Review on Lynca Adjustable Hand Grip Straps - Leather Wrist Hand Strap for DSLR Cameras by Mark Bennett

Revainrating 4 out of 5

This is a very nice and comfortable genuine leather grip for my heavy camera.

Love this leather strap/handle. I have the brown and black versions on a Nikon F5. Threading the strap through the camera mount ring and quick release plate was easy enough (I've used similar grips on other cameras over the years). This grip is very comfortable, nice padding for my hand. The leather is stitched for extra durability and prevents it from stretching over time. I adjusted the buckles and shortened or lengthened the strap as needed to allow my hand to easily fit in the grip and comfortably hold the camera while keeping it secure. However, I gave it one star for the cheap Swiss style Arca plastic quick release plate. I replaced it with a metal one (see photo) which made me feel more secure in my grip without breaking the plastic when taking pictures or walking around. The QR removable plate also allowed me to attach a neck strap to it and still easily slide the camera onto the Arca Swiss tripod mount. So yes, this is a good camera grip for me, but it would be great if it came with a metal QR plate instead of a plastic one.

Pros
  • High test scores for grip and durability
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
