The Cotton Carrier Steady Shot is an adjustable aluminum bracket that allows you to support the weight of your camera steadily against your chest by inserting the bottom end of the Steady Shot into the Lexan receptacle of your existing Cotton Carrier Camera Vest.
With several mounting points on its top plate, the Steady Shot is compatible with any quick-release clamp or photo/video head. Two adjustment points allow you to set the tilt and height of the camera easily. With the weight of the camera supported against your chest, you're free to operate comfortably – with fluid movements and the freedom to adjust settings on your camera – for long periods of time.
The rock-solid Steady Shot can support the weight of any DSLR camera, even with a long lens attached. It's perfect for shooting nature, sports, documentaries, or any other project that has you on your feet and moving about for hours at a stretch. The stable platform will enable you to capture crisper shots than traditional handheld operation allows. For certain projects you'll be able to leave the tripod or monopod at home, thereby increasing your mobility.
Note! Requires the Cotton Carrier Camera Vest and a camera mount of some sort.

Easy to use. Once you have set your personalized setting on the arm this is a very basic click on and click off rest. It reduces camera shake with heavier lenses. I love the way the weight of the canera is distributed to your body without feeling the stress, leaving your hands to do the job of taking the picture. The only thing I have against it is carrying it around. it needs some sort of a clip to hang on to the cotton carrier vest.

Comments about Cotton Carrier Steady Shot:
This is a nicely constructed accessory. I am using it as a steady video/cam support. Much less expensive and very small footprint compared to shoulder rigs. I gave it 4 stars because it's a bit expensive for what it is, and there's no 3/8in bolt hole (they do send a 1/4 to 3/8 adapter), threaded or otherwise.
