Dear  Kevin

The first link was my private album. I am sorry.

I fix camera box at the three points, then it is firmly fixed.
I do not like your camera position, since I am living in Japan, where
the very steep climb appears suddenly. I think this camera position at
the left side of the body may be safe.

The weight of my camera is 1.65 Kg, very heavy. But, the weight is
distributed to the 3 points. So I only feel weak weight at the
shoulder belts.
