That's a fairly light setup that doesn't require a huge support. Something like a Leophoto carbon monopod is plenty to support that combo. There are other similar brands but FWIW, I've used a couple of Leophoto products and like their build quality. Here's a link to their most popular monopods: https://leofoto.com/products_detail.php?id=163Suggestions for monopod for Nikon d7500 and Nikon 200-500mm lens without breaking bank
I use a Manfrotto Element 5-section aluminum monopod for my D7500 or Z6 with Nikkor 200-500mm lens. Cost is about Ca$80.00. On top of that I have a Jobu Junior 3 Deluxe aluminum gimbal head. Both monopod and gimbal are rated for >12 kg. Price of gimbal ranges around Ca$400. Benro has a gimbal for around Ca$385. If the gimbal is too pricey then consider a lower cost ball head. Remember, though, that balancing such a rig on a ball head is not easy.Suggestions for monopod for Nikon d7500 and Nikon 200-500mm lens without breaking bank
