Here is the question I would like some help with: I'm looking to purchase a second tripod, we currently have one designed for a stills camera - the head moves in three directions. What is the advantage of buying a tripod (or head) specifically designed for video cameras? Does it really just need to
Read Full StoryFor those who are going to answer that the tripod has 3 legs and the monopod just one, I know that. I want to know when to use one and when to use the other. Thanks.

I was covering the Dallas Cowboys versus the New York Giants football game at Texas stadium in 1994 when a fight broke out in the end zone just before halftime. I threw my Nikon F2 with a 300mm f/2.8 lens mounted onto a Bogen monopod over my shoulder and grabbed my second body – another F2 fitted with a 50mm lens to shoot the fray. As I began shooting I saw a Cowboys player rush towards me on my left. I thought he was going to hit me because I had stepped into their “territory.” Instead, the player, James Washington, ripped the long lens camera from my arm and began using my camera as a defensive weapon. I immediately turned to shoot photos of him. Stadium security eventually found and returned my camera but the monopod was irreparably damaged (bent) during the melee. A few weeks later I approached Washington to ask if he would sign the monopod. I was planning to donate it to a charity auction. He said, “So you’re the one who cost me a 10000 fine (from the NFL)” His comment was astonishing to me and I replied by reminding him that HE was the one who took MY camera. His reply was to simply turn his back to me. I found this video on YouTube and thought it was worth sharing. I still have that bent monopod and as soon as I can find that photo I shot of him, I’ll post it.

ezvideoguy.com Randy Barnes demontrates an easy and inexpensive way to make more stable videos in the field bu using a simple monopod. These are easy to find in most stores with a decent camera department or camera stores. The colapsable monopod is light weight and easy to carry. special thanks to Jim Hogan who shot the extra scenes with his flip video camera. The only thing I like better than a flip, is 2 flips!
