All,
After searching this board for some suggestions, I have narrowed my search down to one of two straps:
BlackRapid Curve, or
BlackRapid Metro
I visited a local camera shop where I intend to purchase my selection and I found I did not like the straps and slings from other manufacturers.
So herein lies the question: What is the difference between the two slings? According to one source, the Metro is for lighter equipment and use and the Curve is meant for more professional or "prosumer" uses (heavier cameras, more frequent use, among other things).
Has anyone purchased one or both and can give a practical description of them.
BTW, I will need to purchase the Burt extender as neither sling is long enough to put the camera where I want it to be while not in use. I believe both slings accept the extender.
Thanks in advance!
