What's the use of monopod and tripod when shooting SLR? What are the advantages of monopod? thank you

First, the role of monopod and tripod in SLR shooting:

The role of monopod and tripod is to stabilize the camera to some extent.

Second, the use of monopod and tripod in SLR shooting:

1, tripod is used for long exposure, and users need longer exposure time if they want to take pictures of night scenes or surging tracks. At this time, if the camera does not shake, they need the help of a tripod.

2, monopod is not suitable for long exposure applications. The significance of monopod is to provide a considerable degree of portability and flexibility, and at the same time reduce the safety shutter speed by about 3 gears.

Third, the advantages of monopod:

1. The flexibility of monopod is more powerful when shooting large and irregular sports such as football matches.

2, shooting wild animals, mountaineering and other occasions that require high portability, some monopods also have the function of trekking poles;

3. Sports competitions, concerts, news reports and other occasions where space is limited and there is no tripod position;

4. It is necessary to capture the moment, but also have certain stability to prevent hand jitter, which requires high flexibility.

Extended data:

1. The first factor in choosing a tripod is stability. If the tripod is too light or the manufacturing process of the connecting parts such as the lock is not good, the whole frame will shake loose, which is far from stabilizing the camera. It is a contradiction to keep the tripod stable and reduce the weight. Photographers who travel frequently can only accept compromise, that is, to maximize the balance between the two.

Many professional photographers have a trick, that is, to increase the weight of the tripod, hanging heavy objects everywhere on the tripod. In order to do this, they put a small bag in the camera bag, filled with stones or sand, and tied it to the lower end of the central column of the tripod. Because the weight is increased at the center of gravity, the effect of reducing tripod shaking can be achieved.

2. When the monopod is used, it will be combined with people's feet to form a tripod. Stand naturally with your feet apart. When you hold the tripod with one hand, its stability is also high. Monopod has unique advantages in portability and flexibility.
