      Great option for a big lens

      I bought a chest carrier shortly after getting a 200-500 for my D750 and frankly didn't love the way it held the unit. Even as a 6'1" tall person it was uncomfortable how the lens hood felt on my lower waist. This is far more comfortable and easier to use.

      Not for bad backs.

      I have friends who wax enthusiastic about the slingbelt, but I also have lower back problems and had to return it. I bought it to use with a 100 - 400mm lens, and just walking around the house for 5 minutes or so caused back pain. Clearly wouldn't work for hours in the field. So I guess it's a great system, but not for me.

      So disappointed

      First time using it to carry my Nikon D850 with 50 mm lens on a hike in Colorado. Within fifteen minutes the screw fell out and I did not have the Allen wrench. My daughter carried it by way of shoulder strap while she also carried her Canon. After 5 miles the assembly on the bottom all fell out and rubber gasket was lost. I felt so disappointed this didn’t work for me.

      As Advertised

      Received the Sl;ingbelt system with the added bucket accessory. Works as described. I look forward to using it for my travel photography experiences. Customer Service was great and very timely in the shipping of the product. Overall, very happy with my purchase.

      Cotton carry belt

      I love the belt system! I wish the universal tripod adapter had the belt adapter built into it …I feel like adding the adapter makes it stick out to far. Otherwise I love it! It’s very comfortable and easy to use

      Return Policy

      3 week no questions asked returns and 3 year technical warranty.

      Does the system work for large telephotos like a 600mm?

      The carrier will not fail under the weight of your camera/lens setup. A 600mm will place your weight forward and for some, it becomes a bit awkward. The system will not fail, but it becomes a subjective matter of comfort.

      Can I add another camera or binocular holster after?

      Yes, we offer a modular side holster with camera or binocular hardware. Or the individual hardware for camera or binoculars can be purchased independently.

      Can I put my camera into the binocular carrier's receiver? Or vice versa?

      All hardware uses the same twist and lock system, so you can place your camera or binoculars interchangeably in any receiver.
