[OM] Re: monopod ?

Ah, only 14 ounces and has 4 sections so collapses down to 19".  Much 
more competitive with the Stony Brook I mentioned earlier than the 
heavier Bogen I use.  Any reason you don't use the 3232 or 3229 
tilt/swivel heads which are made for monopods?  See:

I don't own one of these either but their praises have been sung here 
before and inertia is the only reason I don't own one.
