Thank you Rick. I too have seen a lot of people struggle in recent years across all sectors of the industry. I keep busy by being versatile or is it because I'm cheap - take your pick:)

Yes, it will work.

No, it will not cause vignetting.

What you won't be able to is zoom in or out and maintain either exposure or focus. You need a par-focal lens with a constant aperture.

Randy, you misunderstand me.

My question is why not use a cheaper monopod with the 501 head. If you're not using the features of the 561/562, why pay the premium?

I agree Charles, if you overexpose even just a little the shot becomes unusable. But if you get it right the shot can look natural. The trick I find is to keep control of the highlights -...

Moving from indoor to outdoor causes problems with humidity rather than heat. Though I agree, two cams is the way to go.

Charles, I wholeheartedly agree that a true artist will make any gauge of media work for them and I also agree skin tones suck on the 7D and there are many other failings.

I have to ask why? And the same goes for Randy above.

Why buy a pan head and use it with this monopod? It seems like a waste of money. The main feature of the 6561/562 is the fluid cartridge in...

Senad, if you are shooting with a 7D or 5D you are doing so to produce a certain look. That look is primarily governed by the size of the sensor and the characteristics of the lens being used.

No Bruce. Don't go with the Velbon. It won't support the weight plus it's a pan and tilt head - you only need tilt with this monopod as it has pan built in.

I'll add to the previous comments; use whatever lens you want, but shoot at a higher ISO, that way you'll have to stop down to maintain correct exposure. Stopping down equals deeper focus.

All camearas make compromises in design and functionality. The bottom line is, you can produce exceptional images with this funny little camera, images you simply can't produce with a camcorder.
