BLACKRAPID Camera Left Handed Right Handed Photographers Review

I used to use a Fastfire strap which I really liked! But they don't make them anymore so I had to buy a new one and try this one. It works great! I photograph weddings so make sure to have something light and comfortable! and it does exactly that. it has no problem supporting 5D markiv with 70-200 and flash. and the lock nut on the clamp is a nice touch that makes me feel more secure. but a little annoying to manipulate quickly.

I don't like the neck strap that comes with the cameras. I tried the hand strap which works well for short trips. However, the long days require you to sling the camera over your shoulder at some point. This strap fits the bill. It doesn't slip off my shoulder and can be set up very flexibly. This particular strap is designed to cross the chest, but I actually only use it on one shoulder. I like that it hangs on my waist. It is very easy to take and click photos instantly.

Great strap specially designed for my Olympus Micro 4/3 camera. The straps that go through the eyelets on the side of the camera interfere with some of the camera controls and just make holding the camera impossible. The BlackRapid system uses a tripod hole as an attachment point, leaving you hands free to control the camera as if there were no strap at all. Being able to quickly move the camera from the belt to the capture layer is really cool. You can hang the camera on either shoulder.

Overall I really like the belt. It looks very professional and makes taking pictures a pleasure. Walking will definitely loosen the bolt, so it's probably a good idea to check it fairly often. If you are hiking I would recommend using a leash. Also, just a side note, Lockstar breaks very easily. When snapping, make sure it is perfectly aligned with the TIGHTENED lobster clasp. Also, be careful when using the carabiner to tighten the strap on the camera. BlackRapid provided great customer…

It gets the job done and has a minimalist design. If I didn't find this product overpriced I would have given it 5 stars. The strap, while providing a good fit, wiggles around your shoulder throughout the day unless you purchase a separate BRAD strap. There's my complaint. There are straps that sell for a third of the price, which isn't too far off this product, that come with accessories like a BRAD-like strap and an extra tether. I don't think the material used is much better than the cheaper

Although the quick release buckle is on the back (where someone other than you can open it), this sling is perfect for long trips. I used it for a day trip to Epcot and the Magic Kingdom and it balances the weight of the camera and telephoto lens just perfectly. Made for a very pleasant day. I read other reviews about the quick release buckle and used a zip tie for added security. The tether included in the kit was also added protection and was small enough to not get in the way. I don't think…

. The buckle is a one-handed clip, meaning pranksters or thieves can easily undo the strap behind you. In my case, a thick zip tie and gaff or duct tape solves this problem, as most of us won't solve it very often, if at all. Other questionable details are 2 movable bumper locks. The previous version was easy to unlock and slide in either direction, making one-handed setup quick and smooth. In this version, if you have a smaller camera, the spring-loaded clips must be tensioned, meaning two…

This is a big improvement over the previous harness which was already good. The rubber shoulder pad is key to keeping the strap in place. The clip that attaches to the camera also has a new angled design that makes clipping the camera easier. On my old Blackrapid I made some adjustments to the hook to make it easier to photograph, but in this case it wasn't necessary. The only thing that confuses me is the size of the metal loop on the camera. I have a feeling it could be made a little smaller…

This review is for BlackRapid Breathe Cross Shot. After receiving this camera strap, I don't know why I spent so long looking for alternative camera straps to replace the OEM camera strap. I researched several different camera straps and settled on this one based on the positive online reviews. After trying this strap I wish I had tried replacing my original strap years ago. My only criticism of this harness, like most other sling harnesses, is that it doesn't come with a lanyard for protection
