Re: Camera Strap
Not exactly what you are asking for, but FWIW... I have used a simple attachment from strapbuddy.com (via BH or Adorama). A simple circular plate with slightly offset slot. Attach plate to camera, strap to slot, other end of strap to left-side lug on camera, and the camera is oriented vertically rather than horizontally. Like you could do on the LX with the front grip extender IIRC. Simple, secure, easy to attach, cheap. Works ok, I have sworn off straps for the time being, will reassemble everything the next time I am in a travel-with-two-cameras mode. stan On Nov 14, 2013, at 2:20 PM, Steve Cottrell wrote: Does anyone use any of the camera straps of the type that don't attach to the normal camera strap mounts - rather they attach to a mechanism, that screws into the tripod mount on the base plate, allowing the camera to be carried upside down over the shoulder?

Re: Camera Strap
Yep. I use a Black Rapid sling style strap. A steel loop screws into the trips hole and a swiveling steel hook connects to it. The hook attaches to a strap by means of a sliding loop. The strap hangs off the opposite shoulder with the camera at your side. You simply lift it to shoot. Works great.

Re: Camera Strap
I love my Luma Loop straps. Unfortunately they don't make them any more (some patent dispute with black rapid I think). I actually use my loop attached to one of the strap rings rather than the tripod screw/QR plate, I find it works better for me. The quick release on the strap is very handy for those times I want to untether it from my shoulder (I also have a camdapter hand strap/QR plate on there for such occasions). Luma have a new Cinch strap, but I've not tried it so can't really comment. I seems to operate quite differently. I always found the actual blackrapids somewhat bulkier, but others swear by them. Either way, 'd never go back to a neckstrap now.. just seems so clunky and awkward. - Peter -Original Message- From: Steve Cottrell Sent: Friday, November 15, 2013 5:50 AM To: pentax list Subject: Camera Strap Does anyone use any of the camera straps of the type that don't attach to the normal camera strap mounts - rather they attach to a mechanism, that screws into the tripod mount on the base plate, allowing the camera to be carried upside down over the shoulder?

Re: Camera Strap
Thanks for all the great replies. Actually not for me, rather for Stef. Bob W bequeathed him a Lumaloop strap some time ago, like this one: http://photo.it-enquirer.com/files/2011/06/lumaloop.jpg ...but the quick release mech - although undoubtedly strong - causes slight worry with the weight of an EOS-1DmIIn and 16-35/4 and sometimes even a 420EX flash - that's some weight! Situation resolved: the manfrotto QR plate (already part of his kit) screwed into the tripod mount on the baseplate also has a D-rind attached, so onto that clips a Lowepro Deluxe Shoulder Strap that I donated: http://slrhut.co.uk/content/products-accessories/8547_1.jpg http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y117/40zDictator/Camera-6.jpg Appreciate the input folks, thanks again.

We tend to brag about our military accomplishments much less than other countries. Hi Chris! Please don't me angry. Sorry to say that I didn't knew that part of History that William told, but many thanks to him as he gave me a website where I learnt the details. Yes, surely, it is a matter to brag about the military accomplishment. Cheers, Ayash. - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.

Re: camera strap
- Original Message - From: £ukasz Kacperczyk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Any thoughts on using a metal camera strap? The previous owner of my LX used a metal dog chain on the camera. The damage it did to the corners was significant. The camera, when I got it, had been used very little and the rest was excellent and verified by Pentax.

Re: Camera strap for Z-series
Saw a cool looking strap for the Z-series camera on Yahoo Auctions here in Japan... was wondering how thick the strap is? All they seem to offer out here nowadays is a really meek and mild 'Pentax' labeled strap... And yes, that is an orange sitting next to the strap! http://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/28505792 There are more Pentax straps in Japan than in anywhere else. You can check them out at http://www.mapcamera.com/index02.html. I might email you the picture if you can't find them. regards, Alan Chan _ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com. This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
