My 2nd shooter films with it all day. It has a 501/503 compatible head so they can go from monopod to tripod easily. I wouldn't have someone shoot for me without it.

Easy, producing a wider variety of them and posting them on our blog is exactly what changed. In the past I wasn't sure about them, but now I'm 100% converted. They are, in my opinion, the single...
