Best tripod for Canon R7 with Canon RF 200-800mm lens attached

[LoveWeims]

I have a Canon EOS R7 and have very recently received an RF 200mm-800mm lens which is right heavy.  I do wildlife photography (where a tripod is useful when I know the habits of my creatures) and am looking for advice on a decent tripod with a quick release attachment so I more efficiently attached and disconnect the camera without the screw it on drill.

It would also be nice to have a matching monopod compatible with the attachment device for the camera/tripod as I originally thought a monopod would give me the extra help with a bit more flexibility.

I am still learning the easiest way to adjust the telephoto, hold the camera, AND keep the subject in my sights.

I am using a Benro aluminum monopod, which cost under $100 USD.  The carbon fiber version is lighter by a small amount.  I use a Kirk MPA-2 tilt head.  It has a very good friction control.  My Sigma 150-600mm doesn’t flop around.

 The tripod is an older Benro Series 3 75mm combination tripod.  I can install a 75mm flat plate, a 75mm center column, or a 75mm bowl as seen in the photo. 

B&H has a house brand, Robus, that I suspect is made by Induro/Benro.  When my model was discontinued, nearly identical products appeared under the Robus brand name.  It’s a tree trunk.

The ball head is a Really Right Stuff BH-55.  This head has zero backlash.  What’s that?

Have you ever tried to photograph the Moon, only to have the lens shift as you tighten it down?  That’s backlash.  This head stays exactly where I point it, even with a few pounds of weight that is leaning off center.

Thank you!  Benro appears to be a well-regarded brand.  I will call a dealer and ask questions about heads on monos for  long lenses v tripods.  Hoping for interchangeability.  My husband informed me he built gimbals (who knew?!!) so we will be jointly researching those v gear heads

Love asking the community.  So many great ideas to research
