    Excellent

    Avec ce système je peux maintenant faire de la photo tout en ayant mes jumelles ce que je ne pouvais pas faire avant vu le poids et l'encombrement des deux.

    Good, too long though

    For the most part, this is an excellent piece of kit for carrying my binoculars. It takes the weight of them off my shoulders and I am able to easily carry them with me when I am out hiking. I have however deducted a star because even though I’ve shortened the strap as much as I can, it is still too long and my binoculars end up over my stomach rather than my chest. It’s not really an inconvenience other than the fact that it looks awful in photos (I certainly won’t be in any publicity photos any time soon!). The G2 Skout may be able to accommodate more body types than the original, but it could still do with more work, especially for women.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How do I use the tripod or quick release?

    The hardware has a tripod holed milled into it for tripod use. If you use quick release we recommend the Universal Tripod Adapter Plate or Universal Arca Swiss L-Bracket.

    Women's sizing

    The harness system is one size fits all with 6 points of adjustment. We get lots of positive feedback from woman photographers.

    Sizing for larger or smaller individuals

    The systems are one size fits all, spanning 26" to 57" inch waist measurements.

    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.
