The Andy Cotton story I worked as a special effects supervisor in the film industry for over 26 years. My specialty was designing physical effects: crashing cars, people hanging from buildings, that sort of thing. The rules were simple, and the only constant was 100% functionality and reliability. The KISS principle (Keep it simple, stupid) was de rigueur. People's lives were at stake; there was no room for error. Later, as a professional landscape photographer, I couldn't find any product that met my need to carry my camera in a comfortable, safe and accessible way. Sure, there were bags, shoulder straps, belt clips and all sorts of shiny objects. But all were "toys" designed by designers, not photographers. Nothing allowed me to carry my camera comfortably, safely and with quick accessibility. My years of design experience in the film industry were put to good use when I set about designing the system I needed. It had to be simple, with no springs or moving parts. Nothing that could fail, jam or break. Made from top-quality materials, it had to work and be absolutely reliable in all situations. It had to offer comfort and accessibility to enhance my photographic experience. Five years later, from the enthusiastic feedback of satisfied customers all over the world, I think I've got it right. Simple, functional, high-quality: Cotton camera carrying systems.

This is the same 10-degree hub that comes with the Cotton Carrier harness.The base is stamped with and arrow. One mounts the hub with the arrow facing "forward" so that the camera hangs correctly in the harness.The core of the hub is "keyed" such that the mounted camera is rotated 90-degrees to remove the camera from the harness; preventing accidental release of the camera. Having to manipulate the camera 90-degress for removal can be a bit cumbersome, but you'll appreciate the safety margin when sitting, rock climbing or caving.The hubs do have a tendency to come loose after only a few hours of use. One should carry the Allen wrench with them.

I lost the plate and bought this new one. However, I could not find any plate without the slanted angle. According to Cotton Carrier's explanation about this slanted design is to keep the lens close to the chest to avoid banging against the chest. However, such slanting makes it tougher to put the camera on to the hub because I have to push the lens against my chest in order to slide the plate into the slot on the hub. I prefer the original design.
