Jon's Side Saddle Mount.

Hi Jon. This makes perfect sense to me. I used to carry & support my camera
with big lens this way: what you call side-saddle via a ballhead on a monopod.
Extremely steady, but I never gave it much thought!

Could you email me the additional pictures you mentioned? Or post them on
Astromart perhaps?

Wonder how well this would work with ultra-lightweight tripod & head... I'm
going to look for a magnesium head to try out on my (in the mail) CF tripod.
