bought an 8" monitor, an Ikan V8000HD. it sure is nice to stand back and focus!
edit: after a few shots, makes focussing so much easier. with my eyes, a great thing!
edit 2: after many tries now, my keeper rate is so much better. my next mission is to take it outdoors, once i find a bracket so i can attach it to my camera somehow.
the monitor comes with a hot shoe mount, but of course my flash unit occupies it. in the meanwhile, last one:

Shooting it on the SLR and going back to the car to fire up the laptop and send it that way may take up too much time. For a newspaper printed at about 72dpi, a smartphone camera is more than enough.

^^^ That too! Haha..
....except photojournalists do not own their images, so posting on their personal Facebook would violate their terms of employment.

How's that? I've never used a tripod with ball head before and the reviews do look good!

It looks to be a fantastic lens, but the price......
You can buy a Nikon D800 & a 500mm f4 VRII and have change left over to buy a few more lenses...or a Canon 5DmkIII & 500mm f4L IS II and a few lenses, although the new super-telephotos are more expensive than the previous versions from both Nikon & Canon.

D800 + 400mm + crop probably does just as good.

^^^ For image quality, yes, but I think the A77 is a more responsive camera.
