Need Recommendations for Camera Strap

[vonlichenstein]

how much u got it? which model u brought? where u got it? mind share?

i got fleeced (knowingly). i bought the camo version for $32. couldn't tahan already. besides, how much cheaper could it get any time soon? i bought from Crumpler (wheelock) after scouting TK photo, John 3:16, Crumpler (Raffles) and do miscellaneous shopping along the way. heh. the bag is another matter altogether, since its so much more expensive at the botiques as compared to john 3:16

Not sure bout TK. But I'm pretty sure John 3:16 doesn't carry Crumpler. ;P

You must be kidding. I bought my 5 and 6 million dollar home from John.

How sure are you?

Lately they haven't simply because they haven't been getting stock.

Samuel orders it in from crumpler, and sells it cheaper than the botiques do. He usually has it 2 days after you order it. at least, thats my experience.

Yup, problem is they cannot sell something of which no stock has been coming in, namely the 5 and 6 million home bags.

What about 7 million dollar home bag and how much is he selling it?

eh? the 6 million dollar home is in stock. i know the 5 isn't though. hmmm. crumpler's in a mess right now.

7 million dollar home, Samuel (John 3:16, in case you don't know) quoted me $155, which is quite a bit cheaper than at the botique. BUT its out of stock in singapore. if you do find anywhere selling it PM ME!!!!!!! i'm considering buying it, if i don't get the brazillion dollar home (which is damn ex and i'm afraid its too big

I'm using industry disgrace camouflaged design for my 450D with Kit lens or 55 to 250mm
and sling across my chest still not too bad.

But when change to 100mm F2.8 lens.
I felt the weight over my shoulder and is not very comfortable but still OK...

But I have tried Optech Strap, can really tell the diff between this 2 straps.
Still Crumpler look cool and nice... But Overall I felt Optech still better.

But Since I already got my crumpler strap...No choice just use it first....:cry:

 

[Wzierbovsky]

I swear by the Op/Tech strap. It really does make a difference.

Here ya go:

I bought mine on eBay; cost around SGD31 or so I think. Should be about the same price or maybe cheaper in Singapore.

 

[windforce]

have u tried the ez comfort or the pro loop or the other ones? any idea whether which is the most comfortable?

 

[santaclaus2100]

Got my Optech Pro Loop from Cathay-P for $31.

Feels a lot better than the original Canon. Couldn't tahan anymore, as I was shooting for about 3 hours the other day and the damn strap was cutting into my neck.

The neoprene from the Optech, feels a lot "lighter".

 

[fabianaino]

If you are getting the optech ones, spent a few dollars more to get the "non-slip" version ones. They really make difference when you have the cam over the shoulder. =)

I have the non slip version for my telepo lens pouch and my camera. A larger version one for my camera bag. =) :thumbsup:

 

[windforce]

ok prolly gonna get one soon also. $$$ haha
