topic that you would like to know more about?

  • Glad you like it.

  • I love the Video. Can you please get more videos like this, like Wildlife photography. Thanks.

  • @tv510 do you know if GoPro cameras can be mounted on monopods?

  • I do mostly hand-held landscapes and nature shots with a Nikon D7000 and kit lenses. I want the best results I can get with this gear I can afford. A monopod sounds like it might help me. If the lens has VR, do you leave VR on when using the monopod?

    This is a great video, btw. I subscribed to your channel because of it.

  • so how much was the mono pod you bought?

  • Nice! What would you say is the max exposure you can get with a monopod without inducing camera shake with say a 50mm lens as an example? 1/3? 1/10?

  • Thanks for the tips, much appreciated!
