About this deal

His editorial work has been featured in publications all over the world, and his commercial clients include brands such as Nike, Apple, Adobe and Red Bull. However, I don’t notice it nowadays, and I’ll use the capture for all lenses on the camera (though the largest/heaviest I have is the 70-200). Choose a strap with a quick-release system, like those from Peak Design, and you can quickly switch between a hand strap and a shoulder strap as your needs change. An in-depth review of the Peak Design Capture clip is available, but here’s the TLDR version: This V3 version of the Capture Clip is a considerable improvement on previous versions, due mainly to the huge reduction in size.

If you’re in a hurry and need a quick solution without reading all the details, you can’t go wrong with the Peak Design Slide Lite strap. Whilst it’s tempting to look a this skinny strap and assume it’s only good for small point-and-shoot cameras, that would be underselling by some margin. Aside from the slick functionality of the dual adjustment buckles, the Slide has two other major things going for it.Borrowed from the firearms industry, the QD system is an excellent way to attach and detach a camera strap, but it does require that you either already own a camera plate that has a QD socket, or you purchase a QD adapter like the RRS B2-FABN Micro clamp. As you can see in the photo, I set this up for the Cecilia leather strap during this test, but this is something I have been doing for many years on the Thing Tank Strap and an old Op-Tech strap.

All of our cameras are also refurbished and serviced, which includes new light seals, clean interiors, and lubricated mechanisms where necessary. That said, you could always split the strap in two if that was an issue on a particular day, and then just use each half like a regular shoulder strap that’s a little easier to remove between shots. But it’s almost impossible to concentrate enough to read anything with the constant hyper active video advertisements going on. The upstrap isn't going to drop your camera, if anything, its going to drop you if you get it caught on something. The Leash is small enough to stuff into a tiny pocket, and they you can simply forget it’s there until that moment when you think “darn, I wish I had a shoulder strap” “oh wait!Also, when you see special forces people using the same QD system to put straps on machine guns, you have to figure that they don’t want to accidentally drop an automatic weapon in the heat of the moment. While a shoulder strap has two mounting points, a sling has just one single mounting point on the camera, and both ends of the strap converge into that one point. Ingenious design that allows the strap to be attached and removed immediately without tools and without scratching the camera. This “Classic” version is great for smaller mirrorless cameras, but if you’re using a larger DSLR then it’s well worth spending the extra few dollars for the aforementioned Pro Loop version with its wider strap. After this period any faulty equipment will be sent to an authorized Nikon repair centre for repair under warranty.

Both straps boast incredible versatility and ease of use, ensuring your Nikon camera is secure and ready for any challenges that come your way. No one is going to slip it off your camera without you knowing about it, and likewise, it's a pain if you want to adjust the length. Any strap that uses the tripod connection is out, as I leave an L-bracket, or at least a tripod plate on my cameras at all times. The shoulder strap, such as the one that comes with your camera is actually not bad if you use it properly. Five sizes available: 90cm – (35 1/2″), 100cm – (39 3/8″), 110cm – (43 5/16″), 120cm – (47 1/4″) and 130cm – (51 1/5″).Of course when wearing it it adds some security preventing slips and falls of any sorts but if you hang the camera down it will swing like crazy, and it doesn’t make any sense to me (maybe I’m to picky). If you were moving faster for some reason, or perhaps crossing rough terrain, this might be of more use. What is the point in having a bulky shoulder strap if you constantly reach into a shoulder bag or backpack to pull out the camera for each shot? I’ve had the pleasure of using Hawkesmill’s Westminster strap on my Leica M7 over the last six months and love the craftsmanship, soft leather and detailing.

The Horween tannery in Chicago was founded in 1905 and is one of the most well-respected tanneries in the world. I bought two, (me plus wife) for our gorilla trekking trip to the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, Uganda in 2019.Keep in mind that anyone can view public collections - they may also appear in recommendations and other places. The result is that when you detach the strap, you’re left with a lot of ‘stuff’ still stuck to the bottom of your camera. The Peak Design Leash, with dual strap adjusters to quickly shorten or lengthen the strap from either end. Contrast this to the simple LEICA 14312 strap above, which won't drop your camera unless at least two things fail at once, and on which there are only two buckles and two places with stitching.
