HoldFast Leather Wrist Strap

Take a look at this leather wrist strap from HoldFast: Hands On: HoldFast Gear Camera Leash Designer Wrist Strap

It looks like it will work really well with the Black Rapid system when you're not using the shoulder strap.

I used to use one your fingers fitted through on an Olympus E1. That was superb.
None of the cameras I have bought recently have a strap lug on the corner of the
battery grip to allow for one of these. God knows why.
Not sure I like that type of strap your looking at.
Looks like a dog lead lol. I can imagine those fastners making a bit of a mess of the
corners of the camera too.

I'm looking for a removable wrist strap that will work with the Black Rapid lug on a K5 with the grip.

Ive seen hand strap grips on Ebay that are fixed Via a plate using the tripod bush and camera eyelet.
Ive been tempted and I still might order one. They are rather cheap too, so I spose prob worth a try.
