    Great work indeed, however the key here will be still the adjustability, as no matter how perfectly ergonomically might be designed if it does not offer the Horizontal alignment user to user, then its just a good looking shoulder Pad... ;)

    Thank you all for the kind words and comments.
    As far as the price , I am not even sure if I'll go into a production with this.
    Carbon fiber is great , but not easy and not cheap to produce.
    Same applies to quality leather work and consistency.
    Lots of things to consider
    I guess it would be under $300 bracket, but it really is to early to estimate.
    I'll have it with me at the NAB if anybody is interested let me know, if I gather enough people I may do a batch or two.

IDK if anyone else cares about that but it's definitely important to me personally.

    Aside from that it looks fantastic.
    Justin thanks for the comment
    I have to agree, it would be nice to make ground support and I though about it.
    however, It changes the shape and the design drastically.
    Rubber is a good idea, but it would not secure or balance camera unattended.
    It would only protect the edges from chipping.

    Albert, with a piece of art like that, you got to think about putting a adjustable swivel in there!!
