Some questions about the Neckstrape...~~

[exorcist]

I think my current neckstrape is not ok for me because it is so narrow that I will feel painful when I hang my camera for a long while.

Therefore I decide to buy a new wide neckstrape. The questions are:

1. Normally, how much does a general wide neckstrape cost?

2. Where can I find some cheap neckstrapes except CP?

Thank you for your kind reply.

for camera neckstraps, i think CP and AP are the only outlets. i'm highly recommend the Op/Tech neckstraps (esp the thick deluxe one). it's very comfortable, and when you don't need the strap, it's detachable, leaving behind only a small strap which i use as a handstrap.

so quick and kind reply!

what's the price of your recommended straps? costly? :embrass:

Thank you!

just wondering if A70 can put the neckstrap?
dun seems to have 2 holes to connect the neckstrap

fwah, a70 is so light, you don't need a neckstrap... isn't the handstrap included in the package enough?

my friend just got the optech strap from CP for $25. i'm using it too. much better than the original strap.

i prefer to hang the cam round my neck n not bother abt it
to keep on carrying the cam oso quite a bother although i noe it's damn light
so in another words..u saying the A70 cannot use a neckstrap eh??

Just came back home from CP, bought the OpTech strap for $20/-. Not very many left, hurry down if you want one.

Incidentally, those who are interested in the Eagle Creek strap for bags, Sports Connection at Funan Centre have it. Comes in 2 sizes, I just bought the larger contoured one for $16/-.

Happy Buying :bsmilie:

sunnyday, you want handsfree operation?

you could, i think the camera loaded with batteries is light enough that one of those handphone carrying neckstraps can do the trick. but make sure you don't do a bungee cord trick/move on it...

 

[sunnyday]

thanks for the suggestion
i oso considering to improvise a self made strap just for my A70
or if not..i just get a neckstrap n connect both ends to the same hole
