CCS Hub - 10 degree

10 degree hub

Works great for my 100 to 400 zoom lense

Connecting hub

Lost one of the two that I owned and had to purchase another to have access to both of my cameras on a photo hike. I know that the quality is there, but I found the price to be excessive. I do like the product, don’t get me wrong, I am also perturbed with myself that I lost the one I am replacing. I have the first harness offered years ago and use it often.

Would be 5 stars BUT…

This fixes a major design flaw in the standard Cotton carrier system if you have a setup with more than a nifty 50 lens or if you have a battery grip. Without this your gear is going to bounce badly on any terrain other than flat ground. Here’s where it loses 2 stars… there’s absolutely ZERO reason for Cotton not to use this hub for ALL sales other than the get to charge 4x what it’s actually worth to solve their own design problem. I can carry an R5 Mark II without a battery grip along with an RF16 lens with this 10° hub without any issues. I never use the 0° hub so there isn’t any reason not to just move all sales to include the 10° hub other than profit incentives. I love my 2 Cotton carriers, or rather my girlfriend & I love them (she absconded with both my first one haha), but having to fork out $ to fix a design flaw on top of a $130 carrier is really annoying. Do better Cotton.
