Yes, the lighter weight cheap 15x70 binoculars like the Revelation would work on a monopod, but in field use they are likely to go out of collimation if not so when bought.

You would be better off with a Canon 10x30 IS binocular during the daytime.

I have little problem hand holding the Revelation 15x70 for astro use.

A scope though is I think the better option.
