Q: 3. I'm 5'4 female with a Nikon D810 and 500mm lens. Will this work on a Botswana safari where the vehicles are open and a bean bag would be useless and a monopod might be difficult?

A: I am 5'4 and have a nikon D750. I used the vest on a recent trip to the arctic. It was wonderful for securing the camera with the 70-200mm lens when I was getting in and out of the zodiac boats or when we were in rough waters and it takes the weight of the camera off your neck when you are out shooting for hours. The steady shot was an okay replacement for a tripod in tight or rough shooting conditions, but it is subject to the movement of your body. Use a fast shutter speed and a high ISO and you will need to keep your hands on the camera, especially with a big lens. I haven't tried it with my 500mm lens as I just bought that one.

Q: 4. Does this fit a D500 and Nikkor 200-500 mm lens?Also, when not using for steady shot, does this function as a carrier harness, as well?

A: 1. I use it for D80 with Sigma 300-600, so it should be fine with your rig.2. Yes, it functions as an excellent camera harness, super comfortable and convenient. In fact, I do not use steady shot much, but I never go shooting with my telephoto without the vest -- the lens is too heavy to carry around my neck for more than an hour, with the vest I can walk and shoot all day long.

Q: 5. Can this be comfortably worn while wearing the Cotton Carrier Steady Shot with Camera Vest to carry a second camera?

A: Yes, a end-user must be mindful when adding more weight to the cotton carrier system.

Q: 8. I have canon equipment , realistically what is the largest lens the cotton carrier steady shot with camera vest can keep stable?

A: I use the cotton carrier with a Nikkor 300mm f/2.8 lens and 1.4X teleconverter attached to a Nikkon D300s camera. it works well but I don't like carrying it long distances ( I'm 78 and weigh 112 lb so that's probably not a problem for someone younger and stronger).Ann

Q: 10. Will This work with a Nikon 800mm fl Ed 5.6 lens?

A: The Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 800mm f/5.6E FL ED VR Lens (B&H # NI80056) has not been tested with the Cotton Carrier Steady Shot with Camera Vest.
