JJC GB-1 Adjustable Photography Utility Belt, Wrist Waistband, Accessory, Speed Belt for Carrying Gear Bag Case, Lens Pouch, Flash Accessories, D-Rings, Breathable 3D Mesh

Needed a way to carry a couple of the JJC Lens Pouches and a PD Capture Clip in a belted configuration. This worked out fine except I had to slightly modify the length to go around my 'pizza locker'. I have a 44' wait and the specified waist was up to 46". Fully let out it fit but just barely. I didn't like the fact that the 2 ends had to be let out all the way so I took one end off and modified it by having a friend with a heavy duty sewing machine add a length of 2" webbing strap I had onto the loose end of the original belt. Once that was completed, I reinstalled the end hardware and now I have a decent amount of length to do adjustments and niether end it up tight to the end of the strap. In the attached photo (I used it in my review of the PD Capture Clip), you can see the belt around my svelte waist :o It fits well, easily adjusted for tightness and is comfortable to wear. With 2 JJC lens pouches attached as well as the PD PRO PAD and Capture Clip, everything rides ok and is easy to access simply by rotating the belt around my waist. A logistical problem easily solved for $16.

I like to hike but the heavier lenses and my Canon 7D weigh quite a bit. This belt helps me carry them without putting undo pressure on my neck and shoulders. I use a normal camera strap around the neck but use the blue elastic band on the belt to hold the lens and camera body's weight. Also, I have less "bouncing" as I move through the woods while my camera is handy if I need it quickly. A simple yet effective product, and at a great price!

This is excellent for carrying a DSLR (that's what I use the canvas strap part for. The tighter strap goes over the lens, and the looser, top strap goes over the camera body so it's doubly secured. I also recommend you get a tripod mount D-ring, screw it into the tripod hole on the bottom of your camera, then connect a leash from that to one of the D-rings on the belt. That way your DSLR will be triply-secured. The D-ring hoops are great for clipping things on to. I carry an extra lens or two and a little bag of lens cleaners etc. My only complaint is that the body strap for the camera holder comes loose easily, but it's easy to tie off and this wouldn't prevent me from recommending this useful belt.

My lens case attaches to the loops easily. I have a couple of older items intended to go on a regular belt and they won’t fit, but this accomplished what I needed. The price is definitely right.

A year and a half ago my car was hit in an auto collision. Many surgeries and procedures later and I am still experiencing severe neck and back issues. As an avid hiker and amateur wildlife photographer I worried that would never be able to handle a telephoto lens again. I used to hold my lenses in a backpack and/or around my neck. This just wasn’t possible for me anymore pending a neck surgery. After ordering a lens case from the same company they advertised this belt. I figured I try it out and worst case scenario I would return it. I was a little skeptical that it said “frequently returned” but it had free returns so I figured I had nothing to lose. I am happy to say this works great for me. I am able to carry my lenses, camera, and tripod. I wear it at my waist just above my hips. I am able to quickly and efficiently change lenses, batteries, and memory cards.

It seemed to be well made but it advertised that it expanded to a 46 inch waste line. I tried to expand it and my wife did too and it only expanded to 36 inches. Since I have a 40 inch waste it did not fit me. I returned it and ordered a similar belt from another supplier and it fits me fine.

I like the way this JJC GB-1 Adjustable Photography Utility Belt works with several JCC lens pouches I also purchased. Instead of carrying a camera bag for a hike and two bodies with lenses on my shoulders, I put one pouch on the belt, selecting one based on the extra lens I want to carry and carry only one camera body most of the time (still using two bodies with lenses for events where a near and far zoom are needed, rapidly such as weddings and sporting events). I may select one pouch slightly larger than the lens to hold filters or spare batteries at the bottom of the pouch. I have used the pouches to carry a flash, camcorder, or ThinkWare Snap-G 4K Gimbal camera (mostly for video). Gimbaled cameras are a little difficult to carry around and I do not like the camera flopping around when not powered up, they do not lend themselves well to being carried by a neckstrap. This belt and pouch solution works well, and I place the gimbal camera, lens down so I just grab the base to remove it from the pouch.

Excelent product for photography and video. I recommend 5 star
