Recent PostThe perfect camera strap? I may how found it! (well someone else found it first)I know this is off topic bit, but we all (well most of us) use straps on our cameras. Last week while in Hong Kong a participant in my No Jet Lag Photo Workshop I was introduced to a near perfect camera strap. It is not often I get excited over something as trivial as a camera strap, but I have been using the Domke 1" Gripper Strap well over half of my life on my bodies and I don’t do well with change………so to switch something as a trivial strap is huge for me. The new straps are the PacSafe CarrySafe 100 straps. What makes them so great? They are slash-proof, so when you are out and about on the streets a thief can’t walk up behind you, slash your strap (it happens more often than you think) and steal your camera in a split-second. These straps can also be clipped on to a table leg, or a chair back while you are eating dinner and they can’t be cut and walked off with. The slim, light weight, flexible design is great. I had never liked any strap with a pad before, but this straps pad stays out of the way and takes some of the load off which is fantastic! I wrote the strap up on my blog,http://www.flyingwithfish.com , in detail. This entry also has photos of the strap and the strap side by side with the popular classic, Domke 1" Gripper.
