Speed Shooter Harness

For those of you who want to take action telephoto photography to the next level, check out www.speed-shooter.com. They make a harness that allows you to use the MonoGimbal/Monopod combination in a way that anchors it to your body instead of the ground, substantially increasing your ability to fluidly track moving subjects. Introverts beware; the unusual presentation of this setup might draw some attention, but hey...if it works, it works... and it definitely works.

If you are truly interested in getting the best telephoto action shots possible, this combo will lead to shots that would be very difficult to obtain otherwise.

The "Arca-Swiss Style" Quick-Release Geometry The "Arca-Swiss Style" Quick-Release Geometry refers to the open-cavity dovetail quick-release system developed decades ago by Arca-Swiss for use with their Monoball ball heads and large format cameras. After the extreme popularity of the Arca-Swiss B-1 ball head in the 1990s, other companies began manufacturing custom camera-body and lens plates using this geometry. Since then, this geometry has become the industry standard for high-end tripod heads (particularly in the nature photography industry). The figure below shows the basic dimensions of the dovetail used in this system:

The Wimberley Head Version II, Sidekick, and other clamps use this quick-release system, so any lens that you wish to connect to our heads must be equipped with an Arca-Swiss style lens plate or replacement foot. Manufacturers that use the Arca-Swiss Style Quick-Release Geometry include:
