Review on Peak Design Slide Lite Mirrorless Camera Strap - Black by Jeff Warne

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice and safe but with imperfections

Peak Design make quality products. The materials, the build, the feel of the strap is great. I don't worry about my camera falling or not being securely fastened with this strap. However, it has a few design flaws that are a little puzzling. First: metal clasps, buckles that fix the length of the strap: if you plan to wear the camera around your neck (like a regular strap), the buckles should be right on your neck. This means that in extreme weather (very hot or very cold) you have a piece of metal around your neck. This is the best way to carry the camera on the shoulder or the strap (and they are more comfortable, the strap slides perfectly over the shoulder strap for carrying (on one side) and is very well fixed on the other side when you put it on the shoulder). carries shoulder). Second: The material of the strap is so hard that it forms loops right next to the camera. They were mentioned by other reviewers but I thought they were exaggerating (they aren't). As you pull the camera up, these loops become larger and more regular. face, if not secured somehow (I found a workaround using plastic zip ties (see photo), I will be swapping them out for velcro versions that are the same color as the strap and are more comfortable).
