Re: Optech Dual Harness
Handheld. Monopods or tripods slow the shot, because you are manoeuvring around their fixed axis. Much quicker and more responsive to just tuck your elbows into your chest to brace yourself and let your more powerful back muscles swivel to follow the target. It sound far more impressive than it is and those here that know me will confirm that I am of average build.
I have tested it to over twice the weight of the 1 series/ 500mm combo without problem. However, I am always cautious when connecting the straps to ensure I feel and hear the "Click" as the straps connects. From then on, I am confident it will handle the weight.

Do you use the 500mm handheld or do you carry a monopod/tripod also?
not sure I would trust that plastic clip to hang a 500mm f/4L on?
