There is a recent influx of photography equipment designed to capture images on the go, but Justin Olsen's creation strides ahead of the competition. The Go Pro may conveniently strap onto a person's head to record their adventurous endeavors, while other devices such as the Video Camera Ski Goggles are there to capture tricky situations, but the quality of those recording devices definitely cannot beat Justin Olsen's chest-strapped DSLR.
Based in Utah, Justin Olsen created this unique rig for his mountain biking escapades. Although he experimented at first with just slipping his camera around his neck or in his jacket, Olsen soon realized he needed something more sturdy, so he sewed his camera to a vest that harnessed around his back.
