I have used the Op/Tech dual harness for 3 years with mixed feelings. But recently I improved it and now it's great for carrying a camera or two. I like to carry two cameras with me when photographing nature with butterflies, birds, wildflowers and other wildlife. I usually use a Canon 7D Mark II with a 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L II IS lens and a Canon 7D with a 100mm f2.8L IS macro lens or a Canon 24-105 f/4L IS. I often use a gimbal or ball tripod for wildlife or macro photography, so all of my lenses come with Arca-Swiss style mounts. Arca-Swiss mounts allow you to quickly set up and balance your camera on a tripod head, as well as balance upside down on your camera strap. The Op/Tech system gives me the ability to quickly switch between straps depending on shooting conditions, so each of my cameras comes with a standard Op/Tech 3/8" system connector that doubles as a carrying handle when not in use . I've used this standard dual-strap mount, with mixed feelings. Using the standard camera strap connectors that attach to the top of the camera is impractical if you have a telephoto or macro lens with a flash. When walking or tilting, they hang down and sway wildly, so you have to be careful if you have heavy gear like me. The location also requires the straps between the camera and the strap to be long enough for you to be able to pull the camera out to eye level, about 4 inches longer than when the strap is Attached to the bot Camera Tom I started thinking about this about a month ago how I could improve my settings. I already had a Kirk photo strap with Arca-Swiss clip, which I liked to use when I only had one lens with me. The strap allows the camera to hang upside down next to my trash, balanced so it doesn't wobble as much when I walk and is much more comfortable to wear. But it didn't work when I tried carrying a second camera on a second strap. My solution was to remove the clip from the Kirk strap and use the system connectors that came with the Op/Tech dual strap to make a small strap that holds the Kirk Arca-Swiss clip. Now I can attach any of my lenses or cameras that already have Arca-Swiss mounts to the strap and the strap can easily be moved from side to side. When I needed a second Arca-Swiss belt clip, I bought the Aluminum Neewerยฎ Screw Handle Clip Compatible with Arca Swiss Mini Quick Release Hot Shoe Mount for QR Plate (38mm) for less than $20 from Revain; I like it even better than Kirk's. I have ordered another one. I also chose to use a small S-shaped binner in the setup so I can easily attach the strap/clip to my belt or belt loop so the cameras don't swing forward when I lean forward. Over time I've learned that the Dual Harness is much more comfortable when worn loose. Unzipping allows me to quickly slip it over my head without unzipping it and carry it comfortably with a camera or two. Finally, if you're a binocular wearer like me, I recommend using the Op/Tech Bino/Cam Harness (elastic version). It works great and is worn on a double strap while the binoculars are close to the chest. The attached photo shows straps I made using Kirk Photo (above) and Neewer Arca-Swiss clips. The use and placement of the S-Biner is optional.
