Hi, I have been looking for a camera harness that will also hold my binoculars. I have found 2 that I like and would be suitable. One is from UK Highland Photography,

http://www.ukhighland.co.uk/trekking-safari-camera-harness.html

The other is Severn Valley Leisure,

http://www.7vl.co.uk/‎

I have emailed Highland Photography, but no reply and I now can't access Severn Valley website. Is there anyone who has a phone number or anyway I may be able to contact them. Although I am in Aus. I would have the harness sent to my partner in the UK who would then post it to me. I have an injury and these would be just the right style for my needs.

If not do any UHH's know of any other company that does one in same style that will hold both camera and binoculars.

My apologies if you can't click on links as I don"t know how to do that.

Thanks for your help
Anne

Thank you, nearly what I want but the dual harness hangs them down the side, I need them at the front.

Anne - I have emailed Highland Photography, included a link to this thread of yours, and simply mentioned that they are missing a potential sales opportunity by not responding to your emails. Did you tell them you have a UK address to which the item could be sent? Couldn't find a tel number - typical of some internet sites !

Hopefully they might find your email and respond. Or you could try again !

Looks like Severn Valley leisure no longer exists !

Thank you for doing that. Sure I told them I had UK address as I read they don't post outside the UK. Hate it when they don't have a phone number. Have just ordered this one that dirtpusher found, from B&H http://www.amazon.com/Trekking-12312-Safari-Camera-Binoculars/dp/B002DWSD66 looks quite good. It would be nice if Highland Photography did reply to me as I would order one for my partner in the UK from them.

Thank you again.
Anne

I've never heard of Uk Highland before and there is no bricks and mortar address on the site. Avoid them.


Severn Valley Leisure were only set up as a company in May of this year. If their website is no longer working then it doesn't auger well.

Beat me to it Bret, I was just about to suggest the same strap. Half the price of that Highland model too.

There seems to be something strange about both the above; I cannot find either in lists of uk photo dealers and have failed to contact either.
If you could send me the full names of the two products, I would try to find a uk supplier.
