They are used for holding a camera steady in places where there isn't
room (or time) to set up a tripod, or where you don't have capacity
to haul a tripod around. Monopods are clearly not self-supporting
like tripods are, but they to a surprising job of keeing a camera more
steady than hand-held. I also use them for raising the camera up to
get a "bird's-eye" shot.
