prowithlin Camera Strap with Safety Tether Mounting Plate for DSLR SLR Camera

Let me share with you my experience with a product I'm now using with my d750 and I'm very happy with. This is a harness which replaced the previous one . The old one was around £5 from eBay and had one single btw very annoying clip. Well it broke after 2 weeks. I was lucky that my cam survived.Then I decided to get a more secure one from Amazon it was about £20. It has a lot better built quality. Padded bit is a lot thicker, has a quick release more sturdy clip and the main feature is the added strap which I can connect directly to the camera so if the main clip fails this second one can save it. The only thing I added was a small clip so this additional safety strap can disconnect from the camera more easily. When I have the harness on I slide the safety strap through the main clip which will hold these to together. ( so it's not going to hang on its own - looks bad :D ) - than attach the main clip tho the cam bottom - and finally the added clip on the safety strap goes on the cam body. The camera is safe and can freely slide to your eye when you want to shoot within a secand then safely rest on your side.Best £20 spent!Hope some of you will find it helpful ✌️😊🌞📷

I am impressed with my Prowithlin camera strap particularly at the price, I think it is excellent value for money. I use it with my Nikon D7500 camera and Tamron160-600 G2 lens, I found it very easy to fit and use. I do switch from using the camera handheld to tripod mounted, I attach the main strap to the lens via the Arca Swiss mount and the the safety tether to the camera. My only slight niggle is that the tether is not quick release from the camera, I accept that you can detach it from the strap fairly easy but this leaves the tether dangling around and is not ideal. There are fortunately a number of options that can be purchased to resolve this but for me if it was designed into the product it would turn it in my opinion from a really very good item to a superb one.

What I found was the normal straps become very heavy on the neck especially when to change the lens. This doesn't affect the neck as it sits on the shoulder. What else I like I can wear a jacket and it now becomes safe from someone trying to steal the camera. As the straps are connected under the arm. but doesn't impair the use of the camera. My partners only gripe is that it hits her thigh when we walk together. So, I tell her to swap sides.

I bought this shoulder strap as I was struggling to lug around a camera with a heavy lens attached and being a lady, neck straps aren't great. It took a few minutes to adjust the strap to the correct length to suit my personal carry position/ height preference but once set up what a difference. Very comfortable to wear with such good weight distribution I to didn't feel like I was carrying round a heavy camera setup. The side strap helps keep the main strap in place so helps with comfort and support. None of the usual back pain or sore shoulder that I usually get. So easy to go from slung position to taking pictures. Overall this is one of the best purchases I've made.

Looks very sturdy and well made, like another reviewer has said can be tricky to put on depending on what you are wearing. Once on again depending on what you are wearing it can be tricky to pull round and snap a picture. I am glad to wear it over my shoulder as opposed to having it around my neckI didn't like the small carabiner clip so bought bigger ones, the smaller one is to fussy when trying to clip it on or remove it, am not marking it down for thatOverall would recommend, very comfy to wear, will certainly be using it when we climb Snowdon end of AugustUpdateHave reduced the rating from 5 to 3.While ascending Snowdon, the plate which connects to the camera and strap managed to unscrew itself, thankfully the tether was attached, it just swung in front of me. Had to refasten, am more cautious nowAnother observation - While the strap plate is attached screwed to the camera, I also have a quick release plate screwed, when I mounted the camera to my tripod and tilted it for portrait shots the plates unscrewed themselves, had to remove both plates and just mount the tripod quick release plate. Very frustratingWhile it's only a small screw it needs some kind of locking mechanism, really bad design

Fits well on the camera

It took me some time to figure out how to wear this strap. I realised that the under arm part of the strap was threaded incorrectly. (With the strap over my right shoulder the little under arm straps front and back were pointing to the left, they should point right....) Once I rethreaded things it was pretty plain sailing. I then realised that it would not be easy to remove the strap from the camera if I wanted to swap to something else. (Wrist strap etc.) So I invested in som "Temlum Tiny SF Aluminum Carabiners" which are available on this site. I now have the strap set up to clip onto my camera as per the photo attached. This also means I can leave my L bracket on the camera so can easily use the tripod if needed. I have to say the strap is very comfortable to wear. All told pretty happy with this purchase.

Purchased this as using the Canon 6D MkII with a heavy lens can be a little u comfortable after a while, and this relieves the pressure nicelyIt can be a little fiddly to setup at first, but once you get the hang of it, it gets a lot easier.It is very comfortable to wear for a prolonged period of time, and the thick padded part seems to stay surprisingly cool.It feels high quality and is super easy to adjust, and having the quick release clip is very convenient.The plate that attaches to the camera also has a tripod mounting point, so whist out and about it’s quick to be able to go from strap to tripod / monopod.Pros- comfortable- tripod mount available- super easy quick release- easily adjustableCons- a little fiddly the first time
