Just wondering if all red lettering Neck straps...

are exclusively Pentax.

I have seen a couple and figured they might be pentax users. But do you know if it is exclusive or not?

I have seen several colors available for all brands, some shops sell fake third party straps that have nikon, pentax etc written on them. The most common one I have seen for pentax apart from the current black with red letters, is the old red with white letters.

Doesnt cannon usually write their name in red. I think the easiest to distinguish is the yellow nikon.

I think the question is: if you see someone at a distance with neck-strap with red lettering, is it safe to assume they're In Our Little Club?

while we're on the subject.. why doesn't Pentax offer a higher grade camera strap? i had an old (mid 80's) 2" wide premium camera strap that had a triglide to allow you to adjust the length, and adjusted up to, like, 6 feet or so, so that you could sling it across your body like a camera bag.. loved that strap, and wish i could find something similar that's pentax..

All the Canon straps I've seen are white.
All Nikon straps yellow.

My Canon's strap is blue/gray with a red border, and white text.

My Pentax bag and strap match...so maybe that's their current color scheme. Don't know what Canon's got now...
