Nicama S-VEST Pro Dual shoulder Camera Harness for 1 Camera, Carrying Chest Vest for Canon 6D 5D2 5D3 Nikon D800 Sony A7S A7R Panasonic Olympus DSLR Cameras Climbing Wedding Travel Hiking, for ZOOM H6

It took a bit of adjusting, but the vest is comfortable and works great once you get the proper fit. No more neck pain and numb arm from my camera neck strap! No more camera bouncing or swinging around when I bend over or hike. I still use the losely draped camera neck strap as a precaution in case the camera slips out of my hands while I'm using it.

This camera harness works great. Holds the camera securely close to the body while hiking in the woods. It easily releases for quick photography. It is so much more comfortable than a neck strap. Good product.

It's well made and my Canon T6i with 250mm lens feels securely attached. Fairly easy to draw camera to take a photo, not super fast. Fits me well after playing around with the exact angle to attach the shoulder straps. I'm 6ft4in 260lbs. Only issue is see is using this harness while wearing a backpack and hiking in the summer, it will be hot and sweaty.

This vest is so comfortable and it takes the pressure of the camera off of my neck/shoulders for when I’m out for a long time. The camera rests right on my chest and is easy to grab and shoot.

REVISED REVIEW: After using this harness for a bit over a week, I've changed my opinion of it. Although the should straps are adjustable, they can't be adequately adjusted so that they don't exert pressure on the base of the neck area. Presumably you can angle the straps outward from the back of the harness so they don't impinge on your neck, but that's not the case. They always want to rest on the base of the neck. Result: my neck and shoulders are tight and sore from this harness. What would make it a lot better is if the straps would attach to some sort of horizontal strap running across the shoulder blades, so that they'd run parallel over the shoulders. Instead, they connect to a single pouch on the back, so they will always want to pull toward the neck. I guess I'll have to go with something a lot more expensive. ORIGINAL REVIEW: "Here are my thoughts on this harness, which I recommend to other photographers who are experiencing pain and fatigue carrying a single camera. After using an over-the-shoulder strap to hold my Canon 5D with 100-400mm lens, this product does exactly what I needed: it distributes the weight evenly over both shoulders at the correct angle to distribute the weight while keeping the shoulder straps off my neck. I'm expecting this will avoid the painful knots I previously experienced in my shoulder and neck muscles. The camera locking system is secure and easy to use. Screw the supplied cam into the tripod socket of your camera. Make sure the wider dimensions of the cam run horizontal (right-to-left) rather than up-and-down. This is important so that the camera cannot slip out of the harness socket without the user intentionally turning the camera sideways. There's also a clip-on tether for added security, plus a wide "seat belt" to keep longer rigs from swaying during hikes, though the "seat belt" was barely long enough to go around my Canon 100-400mm lens. At least one reviewer has criticized the flat screwdriver tool provided to attach the cam to the camera. I had no trouble using the tool, which provides plenty of torque and easily stashes in the media pocket on the front of the harness. Expect to spend an hour or so getting things adjusted just right for your body. To me, this seems reasonable, given all the relief it's going to provide for your unique body shape. I do wish the adjustment process were a bit simpler. Hardest of all is to attach the shoulder straps at just the correct angle for your shoulders, and to make those angles symmetrical. To do that, you have to separate a hunky section of Velcro to adjust each strap in a rather tight sleeve (TIP: cut two pieces of thin cardboard to slip between male and female Velcro while you get the proper angles, then remove the cardboard and press the Velcro together). I would have liked to see a chest adjustment to raise the fronts of the shoulder pads, which would allow me to hang the whole rig a bit lower on my body. But really, that's asking a lot for a product which costs a fraction of similar systems. All in all, I'm quite happy with this harness."

I had a regular camera strap that went over my neck but slipped on some mud going up a hill and watch my camera swing forward. I cracked the hood but miraculously didn’t damage the lens. I bought this right after and feel much more secure walking around.

Exactly what I had hope for in the specs. Turn out better than I thought. Made carrying camera a breeze, saving my neck from fatigue.

In general, I like this harness vest. It takes the weight of the camera off your neck and keeps it solidly on your chest. One of the things I didn't like about camera straps before I bought this harness is that the camera would swing all over as you hike, and you had to use your hands to stabilize your camera to prevent it from hitting things occasionally. This harness fixes that problem. I also likes the fact that it clicks into place and does not fall out. I have seen other reviews that said that it falls out when the wearer bends down, but that just means that they didn't click it into place. You lock the camera in place either by sliding it down the slot on the vest quickly until you hear the click, or you turn the camera 90 degrees so that the lens points to the side, slide it down the slot, then let the lens swing down by gravity. (That is assuming that you attach the base plate onto the camera correctly, so that the slot on the plate is parallel to the back of the camera.) Now, there are a couple of things that it could be improved upon. The first time I used it on a hike, I was bothered by a squeaky noise as I took each step. It turned out the noise was from the slot on the vest rubbing against the head on the base plate. Before my second hike, I took some candle wax and rubbed it on the places that make contact, and there was no noise on my hike. Secondly, I didn't like the fact that you need to use a flat-head screwdriver (or the special tool that came with the vest) to attach the base plate to the bottom of the camera. It should have been designed so that it could be hand tighten, like a lot of quick-release tripod base plates. Better yet, it should have been designed to be compatible with Arca Swiss quick release base plates, so that you don't have to remove this plate and put on another one when you want to put your camera on a tripod.

Prima kwaliteit, fout van mezelf kan niet dienen

この商品の本来の使用用途は一眼レフカメラの使用を対象としていますが、私はウェラブルカメラを肩に取り付けて自転車の走行画像が撮りたくて購入しました。背面がメッシュになっているので夏の暑い状況下でも問題なく早朝着状態での走行撮影が可能です。

Eine sehr gute Alternative zu den Produkten welche erst jenseits der 100 € Anfangen. Eine gute Qualität zu einem guten Preis. Ich war von der Qualität sehr angenehm überrascht und kann es sowohl Anfängern als auch Berufsfotografen empfehlen. Ich war für einen Auftrag zwei Woche in Lappland unterwegs und hatte so gut wie jeden Tag die 5 Kg (5DIII ,Battariegriff und Sigma 150 - 600 ) an der Weste hängen. Die Weste ist gut justierbar und man bekommt noch locker einen großen Rucksack und Hüftgurttaschen angelegt. Die Langzeittauglichkeit kann ich nicht bewerten da ich die Weste erst kurz vor Abflug erhalten habe. Der Lieferumfang ist wie im Angebot angegeben. Das einzige Manko, die Adapterplatte für die Statifbefästigung kostet ca. 50 € XD . Die Feuertaufe hat die Weste auf jeden Fall bestanden.

Je cherchais un moyen de soulager mon cou du poids de mon K1 et bien je l'ai trouvé ! Je l'utilise tout le temps ! C'est super pratique. Je garde la dragonne autour du cou mais le reflex ne pèse pas dessus quand il est accroché au harnais. Demande un peu de réglages au début mais cela reste facile à utiliser.

I purchased this item last October and have used it frequently since. I am a landscape photographer and spend a long time walking with a heavy SLR camera and attached lens. Prior to my purchase my camera would sway about as I walked and I would have to steady the camera with my hand. With this very well made chest harness I no longer have this problem. I find the harness to be very comfortable for prolonged use and the camera is very secure when clipped into place,there are also two sturdy safety straps which attach to a camera. I can highly recommend this product at a great price.
