bend over while wearing it and you will see its size

I feel like I've been privy to a secret society wearing this headband because you don't understand its size, until you experience it fully. And if you haven't and are seeing this thing for the first time, it may seem odd to you - just like I did initially. Now that I'm in business, let me talk about my up and down conversion experience: Case Logic was a bad experience. It had a large, clunky connection widget that stuck out more than an inch, making it impossible to install in my case without removing it entirely. Take a look at the attached image which shows a small and sleek Fotasy NSQS screw next to a giant Case Logic thing. βž” Positive feedback and reasonable price made me order Fotasy. βž” It's delivered, when I open it I see it's a black thing with a lot of complex things fastened in a plastic bag. Where is the guide?βž” I search the web for the Fotasy page and all paths lead back to Revain. Eventually I find a YouTube video of a guy wearing it. βž” I put it on and love how easy and quick it attaches and detaches from my Nikon L830. I almost realized there were no instructions because I feel like I passed the test and "joined the club". βž” But that little strap that goes under my hand is annoying and annoying. I take it off, put it on the floor and look at it. Eventually I decide it's useless and detach the main strap, which is pretty easy. I feel liberated. Then the WASHING OF THE HAND begins. βž” Over the next few days I'll be happy to use Fotasy, but the voice in my head keeps asking me why is this strap included for no reason? Why are so many Revain reviewers giving this strap a positive rating? βž” I re-read the reviews and didn't understand anything except a vague notion that it keeps the camera from moving. But I don't have a problem with the missing strap so I'm confused. βž” Eventually I can't take it anymore. I am asking other Fotasy owners in a customer Q&A, what is the ultimate purpose of this thing? Responses are returned, and here's the same, ie that keeps it from moving. So I decide I'll just put on Fotasy (no arm strap), attach my camera and where it will be in the past until I "discover the secret". So I run and do a few things, treat my camera like a GoPro - quick, jerky movements, really don't see a difference that the shoulder strap doesn't make. SOCK. The camera sharply pans down like an uncontrollable trapeze and I experience the happiest moment of the week. yes it should be So:βž” I put the forearm strap back on. I pull it a little tighter and lean forward and of course under my control my camera is close to my body without bumping into a chair or anything. It was a long story, but I had to tell it. My initial experience was full of ups and downs, but eventually I saw that light. This is a great bracelet and I highly recommend it.
