Nicama S-VEST Camera Carrying Chest Harness Vest System with Secure Strap for 1 Camera Canon Nikon Sony Panasonic Olympus Fuji

I bought this to use hiking and biking with a Nikon D7500 camera w/18-300 lens. I wanted a harness that solidly held the camera secure without dangling and also gave freedom of movement for both hiking and biking. It's a bit cumbersome at first to get the right fit as there are quite a few adjustment points. Though as everyone has a different torso shape I appreciated being able to get it to fit me exactly. For hiking, it easily fit under my backpack without impeding movement. I used the tether on the camera body but also kept the neck strap on for my own comfort level. The harness has an extra cross strap to hold the lens down keeping the whole camera from swinging while scrambling around on the rocks. Then I gave it a go with biking along a flat trail. It worked great by keeping the camera centered and secured without getting in the way of steering or peddling. It appears to be good quality and solid. It definitely held my DLSR without any problem. Overall a great product, I'm glad I bought it as it makes the camera easily accessible with outdoor activities.

Im giving 5 but would really do 4.5*. Its fairly comfortable to wear and keeps a body snug to chest with short lens. Ill admit i pushed it with a 15" 3kg lens and still held ok for short periods. Dinging half star because the damn attachment to camera to clip to vest fell off camera at some point. It came loose on own even after tightening once.

The good side: It holds my camera securely and the safety strap gives me peace of mind on more challenging hikes. The materials seem durable and its not ugly or awkward like some products similar to this. It gets the job done. The not as good side: It's doubtful you'll ever feel like this harness is truly comfortable. Tolerable, for sure. And not terrible, once you get it adjusted. But the netting on the back doesn't provide any grip so the weight of your camera is always going to be pulling the whole thing forward and down. It's just physics, and the construction is too slight to counteract that force. I've worn mine about a dozen times now, enough to start planning to adding a bit of neoprene or rubber padding to increase the long-term wearability. That said, I've worn this up to 4 hours, and 9 miles, so it's clearly not a dealbreaker. It accomplishes what I needed, which is to put my DSLR in a spot where it would be secure and safe - mounted to my chest and locked in place. For the price, this is a good product.

Quality appears to be good. Very simple assembly and adjustment. The translation from Chinese to English was very funny. Highly recommend

Bought to use while say hiking for easy access and keeping it from swinging around. Works great.

Just so everyone is aware it is not compatible with peak design equipment if that was your thought. Very similar but reversed.

Well made, like the arca swiss compatibility. however the provided plate is proprietary, and a regular arca plate will not work with the vest. if the original plate is lost, you're screwed. not sure if extras can be ordered. otherwise, a decent product. in addition, overall the mounting place platform is too small as with the plate itself. access to the quick release button is user unfriendly. these are design flaws that could easily be remedied by the manufacturer. this vest is a good idea, but poorly designed for quick access to camera equipment. the harness itself is adequate but not quality the quick release button is recessed to where it is difficult to release, & by then the plate itself becomes loose. this is a design flaw. poor product

This chest carrier harness is great. It securely holds my camera in place while walking or hiking. Additionally, there is a strap that can attach to your camera when the camera is in use. No neck or back strain associated with its use over hours of use. Well ventilated.

Den passar bra och funkar som den ska, inget ont att säga.

Première utilisation ce WE sur une épreuve auto. Evite la fatigue au niveau du cou, avec un boitier + un zoom 70-300mm; Poids de l'appareil 1,2Kg. Utilisation toute la journée. Aucune fatigue au niveau du cou. Très bon achat. Bon rapport qualité/prix

Very well done.

Prinzipiell habe ich nach einer Möglichkeit geguckt, mein 150-600 mm objektiv am Körper zu tragen, damit dieses nicht so schwer wird auf der Pirsch nach schönen Wildtiermotiven. Genau dafür handelt es sich auch um eine sehr guter Anschaffung. Ich kann Objektiv und Kamera vor mir am Körper tragen und stütze diese nur zwischendurch mit meiner Hand. Das entlastet den Rücken enorm. Die Qualität finde ich für den Preis angemessen. Dass der Einschub aus Kunststoff ist.. seis drum. Irgendwo muss dieser günstiger Preis für etwas was sonst viel teuer ist gerechtfertigt sein. Klare Kaufempfehlung!

Muy útil y casi se olvida que uno lo trae puesto cargando la cámara y permite movilizar perfectamente los brazos. Fue el mejor regalo para mi esposo
