That looks cool. I don't wear belts normally,  but I suppose I could work 
something out.

Thanks for the  report.

heavy.)

I was working a big beer  festival this past weekend.  I brought the K7 
with 16-50 along to take  happy snaps while working.

To my surprise, when I got there I was told  I'd be wearing a radio as 
well.  The damned cord to the earpiece kept  tangling up in my camera strap.  
Completely unworkable.

Finally, I  overcame the "geekiness factor", reached into my camera bag and 
pulled out The  Clip.  Screwed the plates down over my belt and snapped the 
camera into the  clip.

For the rest of the afternoon (from 1pm until 8:30) I had that  camera 
right there on my hip.  Whenever I saw a photo opportunity, I just  pulled the 
camera off, took my shot, and snapped it back.

Three different  people stopped me to ask what the hell it was, and how 
could they get  one.

Final verdict: Absolutely WONDERFUL for this kind of event.   Rock-solid, 
easy to use, and incredibly handy.  Also geeky as hell, which  is either a 
positive or a negative depending on your perspective.

Here's  a photo of the device in  action:

It  never gave me a minutes' pause, even when I was scaling a ladder to 
take shots  from the roof of the brewery.  The thing is DAMNED solid!

If anyone  cares to see the shots I took at this event, there is a gallery  
here:
