Camera Strap Recommendations

Posted On 31 July 2010

I’m not liking the strap that came with my Rebel T2i, so I’m looking for an aftermarket solution. (It’s a little itchy and not really long enough.) Does anyone have any suggestions? I would prefer something that goes over neck and shoulder, and that allows me to quickdraw for pictures.

Comments go!

I’m not a pro, but I use something that looks a lot like this: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/53517-REG/Tamrac_N4511_N_45_Universal_Quick_Release.html

I got it years ago to bear the weight of a medium format camera, and have since switched it to whichever current camera I’m using because it’s so comfortable.

When you say “quickdraw”, I think of the R-Strap: http://www.blackrapid.com/product/camera-strap/rs-7/

FWIW, I have an unholy love of ThinkTank products and cannot recommend them enough. Schillers carries a lot of their stuff, and they sell used straps, too, so you should probably take your T2i over there some afternoon and play around. They’ll let you try a bunch of stuff.

And if you go there around lunchtime, I can take an hour off work!
