Hand Grip Strap

[NJGuy3]

I'm wondering if anyone knows of a hand strap that I could purchase which would allow me to still utilize my existing neck strap for my Canon T1i. Basically, I'd like to have both connected to my camera at the same time. If there is such a hand strap, any info would much be appreciated. Thanks!

What type of camera strap are you currently using? Does it attach via the usual attachments on each side of the camera or does it utilize the tripod mount?

The official Canon strap requires the use of the battery grip to secure the strap to the bottom of the camera. I have it and use it all the time.

I'm pretty sure the opteka strap available on Amazon allows you to do this. If you look at the customer uploaded photos, there is one that has a diagram that shows how to attach both... Hope this helps!

I'm currently using the neck strap that came with my T1i.

Thanks...will search for it. Would you happen to have a link to this item?

Definitely need a battery grip to add a neck strap and hand strap at the same time.

So a company came out with an alternative for those who do not have or use a battery grip: http://www.camdapter.com/home.html
