Comfortable & convenient
This camera harness works great. Holds the camera securely close to the body while hiking in the woods. It easily releases for quick photography. It is so much more comfortable than a neck strap. Good product.

Works great! Very adjustable!
Works great for my pf 500 lens. I'm petite, but the vest is very adjustable, length and width wise. You do have to tighten the screw down pretty good to prevent the attachment piece from rotating, but once you do that, the attachment seems very secure.

It works pretty well for smaller people I suppose
The shoulder straps have limited adjustability. I'm only 5'9" and they're just barely long enough. The English instructions are completely useless. The velcro flap at the the front is supposed to hold the belt in place, but the matching velcro piece on the body is underneath the belt, so that doesn't work. Otherwise, it's comfortable and secure and I like it.

Not designed for comfort (Revised—was "Excellent product for the price")
REVISED REVIEW:After using this harness for a bit over a week, I've changed my opinion of it. Although the should straps are adjustable, they can't be adequately adjusted so that they don't exert pressure on the base of the neck area. Presumably you can angle the straps outward from the back of the harness so they don't impinge on your neck, but that's not the case. They always want to rest on the base of the neck. Result: my neck and shoulders are tight and sore from this harness.What would make it a lot better is if the straps would attach to some sort of horizontal strap running across the shoulder blades, so that they'd run parallel over the shoulders. Instead, they connect to a single pouch on the back, so they will always want to pull toward the neck.I guess I'll have to go with something a lot more expensive.ORIGINAL REVIEW:"Here are my thoughts on this harness, which I recommend to other photographers who are experiencing pain and fatigue carrying a single camera.After using an over-the-shoulder strap to hold my Canon 5D with 100-400mm lens, this product does exactly what I needed: it distributes the weight evenly over both shoulders at the correct angle to distribute the weight while keeping the shoulder straps off my neck. I'm expecting this will avoid the painful knots I previously experienced in my shoulder and neck muscles.The camera locking system is secure and easy to use. Screw the supplied cam into the tripod socket of your camera. Make sure the wider dimensions of the cam run horizontal (right-to-left) rather than up-and-down. This is important so that the camera cannot slip out of the harness socket without the user intentionally turning the camera sideways.There's also a clip-on tether for added security, plus a wide "seat belt" to keep longer rigs from swaying during hikes, though the "seat belt" was barely long enough to go around my Canon 100-400mm lens.At least one reviewer has criticized the flat screwdriver tool provided to attach the cam to the camera. I had no trouble using the tool, which provides plenty of torque and easily stashes in the media pocket on the front of the harness.Expect to spend an hour or so getting things adjusted just right for your body. To me, this seems reasonable, given all the relief it's going to provide for your unique body shape.I do wish the adjustment process were a bit simpler. Hardest of all is to attach the shoulder straps at just the correct angle for your shoulders, and to make those angles symmetrical. To do that, you have to separate a hunky section of Velcro to adjust each strap in a rather tight sleeve (TIP: cut two pieces of thin cardboard to slip between male and female Velcro while you get the proper angles, then remove the cardboard and press the Velcro together).I would have liked to see a chest adjustment to raise the fronts of the shoulder pads, which would allow me to hang the whole rig a bit lower on my body. But really, that's asking a lot for a product which costs a fraction of similar systems.All in all, I'm quite happy with this harness."

Glad I bought this
I had a regular camera strap that went over my neck but slipped on some mud going up a hill and watch my camera swing forward. I cracked the hood but miraculously didn’t damage the lens. I bought this right after and feel much more secure walking around.

No warranty, Product failed.
Edit:Plastic catch that holds camera cracked at about the 60 day mark. I cannot find any warranty other than the 30 day return policy.Second purchase of this vest, purchased my first one four years ago. It just wore out. The new vest came with a safety strap that I can’t figure out how it would attach to a camera. I immediately broke the clip and added one that fits. I also cannot mount the round bracket on my camera in the perpendicular position because my camera body will not clear the catch. I have not had an issue with my camera coming loose from that feature though.One new feature I would like to see is an extra strap that goes over a telephoto lens to secure from swinging. I made one for my first vest.

Great for hiking
Easy to wear - I use this when I am out hiking - convenient when my hands are tied up with walking sticks.
