I was at a car show today and saw a fellow using a monopod. This looked like a
terrific idea to me since the tripod is so cumbersome to carry and use for
random photos. I did an Internet search and came up with dozens and dozens of
them with wide ranging prices. Since I'm just a hobby photographer with a
limited budget I don't want to spend more than necessary. I'd appreciate some
guidance on the best one to get for the money and hope someone can help.

Thanks.
