For me, the strap should be a drop guard and do not use the tripod adapter bottom of the camera since I DSLR wear on a belt SunSniper normally.
Secures the Joby wrist strap in dark gray my white Pentax Kx (DSLR) with large lenses. A Joby Wrist Strap in "green" is now included on my big DSLR, a Pentax K-5. Battery grip.
What are the "hanging" for the cameras at the Wrist Strap:
The Pentax Kx is a very compact (beginner) DSLR, the Pentax K-5, however, a DSLR from the semi-professional league. K-5 is among the major DSLR, but rather more compact / portable but brings even without lens and battery grip on 800gr on the scale. In normal use with battery grip and lens are already scarce as quickly 2kg on the Waagenuhr.
Attaching:
Attaching the Wrist Strap is done quite easily and quickly. Anyone who is struggling to be the tip given it at Youtube a corresponding video are (by the manufacturer?) That explains how to run the tape and threading.
Tip my part: With a crochet hook it comes very easy to perform below the belt.
The Kx has a dock for attaching the strap, the K-5 is a triangular ring. When bridge attaching the wrist strap is a little easier because the triangular ring "shaky" is holding. But for that, the strap and nothing is nothing earth-shattering. Did I have just mentioned.
Handling / wear:
In a DSLR the Wrist Strap no Tagegurt is where the camera dangles on his wrist. That would quickly unpleasant. With compact and small bridge camera but that is quite conceivable.
In a DSLR the Wrist Strap is rather seen as a "safety line". So she can not go into free fall as one moves itself when shooting or sailing for example over the railing stops at. And just for the strap is intended for me.
The belt material is comfortable and the strap takes place quickly and safely in the event of the case. The Y-piece is movable and allows the pinch.
When the strap (mounted) does not want to use, it is convenient and not to interfere with me on the thumb joint / Hand outer surface exposed.
You can also go through just stuck his hand, has the full backup and only a "thin" strap in the palm. Very pleasant.
If one wishes to him no one can use the wrist strap can be mounted and front rum pull with the hand strap through the lens. So it does not dangle around.
Processing:
Clean and well. Point.
What strikes me in my case of the two straps which the wrist strap on my green Wrist Strap little bigger than the gray. If you have thick hands, that may well the difference between going and not going.
Conclusion:
For the price of less than 15 euros a piece of the wrist strap is not necessarily cheap but still worth a recommendation. Not for nothing, I bought the green Wrist Strap for K-5 also.
Last but not least:
I am quick prediction of career paths and therefore also something more text in a "Otto-Normal-consumer". ;)
