I use this to carry water with me on a shoot. I do a lot of location shots, so I am away from my vehicle. I put it in one of the side pockets on my camera bag, but I find it very effective attached to my back pack or just my belt. I always carry two bottles. Not to nag, but when out away from civilization, always carry extra water and other supplies in case you cannot get back as planned.

Good little product, but be careful about the listed size. The 3 1/2 " x 8" spec is for the **outer** measurements including the bottle. The included plastic bottle smells of plastic and you'll want to use a lexan bottle by you-know-who. :) Your 1 liter water bottle won't fit. The half liter bottle will, but that's pretty small.

Comments about Tamrac MX5398 Water Bottle With Carrier:
This bottle and holder can be used in a variety of ways - it can be used with the modular system provided by Tamrac or it can be used with any belt to keep your water close at hand. The velcroc used to attach the holder to your belt or backpack is very strong and will not easily come apart and when used with the snaps you can be assured of a drink whenever you desire it. I have used it on several occasions and have not had any problems with it. The foam padding does a good job of keeping your drink cold. The only improvement that could be made is to the holder. Sometimes the bottle sweats and comes through the holder. This doesn't always happen and is not a serious problem when it does. If they were to replace the current material with non-sweat material they would have a real winner. All in all I am pleased with the product and will be buying more in the future.

Comments about Tamrac MX5398 Water Bottle With Carrier:
Two of my favorite things to shoot are sports and nature while hiking. I usually carry at least 2 bottles of water at all times in the leg pockets of my cargo pants. This should make staying hydrated a bit easier. Fits perfectly on my Tamrac Velocity 10X and 8X. I bought one MX5398 for now to test, but may follow up with another one soon.

Comments about Tamrac MX5398 Water Bottle With Carrier:
Love being able to carry water 'hands free' on the Tamrac pack. It's great that I can attach and unattach with a few snaps and velcro. That way I can remove it when I'm not going on a long photo shoot.

Comments about Tamrac MX5398 Water Bottle With Carrier:
I take photos of nature. This requires me having water with me. Putting water in my vest works but this take room away from other item i carry with me. I attach the holder to my belt and go with its easy access. Holds other water bottles well.
Pros
- Practical
Cons
Best Uses
- Travel
- Walking shoots
Comments about Tamrac MX5398 Water Bottle With Carrier:
If you do a large amount of walking while you shoot, this is for you. Keeping yourself hydrated while in the field is important. You are already carrying a heavy bag of gear, but you don't want a bottle of water IN your camera bag.
This keeps the water on the outside of the bag but still easiy acessible. It clips right on to many tamrac bags or can simply slip onto your belt and carry it on your hip.
