I shoot with a Sony a1 and a Sony 600mm f4, combined costing over $19,500.00. And this monopod head holds my camera like it doesn't weigh a dime. Beautiful balance and function. You get what you pay for.

He is using a 70-200 - not a 600 f4 ...

Another option for a head - I use the slightly larger version of this - but I have bigger lenses that I use .....of course I REMOVE the long handle ....

I like this Leofoto because it is high quality and collapses to be short. More important is the head you will use - I like small video fluid heads on monopods today but most have to be adapted to accept Arca/Swiss plates.

Yes, it is POSSIBLE to NOT use a head on a monopod - especially with a 70-200 ....but just not recommended for serious work ....

Does anyone have experience with this lens? I’m thinking about buying it. How does it perform with extenders?

I don’t really need it, I have the 300 2.8, 400 f4 DO, and 500 f4. I just think it might be a great lens for a walk thru the zoo, or for football while standing in the end zone. Yep, I collect lenses.


It is a BIG HEAVY lens - check the weight and size before you buy ! I saw somebody who had one - I thought it was a 600 f4 !
I have seen the Imatest numbers - they are not impressive - especially for the cost - if that matters. It does seem to get good reviews tho .....The size/weight make it impractical for use other than on a tripod !
I checked my 2013 edition of Canon "EF Lens Work III" - and it is not in there......8-(

Selling some DSLR gear. Took my D500 in hand and snapped a few pics. Great feeling and sound. That mirror moving up and down brings back fond memories.

Anyone else?


Yes, full frame @10 FPS sounds like a machine gun ! Still using the 1D mark IV

Sony RX10ii (fixed Carl Zeiss lens, f2.8, 24-200). V iii and iv have a 20 x zoom - for my photography, not so good, and bulkier.
