Have something similar, not that great because of the weight of a dslr. Maybe better for mounting on other places besides the belt.

Looks good for the average consumer with a small DSLR, but the parts look too wimpy to withstand professional use.

I have the SpiderPro belt system and I can easily carry a 1DmkIV with a 70-200mm f2.8L IS attached with lens pouches for about 3 lenses.

Looks perfect for hikers!

Right now what I do when I go hiking is wear the camera like a shouder bag.. to keep the camera away from my arms.

Wearing it just around the neck is difficult and hurts after a while..

I bought one of these suckers: http://www.blackrapid.com/product/camera-strap/rs-7/

I'd trust that way more over a little "belt clip" as Senna mentioned...

^ that looks cool, but it looks like the camera will be all dangly and swinging around when not in use? Also, unless you need the extreme 'speed', why not just wear the regular camera strap like that? Works good enough for most cases.

The clip itself is not weak at all.. it all depends on what you are attaching it too. The clip would work perfect on a backpack or a tight leather belt.

^ I usually don't use straps on my camera because I hate having it hang on my neck. I also dislike having it hang on my shoulder as it slips a lot.

Will it work good for hiking do you think? I'm debating between the clip and the RC strap.

No clue....I hate hiking.

We've sold a bunch to people who bought it for going hiking though.

damn.. that rs7 strap is quite pricey. Just under 100 bucks.

Also, that clip thing is not for sale yet. It is under pledge lol.

a camera hanging off your pants is plain stupid. i like the dual strap from BlackRapid though, which i may need very soon.

Supported and 'bought' one bc I like the concept. Should be a good strap when I go hiking, I can just tag it onto my backpack.

it will if you clip it to something rigid, like a backpack. It's probably not suited for a 1D however.

i really like the idea of clipping it to a backpack strap. I go hiking quite a bit and it is always a hassle to take out my camera from the backpack.

I'm more interested in a durability test rather than a strength test.

FAIL at pronouncing the word, "chassis" as "cha-sis."
