OP/TECH 1501372 Pro Loop Strap - Black

This strap is just what I needed for lugging my D700 + battery pack + heavy lens around my neck. It's got a nice, wide strap with rubberised dots on the reverse of it, so it stays put and doesn't slip around on your neck, or slip off your shoulder, if that's where you're carrying it. The loops which fasten to the camera are very robust, and it's finished extremely well. The neck piece is slightly elastic, and gives slightly when you walk, which will give the camera a more cushioned ride while taking some of the jarring out of your neck & shoulder. Highly recommended. Can be fitted (or removed) in seconds, and the main shoulder piece can be detached from the eye loops on the camera easily in case you need to squeeze it all into a small camera bag and don;t want the shoulder strap jammed in there with it.

Strap is well made and is strong enough for a heavy camera and long lens. But it is just a bit short for me with no length adjustment

I’ve used Op/Tech straps on cameras and binoculars for over 20 years. They’re comfortable, secure, easy to fit and long lasting. The wide padding is particularly good at spreading the weight of a camera and larger lens, and with binoculars can be worn for many hours. My latest purchase appears to be as well made as the first many years ago.

I now have three of these straps. I love them as the clipped parts make them so adaptable. If carrying just one camera I use the optech neoprene strap which is lovely and comfy, if though using two cameras or a long day with one I will use my multi camera harness. I unclipped the optech middle section then use the two end sections linked together as a safety strap with my harness. This makes it much sturdier and more reliable than some of the specialist safety straps which are often quite flimsy imho. I buy a new one of these straps for every camera body I buy now! The only change I would make would be to have looped ends for tidiness rather than the strap and plastic stopper thing that need to be looped/threaded through etc.

Great good and comfortable

Does exactly what it claims to do. A heavily loaded DSLR (heavy lens, flash unit) can be carried comfortably for long periods. The more walking you do wearing a heavy camera, the more you'll appreciate this strap -- it comes into its own when you're moving around a lot. The strap is easy to adjust, easy to fit, quick to adjust and comfortable to wear. It's much more subtle visually than the traps supplied with new, major-brand DSLRs; I'd have preferred it without OP/TECH's own branding but that's a minor quibble. Recommended. Update, Jan 2012 after a year of use: light scratches on one of the metal lugs of my camera body (small enough for me not to know they existed) caused one of the loops of this strap to fail badly. The loop on the other side was as new. Replacement loops are available and the the lug's scratches can be sanded off but do check before you fit the strap that nothing will affect the elastic material used to make the OP/TECH loop connectors. (Previous straps -- different manufacturers -- were unaffected.)

Bought as a replacement for a missing strap for a second hand D600. Better than the original in that it is slightly more comfortable. Also good that there is no logo: why advertise that you have an expensive Nikon? Fractionally shorter, but not enough to make it worth getting extension straps. I suppose the catches might give way, but only if you fiddle with them -- I don't think it is worth getting the velcro safety addons. Overall a cheap and effective alternative to the original -- a bit less good looking but nicer to wear.

I was looking for a less conspicuous strap, one without the camera manufacturer's brand pasted all over it for the sake of travelling and safety. I had also heard the benefits of the weight spreading neoprene strap, and I must say I can feel a great deal of difference from the standard strap that comes with the camera. Even with a heavy set up such as my Canon 5D Mark II, 24-104 f/4L and a flash it does not cut into your neck and bounce about when walking due to the elastic material the strap is made out of. I would highly recommend this product.

Used as a substitute for an older OPTECH strap in this series. Easier to install compared to earlier OPTECH offerings. Comfort level identical.

C'est ma seconde sangle identique tellement elle est confortable. Et la première est toujours impeccable c'est juste que j'ai maintenant deux boitiers

Ho deciso di sostituire la tracolla tradizionale perché, soprattutto in viaggio, era per me davvero scomoda ed insopportabile. Pensavo che qualunque altra tracolla, facendo ricadere tutto il peso del corpo macchina (io uso Pentax) e dell'obiettivo sul collo, fosse comunque troppo fastidiosa. Ho quindi valutato sistemi alternativi per trasportare la reflex con la priorità di tenerla sempre sotto controllo e a "portata di scatto". Mi ero orientato quindi su alternative tipo B-Grip, BlackRapid e simili; tuttavia il costo elevato di questi prodotti e le numerose recensioni positive online di questa tracolla Optech, mi hanno portato ad acquistarla per provarla. L'ho utilizzata in modo intensivo quest'estate in viaggio per 21 giorni e, dopo ore di utilizzo anche continuativo, devo dire che sono rimasto piacevolmente sorpreso. La fascia che si posiziona sul collo, sia per il materiale (neoprene), sia per la larghezza ben superiore rispetto alle tradizionali, sia anche per la forma che si adatta perfettamente a qualunque collo, rende la tracolla MOLTO meno fastidiosa al contatto diretto con la pelle e le permette di non sfregare con essa grazie a dei particolari "pallini" che la tengono ben salda in posizione.Tutto questo, inoltre, fornisce una leggera elasticità all'intero sistema che permette di ridurre drasticamente il peso percepito e anche, in parte, il tipico effetto "pendolo". II sistema di sgancio rapido tipico della OpTech ne permette l'utilizzo veloce con numerosi altri prodotti della stessa marca (come ad esempio la strap simile a blackrapid) ed è molto comoda in caso di uso con il cavalletto (potrete così evitare di avere la fastidiosa tracolla che pende). Va detto che si tratta pur sempre di una tracolla e quindi comunque presenta i classici limiti di questo sistema. Ad esempio l'effetto pendolo, seppur ridotto, è sempre presente e quindi permette solo parzialmente movimenti veloci o comunque specifici (ad esempio non è particolarmente comoda per una salita/discesa in montagna); inoltre il peso continua a gravare per intero sul collo e con corpi macchina e/o obiettivi molto pesanti sicuramente esistono soluzioni migliori. Dal punto di vista dei materiali il prodotto è di ottima fattura, evidentemente curato nei particolari e dà una sensazione di solidità assoluta (non a caso OP/Tech è sinonimo di qualità negli USA). In conclusione visto il prezzo, credo sia un acquisto consigliato sia a tutti coloro i quali vogliano sostituire la propria tracolla originale che a chi abbia esigenze più professionali e magari possa essere interessato ad espandere i propri accessori con altri della Op/Tech, mantenendo un comodo standard di "agganci rapidi".

カメラ本体とストラップが簡単に脱着できます。 特に、ストラップが汚れた、濡れた場合や、カメラを収納する際、簡単に外せます。 とても良い商品と思います。

Me encanta la compatibilidad entre los diversos productos de la marca así como su comodidad
