That swivel works great on a monopod. I find ball heads very awkward on a
monopod as there are too many degrees of freedom.  With large lenses Bogen's
big lens cradle works well too. /jmac

I still think this is one of the most rational articles on buying a
monopod. I ended up with a Manfrotto monopod and the swivel. Works
great.
