I have been researching and shopping around for 2 days trying to decide on a Monopod and Head to buy. I don't want to spend a ton of money on a monopod, because I will only be using it for sporting events. At the end of my search, this is what I have in my shopping cart...
Manfrotto 679B Three Section Monopod, Black Anodized ($49.25)
&
Manfrotto Mini Ball Head 494 with RC2 Rapid Connect Plate, Maximum Load: 8.8 lbs/ 4 kg ($68.49)
Just to see this in black and white - will any head that I buy also work on a Manfrotto tripod? I don't have a Manfrotto tripod yet but I plan to buy one in a few months, and I want to make sure the head will be compatible with both. (I do have a tripod - it's just a crappy one)
I will be using my D7000 with 80-200 lens. I'm not sure of the total weight but it's pretty dang heavy to me. I am 5'9 and all of 135 lbs.
Any input and recommendations will be greatly appreciated! I feel like I come to you guys before I buy anything now!
