I really like the angle given by the K4 (and similar) harness mounts.

So thought I'd make one - but rather than use a straight carbon rod on an angle away from my back, use an S-bend. Thus it is still set behind but can be rotated to get a side cross view - rear quarter panel shot :/
Thus the grub screw retains the pole but also allow it to be turned thus swinging camera to the side.


I think it may be too far back and too high so I'm wondering what people think of the geometry of it all.....?
Obviously erred on the side of longer cos it can always be shortened


Oh yeah and looking for ideas for attaching the safety lanyard to camera end and the harness end - the clips pictured won't last in salt water and are too big. Need a stainless clip or carabiner but only about 2 - 3cm long. Can't find anything ....
