Camera strap advice

[DVC BLT]

Just got back from a 7 day trip. I brought my new T4i with the 18-135 lens. Its not heavy, but definitively not light either.

Anyway - I used my new Luma cinch camera strap, and I have to say it was amazing. It was very comfortable to use in the parks. The tightening function makes it very easy to secure the camera in tight spaces or on rides, you know its tight against you and the camera barely moves. The way the strap works, the camera stays against you.

I had to move around quite a bit with 2 kids under 5, alot of picking up and putting down bags/children. The camera didnt scratch once. The strap is made of very high quality components, even the medal pieces are machined so not to scratch the camera.

Anyway - just wanted to let people know about it as I couldnt find it in stores, I think its made by a very small company in Oregon.

Good luck.

I had a similar setup last month. 7 days and a T4i. I alternated between the 18-135stm lens and a sigma f2.8 17-50 almost twice as heavy.

I used a CarrySpeed FS-Pro and loved it. Soooo comfy. I wore my camera 10-15 hours every day. Only took it off for meals and a handful of rides like RnRC, ToT, SM. ME, Splash and of course Kali Rapids.
