Hey, if you\'re happy with it, more power to you. Looks pretty shaky to me. How many knobs must be turned to operate this? Let\'s see, ball head = one. Your contraption = at least 3. You could also wrap a Gorillapod around the Wimberley as well and have the ultimate cheapo rig!
How many heads do you need in the field for your solution. Let\'s see, one ballhead and a full Wimberley that you have to change every time you go from tele to a smaller lens.
And you belive a full Wimberley Head or a RRS monopod head is shaky If they can hold my 800 lens without any problem. Then I belive a wide angle will be ok also
What I think would be shaky is the monopod attached to the Wimberley. Either one by itself is rock solid. That\'s why I use a Wimberley head. I\'m no good with a monopod so I don\'t own the RRS one. It boils down to you like what you like and I like what I like. We will probably never agree on this piece of equipment.
