Holdfast MoneyMaker B&H Description:
Hold two cameras comfortably at your hips, and one by your chest with this medium Money Maker Three-Camera Harness with Silver Hardware by HoldFast Gear made of tan English Bridle leather. For comfortable wear and shooting, the straps of the harness lie in an "X" pattern across your back for added support. The Speed Clutch mechanism allows the camera to slide along the harness to eye level easily.
To secure your gear to the harness, the system includes two Camera Holdfast Accessory Clips that screw into the 1/4-20" tripod threads of each camera or lens. There are two metal D-rings on the front straps of the harness, and two on the back. By attaching the included Camera Leashes to the D-rings on the front, you are able to carry a third camera on the harness. Each Camera Leash also has a D-ring at the top, allowing you to attach even more accessories to the front of your harness. You can attach an HF Luggage Tag Wallet, or yet another Camera Leash to these extra D-rings for holding a lens or pouch.
The regular size Money Maker provides the best fit for people between 5'8" and 6'2" in height. The Money Maker Three-Camera Harness is made in the USA and backed by a lifetime warranty against manufacturer's defects.
Designed to hold a camera on the left and right side of your body at hip level. A third camera can be attached to the harness by snapping the included Camera Leashes into the D-rings on the front of the harness.
Speed Clutch mechanism allows you to slide each camera smoothly from your side, up to eye level to shoot.
Includes two Camera Holdfast Accessory Clips that screw into the 1/4-20" tripod threads of your cameras.
Six metal D-rings permit you to attach accessories.
English Bridle leather is made in a process where only the best grades of leather are stuffed with grease and finished with wax. One side has a smooth, flesh texture and the other has a grainy texture.

Spider Holster: (B&H description)
The SpiderPro Dual Camera System improves upon the Single Camera system with the addition of another SpiderPro Holster, Plate and Pin. It includes a belt made from webbing materials similar to those used in army/police equipment. The belt features a triple-lock buckle and fits most waists with its adjustable 28 - 50" (71.1 - 127 cm) size. The rest of the package consists of a pad for comfort, 2 holsters, 2 camera plates and 2 pins. Using this system, you can remain hands-free while your DSLR hangs at your side, waiting for that grab shot. The SpiderPro belt holds the entire rig, the holsters hold the cameras, the cast aluminum alloy plates attach to the tripod sockets of your cameras and let you easily connect your quick-release for tripod use, and the stainless steel pins attach to the plates. The entire assembly slides into the holsters, which secure to the belt using Spider's 2-position triple lock buckle system. Your cameras stay at your side while retaining complete freedom of movement.
When the cameras are slid into the holster, they lock into place. When placed into the upper portion of the holster, they're ready to be drawn as soon as the lock releases - just as if you were wearing a holstered pistol. This heavy-duty system is targeted at the "run-and-gun" shooter who is constantly on the prowl for that "keeper".

Black Rapid B&H Description:
This BlackRapid Double Breathe Camera Harness accommodates two cameras by allowing them to hang from the right and left shoulders. The cameras can then rest upside-down along both the right and left hips so they can be quickly raised for use. Even when connected to two large cameras with their attached lenses, the Double Breathe remains comfortable to wear due to its resilient and breathable mesh pads which cushion the back and shoulders. The pads' structure optimizes air circulation between the wearer and the harness, which works to remove and minimize perspiration in warm and hot environments. For those with a thin or small build, the Double Slim Breathe Camera Harness can be chosen for a better fit.
To attach to a camera or a lens, both of the Double Breathe Camera Harness' webbings feature a durable, brass and zinc-alloy CR-3 ConnectR locking carabiner. Also provided is a BlackRapid FR-5 FastenR Breathe for every carabiner. Each FR-5 FastenR Breathe creates a connection point using a camera or lens's 1/4"-20 tripod mount and has a large, integrated D-ring for easy use with BlackRapid webbings that utilize a CR-3 ConnectR.
