Somewhat difficult is the correct setting of the Length: A too long set Sniper lets the camera at every step around the thigh commute, too short a sniper lost much a comfort as you have access to high to get the device. Therefore this pipe should never possible to switch users, otherwise every time we go the fumbling afresh. Otherwise, I have never felt with camera slung over her so well! The diagonal carrying method is itself a moderate camera (I use the EOS 50D plus telephoto) with no complaints about hours to wear casually, also may or running or violent movements slide down nothing. You slide over rough terrain times from the camera can be simply dropped. The shock absorber in the belt protection against shocks clean. Since the Objetiv hangs down, the lens cap is not required even in light rain and without fixation like a normal camera strap fast handling even under a (ok: front open) is raincoat out always guaranteed. In this way I have with integrated camera unscathed already four hours continuously pouring rain and also shot some good pictures. If someone is in addition to backpacking: The camera-side strap should be below the Sniper are ;-))
