Is this a good vest for photography?

It would work depending on how much stuff your have. This is nice and light with lots of pockets outside front and back along and 2 big pockets inside. You could carry some extra lens in the big pockets and there are some hooks on the outside with the ability to hang more hooks or whatever.

The vest could be good for many things including photography, however, after one washing in the washing machine, some of the seems began to come apart. Beware /made in China

I have this vest. I use it for small tools and hardware. I think it would be ideal for photography it has more pockets than you need and is very light to wear. I would reccommend this item

Yes. It has lots of pockets and small compartments.It's also very light weight and could be worn under another shirt or coat.I use mine for photography during long hiking trips and carry everything I could need without a back pack.

That is exactly why I bought it. It costs half of what a "photographer's vest" would cost, but is actually far better. It is light, has more pockets than I can count. I do travel documentaries. I have worn this while shooting in 14 different Mayan sites, throughout most of Europe, on a 29 State shoot last year. I carry lenses, batteries, audio gear. The back pocket is big enough to easily hold either my netbook or my wireless mic reciever/mixer. When going on planes, I load this puppy down as it is an item of clothing, so it doesn't come under the carry-on bag rules. I think it has like 21 pockets. I have 4 or 5 of them now, but I've never torn one up, even while going through the jungles in the Yucatan or chasing down a metro in Paris. BUY IT!!!

I'm about 5'7" and it fits fine. It may go below your waist a little, but this isn't a go running type of vest weight. As long as you're using it for pull-ups, push-ups or something similar you should be fine.

There is a mesh pocket on the back side; it might do for a lightweight plate in a pinch. But I would use a regular plate carrier under this vest. Ditto on checking out the MainePrepper on YouTube.

This vest is good for mild weather only, I wear this with a T-shirt or shirt. Bought this for the ample pockets and it's light weight not for the warmth which it does not provide. Temperature range for me would be 60's and up, hope this helps.

The vest can be fastened tight enough so it shouldn't shift very much. It should work fine.

I can make it long enough to put the camera in my jacket hand pockets. but I prefer to have it just hang freely at a mid-chest position. The configuration of the strap is such that it doesn't swing around a lot. I find that the variations of strap positions make this a very usable accessory.

Traci, I'm a photographer and I use it exactly for that. I usually put on it 11x16 heavy picture frames and canvas. Ypu are not going to regret it

I used this with my D40x. It fit fine, and was airtight, but you need to be careful. You should also be aware that a fair amount of air will be trapped in there with the camera, so if you are snorkeling the bouyancy factor can be annoying.other than that, if you keep the lens and housing from fogging up you can get some really good pictures if the light is good.

Yes. That's what I bought it for. It's a little snug, but the case closes and the camera is not squished.

I think it would work great for paintball (I play paintball) because this vest is so adjustable you can ajust it for length and width so you can have it a bit tight if you want I use it for 3-gun competitions and I'm sprinting and jumping over things all the time during that. So I think it would work well for what you want.

in a word yes, but if it's all you are going to use it for it's total over kill, I use my carrier for a Canon 7D with a 100-400 lens on it, you should consider something more light weight for a (great) point and shoot, the weight of my gear helps keep the carrier in place as well something that light might cause the carrier to be, ummmm, floppy if that makes sense

Yes i bought this vest 4months ago and I love it. I keep my .45 in it and it perfect. If you have a 3point tac sling on your rifle it's kinda in the way but that's my only complaint bout it

I love mine. Fits well and is very handy to use the camera with it. Provides some protection when you are out and about with it. Enjoy.

Absolutely! This is one of the few vests that has flotation material under the dogs chest which helps keep their head above water. Just make sure you get the appropriate size for your dog.

To be honest, I have'nt try it with a life jacket on, but I'm pretty sure it'd fit properly, it's very secure for the gopro camera and it's made of high quality materials. I like so far. Try it and have fun!

I used it for a go pro and a point and shoot Nikon my guess is it will be ok as long as you dont go nutty with the bigger interchangeable lenses its pretty sturdy

I would think so, however it's not padded at all. So by the time you added some sort of padding, it might be a tight squeeze depending upon how large your camera is.
