[Lluis Ripoll]

Jim,

I’ve never used these, but I ask me why not use a Monopod?

At 89, I'm not as stable on my feet as I once was, and my eyesight is undergoing some changes.  To compensate, I recently acquired a used Olympus ZD 50-200 Autofocus lens and a used Leica-R shoulder stock (thanks, Doug Herr).  Currently, these are paired with my original Olympus E-510 4/3 camera body.  I have been quite pleased with the results I have managed to achieve with this setup.  Here are a couple of photos of the kit.
