[QUOTE="Rob Timmerman, post: 124125, member: 172"] Re: Mirrorless cameras - monopod recommendations? What's the intended use of the monopod? While they are useful for long heavy lenses, I haven't found them all that useful otherwise. For available darkness photography, I've found that a combination of reasonably high ISO (800+ should be perfectly acceptable on that body), fast lenses (unfortunately not that many options for the NEX system), and good shooting posture works just as well. Modern image stabilization also can help dramatically. Also bracing yourself and the camera against something (I do carry a beanbag for that purpose). I've tried monopods, but I haven't used the one I own in years. [/QUOTE]
