After buying a 300mm f4 and 80-200mm f2.8, I found that the limitation to lens sharpness is camera shake if not shot at high shutter speed. As both lenses are heavy, hand held isn't always an option. With the monopod, there are better chance to shoot sharp. Built very strong, with no flex at the joint, you can be assure that it will bear the weight of lens and camera easily. A must have for heavy/long focal lenses.
