I use the MagMount on my Benro monopod with great results. The ballhead is compact but secures the DSLR well, but I must use the safety clip. I am very happy with my purchase.

This head works great with my Canon Rebel XT on a Bogen / Manfrotto 790B monopod. Nice and light, yet the magnetic hold is very secure. No problems with the camera coming off, even without the safety clip. It definitely increases the usability of a monopod. See the VersaMount which is sometimes bundled with the MagMount.

MagMount Optical Device Mounting System by Trek-Tech
MagMount TrekPod , is an industry-first magnetic quick-release camera and optical device mounting system originally developed for use on the but also available as a separate accessory.
It provides for the instant attachment of almost any camera, spotting scope, or other device that is mounted via the industry standard 1/4-20 threaded mounting system in use on most tripods, monopods and window mount systems available today.
The MagMount system, with its light- and heavy-force Mag Adaptors, provides for the instant exchange of devices on your tripod, monopod, TrekPod or window mount. You can interchange cameras, spotting scopes, binoculars and range finders in seconds, and be ready to travel again in a few seconds more. For heavier devices, or for facilitating moving or carrying your support system with a device attached, you can secure a device to MagMount with the integrated Safety Clip, which docks in the base of the MagMount when not in use.
MagMount provides unprecedented levels of flexibility and functionality for outdoor photographers, birders, and hunters. Many additional uses have also been suggested, such as portable lighting, microphone mounting, etc.
Once you've used a MagMount in conjunction with any of your optics stabilization tools, you'll wonder why no one thought of this concept before!
