LEOFOTOSP-01 Push Button Quick Detach Modular Tripod Strap, Left/Right Handed, Nylon Webbing

I use this strap for carrying my camera with a 200-600 mm lens attached. Very easy to attach to the Leofoto lens mount with the quick release button.

I was using another sling that I had purchased on Amazon to carry my camera, grip, and large lens. I never really liked the way the sling attached to the lens foot, and was constantly trying different attachments on the lens foot to make it agreeable. I also purchased the Leofoto lens foot for my Sony FE 200-600 zoom, and wanted to try this strap with the ‘magpul’ connection. This setup is so much easier and secure! I added a safety tether as well, but this strap is really well made, and can be used for a variety of other uses, like as a tripod strap, etc. I like that it has some weight to it, as once I put my rig on a tripod, I can leave the strap on without it sliding off my shoulder.

This upgrade has been a great addition to my heavy camera. I use it with a very lightweight Arca-Swiss plate, which is also compatible with my 3-way geared head whenever I need it. Additionally, I’ve found it useful with my gimbal. (I’m still contemplating buying a SmallRig grip for increased comfort.)

When using a long lens I don't want to use the camera's strap wile hanging a five pound lens off the front, potentially warping the lens mount, especially with mirrorless cameras. Instead I use this strap attached to the lens. You need plates and L-plates that have the quick-release mount built in. Most the Really Right Stuff plates I've used are set up to use this type of strap.

The QD connectors are great, smooth, well fittingDoes not operate as a “sling” as they don’t slide up the strap like the Black Rapid

Very well made. Works perfectly.

I have the original Magpul strap but I liked other Leofoto gear (mini tripod) so I thought I'd give the Leofoto strap a try. I used it trouble-free for months, but this weekend on a simple walk I heard the most awful sound and turned to see my Sony A1 and 100-400 laying on the concrete. The strap had been connected to a Kirk QD lens plate that was firmly mounted to the Sony 100-400 lens, and the strap let go of the plate, allowing the camera and lens to crash to the ground. At first I was surprised and assumed that I had failed to fully engage the QD connector, and I blamed myself. But when I picked the camera up and firmly inserted the straps QD connector firmly into the QD receiver onthe lens plate, I was shocked to see that with a moderate tug, I could pull the camera/lens right off of the connector. I grabbed my Magpul strap when I got home and tried the same thing on the camera found that it held firm. I'm not a big patron of Magpul as it is a firearms company, but I will be using their straps, NOT Leofoto's. I now face an expensive repair bill as my lens sustained some minor damage on the camera mount plate and it is on it's way to a Sony service center for repair.

Be careful of the magpul assembly that attaches to the Leofoto foot. The screw came out, the assembly fell apart. Luckily I was alert enough to prevent camera from hitting the pavement. SONY A1, VG-C4EM Vertical Grip and Sony FE 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS Lens.I will probably add some lite thread locker to the screws before using again.
