Pretty much worked as advertised
It actually works pretty great. Once the cameras are locked into the holsters, they feel very secure. I did buy separate carabiners and straps because the included ones seemed a bit flimsy. In reality, I am sure the included ones are just fine. I can tell that the plastic bases not super durable but for the price it seems like a good deal even if I have to replace it in a year. I have used the harness a few times so far and it seems to work very well, and a lot more secure than a camera hanging off of a strap on each side. I definitely feel more confident in crowded situations. It is also a lot easier on the back. I would like better instructions on the ideal way to connect straps and carabiners. You also have to make sure that you slide the cameras all the way into the holsters and hear them click into the locks. It seems easy to not have it locked in. But overall, I like this system over other holsters that I have tried. I can switch cameras quickly, it seems supportive on back and shoulders, and the price is right.

Works well for me.
The media could not be loaded. I like to hike in the desert with my camera and binoculars, and was looking for some type of rigging to share the load and organize and minimize the "strap tangle" (I also wear sunglasses with a neck strap, so between the three it got pretty cumbersome). This harness has resolved most of my issues.I find it pretty comfortable. I read in the reviews/questions a lot of "will it fit a (big) size?" -- the answer is yes- meaning it will fit around a big belly. There is an abundance of strap length- in fact, way too much for me, but it's easier to shorten a strap than lengthen one. The shoulder straps also seem plenty long. That said, I don't know about the shoulder straps for a really large person since they are adjustable/attached via Velcro. If one was really larger I think the Velcro contact area may be too small to really hold tight. I am about 5-7/135 and have all the straps as short as I could get them and it fits "just right," so it you are smaller than me this may be too big. Anyway, it fits me.It is pretty sturdy. I slide my camera into the slot and there it stays until I remove it. Yes, there's a little bit of "bounce" as I walk, but very minimal. The attachment disk stays very securely attached to the camera, so there is no issue with stripping the tripod mount receiver-- I've checked this repeatedly after multiple uses because one of the complaints in the reviews was that the attachment would come loose-- the minimal instructions are very adamant as to how to "set the screw" to prevent this, and so far (I've used it on 3 relatively rugged desert hikes in the week I've had it) it is working great, the screw has remained tight and secure; no constant re-tightening needed.I do leave the neck strap attached to the camera and around my neck because I am more comfortable doing that, but the weight is on the harness. I have a Nikon P900 with the tripod mount off center, so the camera hangs a little canted in the slot, but it's not an issue. But the metal rings that are supposed to attach to the camera to use the "security straps" don't fit on my camera so I have to keep my current neck-strap configuration anyway-for now.I made an attachment for the harness's shoulder strap to hold my binocular strap on my shoulder to keep it from sliding off. I haven't figured out how to use the additional "holster" for my binocs yet, but I'm working on it.If I had Input on the design, I'd suggest putting a useable pocket on the front. And having a little less strap length (the pocket is way too small and unless you are the diameter of a 300 year old redwood tree, the extra waist strap is overkill and the extra is supposed to gounder the pocket flap, rendering the Velcro to hold the pocket flap closed totally useless (which isn't a huge thing because the pocket is pretty much useless to begin with. But I guess it's only supposed to hold a lens cap - and with the lens cap in it, the flap doesn't close!).Overall, I'm satisfied with this harness-- and it was a price that I'm comfortable doing some alterations to it to customize it (if I pay a lot for something, don't expect to have to make any "fixes").

I LOVE ITTTTT!
Trust me when I say it. I cannot shoot without this anymore. It’s literally perfect.I don’t have much to say, just buy it!

LOVE IT
I was afraid that this would be cheaply made, boy was i wrong. It has a great feel and fit. The ability to adjust to fit my body is a plus. I have a long vacation coming up the will really be the test. For now, I love it.

Very Handy
Been in a recent car accident and bought this so I can still shoot photography and use my walker or cane. Very pleased that it’s very easy to do so!

limitations
I Purchased this in advance to use for my national parks vacay, so my return window closed. In order to use this system, you need to have a separate, additional purchase of a quick-release plate ($40+) that compliments the round clip that mounts to the DSLR to connect to the holster. The quick release plate for that system is no way sturdy enough to hold in a vertical position and needs constant tightening to keep locked-in to hold in a horizontal position. Also, the round clips that come with the holster that attach the camera to the holster would frequently come loose and disconnect from the camera so the camera would fall away from the holster. If not for the tether my D810 would have dropped to the ground several times.The only option would be to use the camera holster system without a tripod to shoot hand-held or remove the round clip-plate from the bottom of your camera and then put on a traditional QR plate then mount to a tripod every time you need tripod stability.This holster and the additional necessary QR plate were a big disappointment. Not practical at all for this shooter. Yet another photography accessory to be put in storage.

Good, if flawed
Got this so I could carry my camera while hiking using trekking sticks. Serves the purpose. I have not had the problem some complain about it working itself off. Not sure, but could be because I systematically put it in and take it out in a way that would trend to tighten rather than loosen the screw (with respect to the lens, Right to Rest, Left to Lift). A star off for limited adjustability, manufacturers cheaped out and used strap fittings that are hard to adjust: you can't just pull to tighten, even though it needs to be readjusted, for example, if you take off a jacket. More generally, wish it could be adjusted lower on one's chest, but held well to the chest. It can't, at least for me. have not used the side holster
