Best Answer

A camera tripod is used to balance the camera by creating a sturdy foundation of three legs. Tripods are efficient because they allow you to set timers and have a perfect picture taken with nobody standing behind the camera.

A camera monopod is a long pole used to hold cameras or video cameras. It is used to keep the camera enabling the photographer to take still shots and use a slower shutter speed. It also reduces shaking when videotaping.
