A7 Handstrap

[mindeyes]

Anyone have a handstrap to recommend for the A7? The lug is poorly located because the shuttle button is on the top plate (unlike my NEX 6 where the shuttle button is on the grip).

I end up with the lug between the index finger and the middle finger as being the most comfortable.

Is there some kind of ultra thin, flexible and strong enough strap for the A7? Is there a kind of "string type" strap?

Thanks for ny information.

Looks nice. Do you happen to have a link to what you bought? Want to get the right one that is proven strong enough since the A7 is quite heavy with the 2470. Tks.

+1 for Barton , I still get complimented on mine or asked where did I get mine (braided chrome neck strap) quite often, and it's super comfy with a bit of spring in it to cushion e weight of the camera.

Hi guys, thanks for all the tips. These straps looks nice but does it get in the way when holding the camera because of the position of the lug on the A7 body?

Get an L plate and attach the handstrap to the L plate instead. Or use the tripod mount to mount a sling strap?

once you know how and get hang of it... it wouldn't get in the way... the ring on the Barton straps is manageable..

hi. where do you get the shutter release button? did you modify it to be screwed on or it is just a sticker?

That's the Gariz stick on button..i believe it's slightly larger than the A7r Button.
