Cotton Carrier Harness-1 Overview

Designed for active photographers, the gray CCS G3 Harness-1 from Cotton Carrier helps to evenly distribute the weight of a camera with a long lens. This arrangement keeps the camera at the ready for making the most of spontaneous photographic opportunities, while also keeping hands free, equipment safer from grab-and-go theft, and reducing unwanted camera movement. Photographers will appreciate the one-size-fits-all approach, comprised of adjustable shoulder straps and a quick-release waist belt.

Two stash pockets for memory cards or batteries and a large exterior pocket provide storage for accessories. The CCS G3 Harness is constructed from Kodra synthetic canvas and anodized aluminum, and features a Twist & Lock camera mounting system and vented back panel. Included with your harness are a hub with rubber washer, a camera hub mounting bolt and tether strap, an Allen key, and a rain cover.

Advantages
A quick-release waist belt with speed straps, two stash pockets for carrying extra memory cards or small items on the front, a large outside pocket on the back, and a touch-fastening lens hold-down strap work together for improved hands-free usage with greater mobility.
Twist & Lock Mount
The Twist & Lock camera mount system provides stability and security. One twist locks the camera in place, making it difficult for grab-and-go theft. It also stabilizes the camera so the wearer is free to move vigorously without excessive camera movement/banging.
Tripod Compatibility
The CCS G3 Camera Harness features a Twist & Lock mounting system. Included is an aluminum flat-hub which mounts onto all cameras with a 1/4"-20 tripod mounting socket. This hub also has its own 1/4"-20 tripod mount.
Optional Items - Sold Separately
Option 1: Add the Hand Strap for those times when you need a little extra stability.

Option 2: 10-Degree Angled Hub for a DSLR with a long lens.

Option 3: Universal Tripod Adapter Plate. This plate is compatible with most tripod heads on the market. It is cut to fit directly into any Arca-Swiss style head, and designed with enough adjustment holes to slide back and forth on the bottom of your camera to leave the battery door accessible.

Must have for hiking photography!

Great investment for a small price. Just back from Zion and Bryce Canyon National Park on a photo hiking tour. Well made, light weight, adjustments to secure your valuable photo equipment to your chest. When a picture presents itself, just slip your camera from its snug holster and shoot away. Also has a rain cover in an attached pouch that really does a great job in quickly covering and protecting your equipment. Fits easily under your water proof rain coat or shell when needed. Get it, no more bulky camera packs, just strap it to your chest and off you go for the day!

great harness with one flaw

I'm a journalist and do a lot of wilderness and expedition photography--including skiing. This is the best camera harness system I've used. Very comfortable, I can wear it over lots of clothes; can wear a pack over it with no trouble; highly adjustable; durable buckles and straps; rain (snow!) cover is clever and easy to use since it clips on in front; safety tether is solid and easy to unclip for when I need the camera off the harness.The hub (i.e., the metal plate for the bottom of the camera) is strong and attaches/detaches easily with an allen wrench (Included. Don't forget to bring it with you!) I also like the strap that holds the end of the camera lens against the harness, especially nice with a long lens. The turn and drop system for the hub is my concern. It's quick to use: simply turn the camera 90 degrees and then just slide it down and straighten to lock in place. Boom, done. But the space in the slide plate is a bit too wide, so the camera slops around a little bit--especially compared to a Peak Design Capture Camera Clip which is super-solid metal and has a great release button system. Worse, the camera can fall out of the slide plate under field conditions. I fall on skis pretty regularly (occupational hazard!) and when I get upside-down or nearly so, the camera will turn to the side on its own weight and then just fall out. Bad. Especially in snow. It needs a more fail-safe locking system. Other than that, excellent product.
