Where to buy a super lousy(super cheap) monopod:sweatsm: ? Any shops to recommend?
 

How cheap is cheap?
I got a Giottos monopod for $70 from Cathay.
I think the price is alright.
Anything below $80 is cheap enough for me, for a monopod that is.
Or maybe you want something cheaper?
 

get from syketang 55 for a manfrotto digi pro not too bad
 

tek goh... the bamboo stick for hanging clothes... saw it to the height u want... even cheaper//.. wahaha :bsmilie:
 

MS Color got one Giottos for $35 IIRC.

super cheap? try boomstick handle. really.

handle - at most $2 (?) from hardware shop. free, if ur mom has one in the storeroom.
3/4" tripod screw - think CP, ruby or TCW got sell. or else, order from US, at most $5 (including shipping).
Epoxy glue - at most $3-4 from hardware shop.

just use the epoxy glue to fix the tripod screw on the flattest end of the broomstick handle and u're good to go. :)

in case anyone thinks i'm making this up, nope. i'm modifying an idea i read on nikonians.org. the other guy used a walking stick.

How much would it cost if the screw screwed up...and ur equipment came tumbling down?
Worth the risk? Even with a cheapo one?
