It looks like this would hold the camera/binos fairly high on the chest. Is there an extension available to get them to hang a bit lower?

I'm 5' 6" and use the harness for my SLR camera. It means that the camera lens rides just above my waist, which I think is good. I have the harness at the shortest length so you could lengthen them easily.

We were concerned about this also but found the straps are quite adjustable when you have them on and allow a great amount of freedom to raise and lower

For me a hits a little too low, but I have a small frame. I think you would be okay with it without the extension. :)

You are correct about it being a bit high. I'm not aware of an extension. The manufacturer may have one. I haven't felt the need to see if there is one.

I work from a wheelchair, so for me, high is good, I have fiddled the harness & connector to vary height as well

I don't know about an extension, but I have one of these harnesses, and it doesn't hang too high for me. I prefer something that fits to my chest so that it doesn't swing around as I walk. I have no diffulty getting the distance I need to get the camera in front of my face.

Nope, the little lug for the strap on the camera hits one of the case mounting points. I guess you could remove the lug or modify the case.

Using the standard length of chain most bags come with, this stand would be too short. You could try to place the bag higher, but most likely end up with stability issues. Sadly a case where being taller doesn't help, hope that helps.

It does not. I just strap the tripod (monopod, actually) bag through the carrying handle and let it hang. Inelegant, perhaps, but effective.

You can just let it hang against the side of the camera/support it with a bit of tape. It doesn't have to stay in the hot shoe.

on each leg pull the clip out sideways and that you can raise ow lower the height . i am 5'8" and at it's highest is perfect for me to stand up to look through camera . i like the sturdy platform it provides my camera . right price , good sturdy product and what more can one ask for ?

Nop... legs are flexible, but you can't make the tripod taller than it is...

My rack is fully loaded with media and it holds it all without complaint. I have strapped the rack to prevent anyone knocking it over. I do not think tilting the rack forward will work since the media needs to be level or nearly level.

Yes - it's designed to be attached to a *tripod* or perhaps you'd use a Mono-pod, as I have occasionally. There's a ZOOM "Bundle" available that includes a *tripod*, however you may want to supplant it with yet another TALL tripod sometimes.

Yes. There's a threaded fitting on the bottom. However, the instructions state that you need an adapter (purchased separately, naturally) in order to fit it to a tripod. There's a little drawing showing a short extender that raises the binocs up off the tripod.

Unfortunately, the way it holds the camera, I wouldn't recommend it for that. It holds the top of the camera against you and the camera tends to swing a lot.

You could by a rail rig to mount to your camera which raises it out of the way of the knob but what I've been doing is just pulling out the tightening knob and adjusting its postiin on the screw. It's hard to explain in words but you just pull out on the knob and adjust it postion on the screw until it's tight. Lemme know if that helps

I am 5' 8" tall and I have the strap shortened to have the camera hang on my hip. I have 12"s of excess strap which would relate to having the camera hang 6"s lower. The strap is used with a Canon 5D mark II. I also removed the camera mount plate and went with a cast D ring. I hope this comment helps.

This bag really needs to be slung off of your shoulder or set down to get your gear out. Since the zipped part is in the far back, you'd have to be a contortionist to reach back there and accomplish anything. Fortunately, for me, the bag can stand upright (as long as your tripod's not strapped to it...), and you can yank out the camera with lens fairly quickly. Because of the amount of space in this bag, it's going to be heavy loaded down, and I'd consider it a travel bag, not a casual photog's daily.

Since it's a monopod and you have to hold it somewhere to keep it steady, you might as well hold on to the camera anyway. But I would not carry it with the camera screwed on - seems risky.

There is a 1/4 - 20 thread for a tripod on the bottom of the case. You might be able to use that

Put the strap on first then it works great, my camera hangs low below the bottom of my day packs. I clip my back pack chest strap under the camera strap.
