I am satisfied with my holster purchase. I also purchased the hand strap. I personally would like to see the strap not interfere with the battery compartment if they would make a new strap. Other then this I am pleased with the purchase.
There are a lot of things to love about this combination mount. I bought two of these mounts so that I could have a single mounting plate that fits both my Manfrotto RC2 and my Swiss-Arca bases.
While it works great in a Swiss-Arca base, I find that it is scary loose in my Manfrotto ball head mount. I don't think it will fall out, but it is not a secure fit because it is not wide enough for Manfrotto RC2, and it wobbles when the camera is adjusted.
One of the main features I love is that the AS-RC2 is unique as it does fasten to the center of the Spider mounting plate and used two screws instead of one. The AS-RC2 mount is not offset when mounted on the Spider base as like my Manfrotto mounts are.
I purchased a SpiderPro hand strap v1 a while back and I was really happy with it. It actually performs better than the Nikon hand strap I purchased and was significantly less expensive. So, when v2 came out, I simply had to get one.
As usual, the product was delivered quickly (I also own a Spider holster.) and I was excited to put it on my D850. It has the same quality feel of the v1 hand strap but, I must say, the v2 did not fit my hand as well as the v1. After a few adjustments, the strap now feels and fits like a glove.
I highly recommend Spider products to all photographers, amateur and pro alike.
This Holster pairs great with the spider hand strap. The holster fits securely around my waist and does not move. I have not been able to use it too much as I purchased this in time for wedding season and well...
Covid-19 has stopped all of this. But I have used it around my property as I walk the hills and creek beds. It seems to work nicely. I am ready to get back to work.
Got it for my wife and she loves it. Easy to fit and camera slides right in.
I received my belt earlier than expected which was great! I did have to look on Youtube for a tutorial of how to attach the piece to my camera, but it was a video made by Spider, and was super easy. I absolutely love it! Is wonderful to be able to place it on the belt and have my hands free! Goodbye neck pain from a strap, and the locking feature keeps me from worrying about it falling off. I had a friend say to be careful about it coming unscrewed from the camera, but in my opinion I can't see how that would happen. Solid product!
Wish I had this for the last two years. So convenient and allows me to work more efficiently
For every time what ever sport gets in your way try the spiders holster and you wonder why you hadn’t got one earlier. I had this on my hip 1 min and I didn’t want to take it off. Quality build. Super comfortable, amazing performance. Spiders customer service was amazing and I would truly recommend this product to any pro looking to spend your time being creative a opposed to worry about your gear. Thanks for an amazing product

This kit is so versatile. It can be used on the straps of a backpack to hold a DSLR, irrorless or GoPro or the camera clip can be removed easily and used on a belt. This is one of the main reasons I bought it. In addition, The camera attachment bracket is perfect for the mirrorless camera I am planning on buying soon.
Another great product from Spider!
I purchased this holster after dealing with incredible back pain and headaches from camera straps. This is AMAZING. I shot an eight hour wedding on Friday and it was so easy. It made a huge difference with me physically which is worth all the money right there.
It's the perfect bracket for the Nikon z6. The delivery was very fast and good. I like this. I trust Spider Company.
Love the new Spider strap, like the way it wraps my hand, seems more firmly wrapped then the way my old one did, especially like the snaps. Seems like a nice snapping system, long as they don’t begin to open with age .
You say in the specs that the
Spider Light is not compatible with Olympus Mark ii. Could you specify whether it IS compatible with Olympus OMD-EM5 Mark iii? Thank you.
I have been using SpiderPro since I knew the company in 2016. It is sturdy and comfortable. The camera feel really secure in my arm. Easy to adjust! I would keep buying this until I stop being a photographer! This is the second one I have bought for my DLSR (the first one is done after years of use!). I highly recommend it!
Great support with all of my cameras. Even works with all my primes and bigger pro bodies! Awesome value with the included card holder and hand strap. Great introduction to the Spider Holster system, looking forward to adding to my collection. Definitely worth a try!
I'm using my SpiderPro with my new Nikon Z50.
It's extremely comfortable,and along with the wrist strap,very secure.
Just like my new camera,there is a learning curve to using the hand strap.
I lost some of the freedom that my Blackrapid hand strap gave me,but the
SpiderPro really connects my camera to my hand without any loss of hand movement.
Assembling instructions for this strap and improvements for secure handling can't be beat. Well done.
