I Switched to Spider Holster and I Regret NOTHING

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

I had the chance to put the Peak Design to the test at a wedding, and let me tell you, in my professional opinion, it didn't quite live up to expectations. However, I must say, I was absolutely delighted to have the opportunity to try out the Spider Holster at another wedding yesterday. And guess what? It exceeded all my expectations! It's absolutely perfect for the fast-paced and comfortable shooting style that I prefer on wedding days.

My main issue is that i have almost no butt (thanks to both of my parents for not giving me the good genes) 😂 I do have the PD clip which i love, but not all the time though… good video, thanks!

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

😊

[@shotbyshan77]

Funny I was just saying the same thing to myself. 😂😂

[@MosesMind]

thank you for the video, may you update the instagram link, it doesnt seem to be working

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

You are welcome, I’ll do that now, thanks for telling me about the link!

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

Let me know if the link works now

[@MosesMind]

@@AndreMorganPhotography yes thank you it does

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

@MosesMind awesome, appreciate you, thanks for looking out!

[@mindfulnessmindsquotes_]

great review and demonstration as always!

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

Really appreciate it, thank you! 🙏🏾

[@ignitedrivesucceed]

Dope, I can see why you changed

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

Thank you, it truly is, I actually am using now and it’s great!

[@jeffrey3205]

I was going to ask you why youcdid not use the spider, its much better than the peak design

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

Yeah I had to get it after that wedding I did, it was bad experience for me, when I had to put my camera on the floor, that was it for me

[@UnitedWeBrap]

Thank you for uploading this video. We found this camera holster to be very helpful for our line of work. What backpack were you using in this video? Thank you.

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

Thank you! I had to update, because of the experience I had, I try to be honest with my reviews. Here’s the bag: amzn.to/3UAjI85

[@Jpeglism]

haha you're faster than we expected lol! pd they do provide the other kind of torx that has to be tighten/untighten with a bar alongside with the product, but still, I'm kinda leaning towards spider more for your case of usage.

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

To be honest, I’m at a wedding now and it’s soooo much better than the Peak Design in so many ways, especially speed!

[@TheTeejay73]

Ahh I hope you found the spider holster a good upgrade. Best system there is for dual system. Glad your camera survived the fall.

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

Thank you! Yeah it was a good lesson when my camera fell, right away I knew the Peak Design wasn’t for me 🤣

[@mindfulnessmindsquotes]

me too, im sure its expensive

[@sorjames-itsachoice]

Peak Design =The 2 screws … you didn’t know why … they are for when you want more secure and permanent attachment , but good your camera did not break.

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

Thanks

[@SkiiMedia]

I’m so happy to have found you on KZbin! You were the second shooter at my wedding at the Crescent beach club in 2023!

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

Wow such a small world to have found you here! Hope alls well with you and yours!

[@nairbil]

I use the Falcam F38 system, which I really like because it also can be used for tripods in addition to strap, holster, etc.

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

That’s awesome! I keep hearing about the F38 sounds impressive

[@edwardhutt1214]

As I understand it, the Spider plate is designed to be Arca Swiss compatible, and so can also work with tripods

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

@edwardhutt1214 I believe, someone actually told me that they used for care tools like drills etc.

[@a5wagyukeef]

Although I don't use this holster for my camera (yet) I've been using their holsters made for tools, and I'm really glad to see they've expanded. I use their holsters for heavy drills, and it has never failed me ever.

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

I’m so happy to hear you say that! It’s my first time using it, especially on a real job, and it was fantastic!

[@CaliFamous]

I remember first seeing this item and thinking it would be good for ppl with back fatigue. He’s the only one who actually said he likes it better than the Peak out of all the KZbinrs.

[@casualksgaming9717]

Just remember, everyone is going like differently than someone else😊

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

@casualksgaming9717 thanks, made the video to help each person to make a choice for themselves, it’s working for me, and I’m happy I made the change😊

[@mindfulnessmindsquotes]

@@AndreMorganPhotography exactly

[@carloscanizares4699]

I prefer the Spider too, when I had my 5D3. Kneeling down is a lot easier since it defaults to the lens facing back. I know the Capture Clip can be mounted differently, but it’s one less thing to think about. Looking to get it again for my R62, I just bought.

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

@carloscanizares4699 Nice, new cameras are always fun!

[@SoHealthyandClean]

Great review, love your pros and cons, really insightful!

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

Yeah it was a good thing I had the wedding so I could do a proper test, and give you guys a honest feedback.

[@casualksgaming9717]

Likewise!

[@OkwyUgonweze]

I saw this coming 😢 I told you to be very careful. Lots of people noted that too.

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

Yes you did haha But everything works out in my favor, thanks again for your feedback

[@mindfulnessmindsquotes]

lol indeed😊

[@MrBeringela001]

Amazing video, love it!

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

Appreciate it very much!

It’s the osmo pocket 3

[@HarryLewinASR]

I am an amature . When I was young and skinny and had bony hips, the belt mounted Spider camera holsters might have worked for me. Alas, I am no longer skinny and a belt mounted holsters simply pulls my pants down. About 6 years ago I was looking for a way to have easy access to my LX-100, a relatively small but not pocketable camera. The Spider product I tried came with a velcro belt that solved one problem but the camera pad needed a larger camera to work efficiently. Still lonking for something other than cargo pants that works well with pocketable cameras.

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

I have a new video showing the new belt, it’s a lot better, I’m wearing now at a wedding

[@oje101]

How does it hold weight .. says it's rated upto 3.5 lb.. my r7 and rf 70-200mm f2.8 combo weigh is 4 lb.. probably not good with heavier lenses.. have you tried?

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

I’ve used it with my Sony a74 and 135mm lens, and it’s about 4lbs

[@looktothefuture84]

I'm a travel and landscape photographer who's just gone mirrorless. I had the original Spider Pro holster for years but wanted to downsize as the former came affixed to a big, chunky propretary belt. I switched to peak design V3 with the Pro Pad, and even as a landscape photographer, I'm really disappointed. I hate the weight of a FF mirrorless on one strap, so I'm using it on the belt instead. The smoothness of the Spider is sorely missing. The PD's way of attaching is really fiddly and I wish they'd put the release on the front side so I could use my left hand. With the spider pro I could lift the camera and unlock with one hand. The lock is much smaller and hidden away - a professional thief who's familiar with the PD design will have no problem with the PD clip. Feeling secure from opportunist pickpockets is really important for travel. I didn't realise Spider did these little lightweight belt clips now! I'm selling my PD and going back to Spider. The action is just far, far smoother. You never have to even look - by the end of day one it was second nature to me to pull the camera and return it single-handed without looking. It's a much better design!

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

100% I agree, use what works best for you, once you are happy that’s all that matters, thanks for sharing!

[@nycks1]

Great video! Love the Spider setup

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

Yeah thanks, it’s so much better for wedding than the Peak Design

[@mindfulnessmindsquotes]

yeah, does look good

[@GlennVanderbeke]

thanks for sharng andre! grtz from belgium!

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

You are welcome, happy it helped you!

[@errole]

What ig you have a battery grip?

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

I have not used a battery grip in years

[@elvinlawcc]

Nothing is more secure than the good old camera strap!

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

That is true, but there are always other gears to make what you do with your camera better in my opinion.😊

[@stkuj]

I dislike the Spider base plate mount takes up valuable space on the bag. If you are working on speed, it's not all a mounting challenge. If you move to 2 zooms it will help you be much more efficient. You might even want to try the Tamron 35-150.

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

Ok ill take a look at it, to see what you are talking about, just keep in mind, what you might like/enjoy, someone else might not like or enjoy for different reasons.

[@ChrisSallis]

This will irritate you within weeks I just sent back my dual belt upgrade and selling my belt on Ebay. Those pins sticking out under your camera you can't put the camera down flat to take a photo and the left side with the plate is designed that the lens has to face forward. I've just bought the 2 peak designs and the slide strap I think the answer to the loosening is to use the other screws and leave them on a belt permanently

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

Sorry to hear that, I always say, use what works best for you

[@ChrisSallis]

@AndreMorganPhotography very true. Spider is a solid system I'll definitely say that about it very well built.

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

100% I can’t wait to get the belt in a couple days

[@ChrisSallis]

@AndreMorganPhotography I've found a similar belt online for the peak designs so they can sit permanently installed on it so hopefully that works out. Thank you for the heads up on the thumb screws loosening

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

Of course, glad I could help

[@mertkaracayil]

great review thanks for sharing. looking to get it for handheld wedding videography.

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

Nice, let me know how it goes

[@Daguigoz]

I put both of the camera o la the same side (right), one on the side and the other on a lot more in front of me

[@AndreMorganPhotography]

I have a new method that might help you

[@Daguigoz]

@@AndreMorganPhotography yeah? You will have a video? I do 2 of the mirrorless one one my right side, both metal cuz I got the previous version of it. Then I have a Trii Lens on my left side. This way I can have 3-4 lens and 2 bodies on me
