my mate gave me a £200 pair of Canon binoculars as well which is nice.

Binoculars are fucking great
I bought a modest set last year in Skye, and they are so bright and crystal clear to look through, a pure joy. If you can get a monoped with an attachment for the binoculars, you are onto a winner. Bracing them against an object isn't always convenient, plus it is well handy for the camera, in fact, shouldn't it BE for the camera and HANDY for the binoculeers.

that's not a bad idea
recommend a mono-ped, or one of those gorilla tripod things?

Plus you could use it as a handy weapon to bludgeon any troublemakers with.

Manfrotto are the 'big dicks' in the tripod/monopod world, so if you have some moolah to burn then check out what they have on offer.

However, depending on what you are doing, a tripod may not be a bad idea either. i swear by mine. You can set up and just leave it be and wander about, skin up etc, very useful if you have an SLR with a telephoto lens.

The handy added bonus is you can use it to film homemade pr0n.
