Also a large Velcro pad on the back hold the ends together, there are also 2 cords, one either side of main pad with a cord lock, these can be attached to parts of the head itself.
Distance around the 3 legs at the top start from approx. 11"-15"or 28-38 cm, so any size starting from this or larger is fine. As in photos it shows that this shoulder pad can be wrapped around only 2 legs if needed, this is to quickly get the tripod on to the ground to take photos if wildlife suddenly appear, or it can be wrapped around the 3 legs for total support. The tongue can also be doubled up and tucked in when in use when the 3 legs are open; this doubles up at the top of the pad.
I use a Canon 500 F4 myself and this does really work nicely and sits at a good angle for support. Any questions please ask
