Currently looking for new tripod and monopod with quick release head. I would like to have light and small size, so I can carry around.


At moment I am using MANFROTTO 725B (which good size for me), but cannot handle the weight and not stable enough. Gear I am using now:


Body: Canon 5D Mark II, Canon 500D (both with battery grips)


Lens: Canon 16-35 f2.8 L USM II, 17-40 f4 L USM, 24-70 f2.8 L USM, 24-105 f4 L IS USM, 70-200 f4 L IS USM, 70-200 f2.8 L IS USM and 50 f1.8 II (in future may looking to buy 200 f2 L IS USM)


Flash: 580EX II, 270EX


Normally I shot landscape, people, wildlife, bird and sport


Interest in Gitzo or other similar quality


Thanks !
