I’m actually a bit embarrassed how much I’ve been enjoying the spider holster products. Initially used the mirrorless plate and fell in love with the convenience and ergonomics. It holds the camera at a much more natural angle than the plate locking carriers which I had tried first. I use the backpack setup on both backpacks and as a waist carry rig. The elastic and Velcro strap on the backpack version keeps the lens firmly locked onto your leg. After adding a cage to my camera I switched to this plate. It does what it’s supposed to perfectly. I’ve probably spent enough on Spider products that I could have purchased a new 3rd party lens instead but I don’t regret it at all. I find myself carrying the camera more than I did in the past. I used to worry about bringing my camera on hikes on a neck strap because I have bounced a swinging camera on a rock I was scrambling over. Now I’m totally comfortable bringing it on tough terrain knowing it’s securely attached.
Wonderful way to keep the camera secure and still quickly available
This thing is a game changer. Makes taking pictures much easier.
Have it for my Z8 and it works great. I like how it sits on the body and having the option to easily mount it to my tripod as is… is handy
I ordered the dual even though I only carry one camera, but my backup is in my backpack on my other side. I carry my off-camera flash, an AD200. No back pain after long days. My only complaint is that I didn’t do this sooner.
I was using a dual harness, but kept seeing more photographers and videographers using the spider holster. The first day I used it, my neck and back thanked me. I didn't have a splitting headache 3 hours into a wedding day. It took me a few adjustments to get it sat just right on my hips so it didn't hurt those, but I love the ease of it and it has zero strain on my body.
This holster has saved my back and been amazing! It frees up my hands to help my clients and I'm no longer getting bruises all over my legs when I use my harness. If you're on the fence, go for it. You won't regret buying this holster!

Love my Spider belt. If I had anything to "complain" about, it would be the instructions on how to add it. There were 2 pamphlets included, one with very minimal instructions & an another with a QR code. It wasn't until I had completely disassembled my belt to put it on the second harness that I found the other set of instructions with the QR code.
Terrific product - simply love it! Spares my arm and hand muscles superbly, allowing me to go walk-about all day with my Nikon Z9 and Z600 mm f6.3 VR prime lens with the weight hanging off my Spider Holster waist belt. I baulked at the price initially, but this buy has been well worth it. No regrets with this purchase! Would heartily recommend it!!
This has been a game changer, I feel like a lot of us female photographers have most of our strength in our legs, no more back/ shoulder pain! I also love that it keeps the cameras closer to my body way less swinging.
I have tried out my holster during 2 sessions now. It is the best investment, the weight off my neck and shoulders is phenomenal and the increased range of movement I now have is just wonderful. Definitely worth the investment and cannot wait to test out on my next big wedding day.
The Spider Pro belt and clip rig for my mirrorless Nikon Z camera and the lens foot clip for the Z600mm f6.3 VR lens has been a great buy. I’ve tried wearing it with gear attached and it’s been a revelation as to how easy it has been to lug my gear around…. hoping to field test it in a few days. I felt the product was a tad overpriced, but hey, it does what it says on the tin!!
I don’t have to deal with back pain anymore
I had the spider single holster for over 10 years. Great quality, even after 10 years of very frequent use. The dual system seems just as high quality. Very comfortable wearing two full frame cameras with big lenses. Thank you for saving the back of many photographers like myself! Very happy with my purchase.
I bought the SpiderPro Pro Pin (1/4"-20 Mount) for my OSMO Pocket 3. It does exactly what I purchased it for. It’s made well but for its size its over priced. Really think it could be cheaper in my opinion. Rating it at 3 stars because of Price.
perfect when you feel like it’s time to have two holsters
Mounted it to the bottom of my smallrig c70 bottom plate, works perfect. Now I can holster my C70 when im doing handheld
As someone who struggles with back pain, I was advised to purchase the dual holder for my next wedding, and I can honestly say it was a game changer for me! I had a 12 hour day and zero back pain after! If you’re thinking about purchasing! Do it!
great product! more needs to be done to show case the ease of use of this system versus the competition!
