I was at the expo too last week and actually put this holster thing on and tried it. Everytime I tried to lift the camera out of the holster it got stuck and the side of the belt came up too. I do own the dual strap system (Jessica was also at the show) and I absolutely LOVE it! Perfect for me as I am on the small size and it was so convenient having two cameras at my side, one with a prime lens and one with a zoom. But, of course, this is just my opinion. Maybe the guys will have better luck with the lift out of the holster, but it looks like it would be really easy to lose the camera.....

I was also at the show, and though I didn't try it on, I was resting on some chairs in front of their booth. The look of confusion and frustration on peoples faces seemed to tell it all. The main guy demoing it had a 1D w/ 70-200 on it. You could tell it was heavy, because he would keep switching it from his hips and his hands. I just don't like the idea of my hips supporting such heavy load all day. Their solution is to click a button and switch the side, but I wasn't impressed still. I also saw Jessica at the Adorama booth, and after she explained her dual strap, and I saw it up close. I remember some threads before talking about how her one had a better locking mechanism than the BR, so I bought one on the spot after talking to her. I've used it only once, and so far it's been pretty nice to use (although I wished there was a easier way to adjust it just right to your body). I'd say skip the holster, and look for the dual strap instead.
