Gary, would there be any chance of getting a monopod through the bargains section?

The Benro ones shoul;d be available.

Give me a model, and I'll let you know.

Also, Glen, can you remember the other monopods we've been using? What was their website? Mine's in the car, otherwise I'd look it up.

John,

It's in very short supply.

I need to check with Poon everytime soemone wants one. The last order took about four weeks to come through.

*PHEW* I was very lucky that got mine quick enough 8)


Is there any notice or expectation on prices for D200 to go down a step more??


And is Poon interested in stocking up lighting equipments as well? :)

Gary, in the Benro the MC91 n6 seems OK. The Gitzo G1578L also looks good. And the Feisol (as Glen mentioned) CM-1471 seems interesting too.

Maybe I should re-consider if they keep falling over as Greg suggests. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Cheers, Mick :) :) :)

any radio triggers available?
My synch lead keeps falling out, and limits movement.

Bowens, PocketWizard, Quantum, other quality ones?...
