Review on Black OP/TECH USA Pro ๐Ÿ“ท Loop Strap for Camera Equipment - 1501372 by Erika Brown

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very convenient and flexible system, with one caveat.

The width (weight distribution) and ergonomic shape of this strap struck me as much more comfortable than the same company's "Super Classic Strap". Unfortunately, unlike the "Super Classic Strap", the connectors that attach the Pro Loop Strap to the camera do not separate from the "Extensions". That way, if you want to put the camera on a tripod or just want to hold it in your hand without a strap, you still have two 12-inch straps hanging around after the neck strap is removed. (You can join the ends together, but that's only slightly better.) The workaround is to purchase a separate set of extensions (OP/TECH USA 1301052) and connectors (OP/TECH USA 1301062 Uni-Loop - System). Odd that the company doesn't sell the padded part of the strap separately, so you can mix and match that way and save some money and space in your "useful in a parallel universe" tote. Note: The width and density of the Uni-Loop connectors may not fit through the grommets of some cameras. I've attached them to Panasonic and Sony bodies without much difficulty. In closing, I would like to add that I have complete confidence in the strength and longevity of this system.

Pros
  • Fingers crossed
Cons
  • I won't say anything
