Originally posted by Cerebum OK, while we are talking accessories, what about straps? I have cheap non Pentax neck straps but I have been wondering about sling straps lately. The issue I have is they are more strap to stuff in your bag but I am beginning to wonder
Oh! Another fun topic
I used an Op-Tech for several years and have good things to say about those. The best comfort around, certainly. But big and somewhat cumbersome.
Then I switched to Peak Design, still very comfortable although maybe not as much as Op-Tech. However the quick-release system and quick adjustment buckles make it so much more convenient, it can go from neck strap to sling to no strap in moments.
That system made me realize I don't like neck straps at all. These days I rarely use one. Instead I use a custom hand strap made with Peak Design anchors to stabilize the camera in my hand, and a Peak Design Capture Clip on my bag to attach the camera (I have several of those! One on each bag, essentially). That's a much better way to carry a camera.
