I assume that HOLD does the same as exposure lock in the -5n, which is

A new dog learns an old trick (grin). I wonder why us old dogs have not

I am using a normal medium ball head. But if you intend to use it for

I have great results with a Manfrotto joystick head (222) on my Manfrotto
compact monopod (479-4/LA24). The joystick does not produce gentle & smooth
movement, but gives all of the motion required. If you need long exposure
times, you can get better support by angling the monopod towards you - pl

Well, I'm in between you two. I use a head on the monopod for two
purposes - one is quick release, the other is for vertical shots with
lenses that do not have a tripod mount.
The head I use is very minimalist - Manfrotto 3229 - just swivels one
way. So it functions almost like no head unless on
