Originally posted by micromacro What is better ergonomically? I'm thinking about wrist strap for small canon, and maybe hand strap for pentax, or wrist strap for both?
I haven't used the Joby, but I'm not a fan of hand straps in general -- I have tried a few. With a hand strap tight enough to feel secure, I have trouble reaching the wheels and buttons easily. If I loosen the hand strap just enough to use the controls, then it doesn't feel secure enough for me.
I shoot using a wrist strap 90%+ of the time. I use the Op/Tech modular system with quick-disconnects, and the wrist strap goes onto the right-hand strap lug, and the Op/Tech sling strap connects onto the left-hand strap lug. When I'm not using the sling, I disconnect it and there's just a short pigtail on the left strap lug.
