Here's my review of the Manfrotto 561BHDV Monopod/Tripod. Yes, it's sort of a monopod and tripod at the same time. It has a super-smooth fluid head for tilting, and it swivels smoothly left and right from a ball joint on the bottom in the leg housing. Really nice setup that allows you to mount any kind of DSLR or Camcorder - but I'm using it with my GoPro Hero3 in this example, to show how you can have a very light, but strong and smooth stable support for your hiking and nature videos. I include some outside shots as examples of how the head works.
