I have a neotec monopod and while it is a great bit of kit, and very quick to use, as Postacrd says - it is heavy.
For a tripod I have a Velbon carbon fibre - I looked at the Manfrotto 055 range and concluded that their carbon offering was over priced compared to the Velbon - the Velbon CF was about the same price as the Manfrotto standard and sooooo much lighter. A tripod that stays at home because its too heavy to lug around is not a good investment
