Hi!
I am planning to do quite a bit of backpacking throughtout asia over the next year (teacher in Korea
I recently posted asking how to carry my gear and I believe the best way to do so is to carry my gear on my frontside using one of the Lowepro beltpacks.
The next question is drumroll...monopod or tripod?
I am a landscape photograher and had originally thought of buying the Manfrotto 682B because it seems the best of both worlds.
However, I plan on doing more than posting my shots on facebook..namely, selling them.
Having said that, would you yourself go with a monopod or invest in a carbon fiber tripod in order to ensure that those photos are tacksharp. $ isn't so much of an issue here..finding the best valued, lightweight, compact and sturdy tripod is. I was reading Gitzo make some solid candidates.
I'm actually hiking Mt. Fugi August 1st to shoot the golden sunrise. I know it can be windy up there. What do you think?
Thanks~
Colin
