313: SpiderPro Tether Bail Accessory Kit

I like the tether; but it needs to have a swivel incorporated into it.

Accessories that would not be missed in your Spider Camera Holster, a lifesaver and this will save your investments and put yourself confidence and safe!

When working events, I use a think tank belt system with two spider pro holsters, one holds a Nikon D850 with a 24-120 lens, the other has a Nikon Z6 with an 80-400 lens. The lens mounts directly to the spider holster using a Spider Pro Lens Collar Plate. This system works really well except when I want to put a 16-35 on the Z6. I've tried many things but the tether bail works the best. I can attach it to a think tank camera support strap that is attached to my belt harness. This makes it super easy to switch cameras or just put the Z6 down without having to put the 80-400 back on. Works perfectly!

Tether Bail Accessory Kit

This accessory for the Spider web Tether is a great idea but it’s so poor in execution as to be worthless. My first clue was the hand-written note that came with the kit: ’Do night overtighten screw.” It would have been better to say ‘do night tighten screw at all’ as it stripped out the threads with virtually no effort at all (I’m talking about finger-tip pressure only.) Better to use the tether clip that comes with the Spider Web Tether than to use this. I ended up replacing my base plate (stripped threads) and sending this kit back for a refund.
