If you are like me and hate standard camera straps, this is the system for you. With a multitude of adjustment points possible you will have no problem getting this to fit you properly within a few minutes. My initial run with this product was a trip to a zoo carrying a K20D gripped with a Sigma 135-400mm lens attached and it was incredibly comfortable the whole time. Having the angled hub is a necessity for gripped cameras and luckily the package I purchased had it included. It actually came with both the angled and non-angled hub, the universal tripod adapter plate and hand strap all as a bonus. I am not crazy about the hand strap and found it a little uncomfortable. As for operation of the locking hub, it is quite easy to get used to the action of turning your camera 45 degrees to unlock and lock it onto the vest. The tether strap is also a nice touch and adds a bit of piece of mind encase you accidentally drop it. The whole system folds up and fits nicely into a mesh bag that is also supplied. I highly recommend this system as a superior alternative to camera straps and for anyone looking to end the "pain in the neck" that is associated with them.
