I recently invented out of necessity a mounting device that allows a camera operator to support the camera on a monopod and adjust slightly to follow shifting actors and the like and still maintain a level horizon. Just $20. I'm trying to gauge the demand for this kind of thing and see if others find it just as useful as I do. It easily mounts to a monopod with a standard 1/4 x 20 camera fixing screw. Eventually, I'll be selling it via eBay and have had talks with some retailers but I'm just getting started. It's patent pending. You can check it out at:

But I'll gladly sell you one from here via the website. I take PayPal.
As a camera operator here in LA myself, I can tell you it's been incredibly useful in saving shots from jarring, shifting actors, and mostly saves your shoulders and arms during long days of shooting. Any budding cinematographer or professional would probably agree.
