Holster-style carrying solutions for photographers are extremely popular especially with those shooters wanting to keep their hands free at all times while ensuring their camera is ready for action, and for this reason, Spider Holster has just released the Black Widow Camera Holster, an accessory that offers entry-level DSLR camera users comfort and security combined with quick-draw access.

By moving the camera to the photographer’s hip, the Holster concept eliminates neck, shoulder and back strain as well as the discomfort caused by a cameras dangling from traditional straps.

In addition to providing a comfortable carrying solution, the Black Widow also offers added peace of mind because, when the camera is slid into the holster, the Black Widow’s built-in locking mechanism makes an audible click so the photographer knows the camera is properly positioned and secure.

The automatic locking-style provides added security for rigorous situations and a theft deterrent for crowded spaces, yet the spring-loaded release switch enables the photographer to maintain quick-access at all times to their camera.

While the Black Widow easily threads onto any leather belt, Spider Holster is also offering its own Black Widow Belt.

A favorite accessory among female photographers, the Holster belt is designed for unparalleled all-day comfort and matches the Black Widow’s sleek appeal.

Also available as an accessory, the Black Widow Plate positions the camera to hang upside down so the valuable lens is not pointed at the ground or jutting out from the body, while also ensuring that any quick release plate can be used to mate with the user’s own tripod.

The Spider Holster Black Widow holster system is compatible with any camera and will be available for an MSRP of $55, which should make it quite popular even with the photographers on a rather tight budget, and there are many of them out there these days.
