Just got my Spider Holster today and was super excited to open it up and get a feel of it… First impressions, this thing is heavy duty. I thought the price ($109.95) seemed to be kinda high but after getting a feel of the metal that was used to make this thing I can justify the price.
While watching this video, keep in mind that I did not read the instructions (a very small booklet included) while installing the Spider Holster. It was pretty intuitive. Everything you need to use and install the Spider Holster is included. I connected the clamp to the included belt but I plan to use my own leather belt since I’m not using a full frame / heavy camera.
This is a two part video and I intend to put out the second part very soon. This video will have a real would use segment so we can all get a feel of what this thing can handle, i.e. walking, running, climbing … etc.
Let me know what devices you would like me to demo, I’ll do my best to accommodate. See you guys soon!

Pretty awesome Rob! Can you post some specs for this like max weight and junk.
Hi Rob,
Loved your video! Can’t help but notice that you’ve installed your Spider Plate backwards. Make sure to read the instruction booklet and watch the videos on http://www.spiderholster.com for proper use of the Spider System.
Wow. You run a photography website and completed an “instructional” video and installed the freakin’ thing BACKWARDS. Gotta love the internet, where everyone’s an authority – no matter how incompetent they may be.
To all watching this install/demo video, I would like to address a mistake in the installation video my wife and I made that Jeff and Spider Holster so colorfully point out. The plate was installed Backwards. For the product to work properly, don’t do this. Thanks!
I just want to say that in the video you did say you did it without the instructions so no doubt there could have been errors
