Review on OP/TECH USA Bino/Cam Harness - Enhanced Webbing for Optimal Comfort and Stability by Nick Winnett

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Terrible design, I want better suspension!

I really hate this. And I really tried to decide when in doubt. I really wanted it to work. The loops for hooking the quick release buckles were so thick and stiff that they were really, really difficult to put on (I should have listened to the reviews that said this the first time). I mean I used tweezers and metal files to try to get it in. I finally put it on. I'm surprised I wore it. Then this is the most uncomfortable suspension! The way it's made it's either so tight that the camera is pointing straight ahead, which isn't too bad (unless it's slamming into things when it's got a 55-200mm lens), but then it's hard to hold . to your face and shoot along. It seemed to me all along that my camera was about to return to my face. Or it's too loose and the back of the harness goes up and over your shoulder/neck and the camera bounces off your chest/stomach - and it bounces! This rubber band is elastic! I ended up just taking the camera off the seat belts and using it without the straps, just small clips that hung down the sides of my camera. Not perfect. Then when I removed the little fasteners it was literally as difficult as putting it on. I had to go through the whole process again with tweezers and a metal file. Super disappointed with it. I really wanted this yarn to work for me. :/
