Review on ๐ŸŽ’ BlackRapid Backpack Camera Sling - Reliable Design for DSLR, SLR, and Mirrorless Cameras - Enhancing SEO by Justin Buck

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The best camera strap for a backpack!

After much research and testing I chose this harness for a 27 mile hike last summer. I like how the strap distributes the weight of the camera between the two shoulder straps of the backpack without transferring the entire weight of the camera to just one shoulder. Protect your camera. The path is dusty and muddy. Sometimes it rains. And you have to be very careful not to hit the camera while walking through limbs or putting on or taking off your backpack. I have cases to cover the camera, but none of them work with the way the black Rapid strap connects to the camera, which is through the tripod mount on the bottom of the camera. Black Rapid should offer a soft case to work with this system, then that would be perfect. However, the harness system is by far the best I've tried. As far as I know, none of the other harness systems come with camera bags. It was an expensive strap, but it supported the camera perfectly. I have my fingers crossed that Black Rapid will make a compatible case someday in the future.
