This is a life and back saver! Not only is my camera out of the way, I don't have to worry about it pulling on my neck and upper back. I use the Spider Camera Holster in conjunction with the SpiderPro Handstrap, My only issuse (a minor one) is that I felt the belt needed belt keepers. Belt Keepers are used to strap the outer belt to a pants belt, highly beneficial to those of a particular body type. I have belt keepers and added those to my set up for added security. I shoot with a D850 with the vertical grip and the EN-EL-18 batteries which is a pretty heavy camera especially when you add the 70-200mm f2.8 lens into the mix. The belt and the holster are very sturdy and adjustable, in order to keep this kind of weight from pulling the belt down without making it too tight I added two belt keepers to strap it to my pants belt. This makes me breathe a little easier, you may not need belt keepers. I have been using a BR strap with the D-ring but the strap allows the camera to bang into my leg, leaving a bruise on heavy walking days.The spider holster securely holds the camera in place and gives you freedom from the traditional camera strap, alleviating all that weight on your neck and back!!

The Spider Pro plate gets in the way of battery/SD card opening on my Nikon Df, so I then purchased Spider Light plate. The small adjustable plate allows me to open both the leather half-case opening and the battery/SD card door (one covers the other), but the camera then hangs lens down when holstered, and therefore isn't as secure. I also wish the mounting screw was longer on both the Pro and Light models, as I'd prefer not to remove the leather half-case.

I’ve recently purchased subject carrying system and upon opening found it to be of excellent quality. The two position security lock holding the camera (Canon 5D Mk II.) is very sturdy and feels very secure. I like the fact that the lock has two positions to insure inadvertent release of the camera is minimized. I have not taken the system to the field yet but anticipate it will work well under most conditions. I like this system because I can eliminate the camera strap which places most to the camera and lens weight on the photographer’s neck. After seeing the product I intend to purchase the Spider lens plate for use with my telephoto lens.

i absolutely love this. easy to adjust, and more comfortable than a strap around the neck. Also got the hand strap from Spider. perfect for taking pics on the go.

I love the fact of caring my camera on my hip and being very secured
