Digital camera reviews of National Geographic NG 3030 Adventure Camera Strap (Khaki)

Digital camera Review: A nice strap that solved some issues I have with basic straps.
Summary: 5 Stars

I do a fair bit if nature hiking and photography. On longer outings I normally am wearing a small backpack with a hydration bladder. Conventional neck straps worn over the neck just cause the camera to bounce around uncomfortably as I walk. I tend to wear over the shoulder so I can hold the camera more still as I walk.

The strap has non-slip material to prevent sliding around, and it works well. The khaki color is also a benefit as it doesn't heat up in the mid-day sun. I also tried out removing the strap portion and clipping the ends directly onto the shoulder straps of my backpack, and this makes carrying the camera much more stable than around the neck. You can also clip the ends to each other and form a carry handle. Really, this strap is very versatile and comfortable to wear in the convention manner as the fabric breaths a little on a hot day. I can live without the pockets, but I have used it to store my infrared shutter remote as it fits in perfectly.

I was concerned looking at the photos and reading the description that the brass hardware might be on the cheap side. Turns out it is quite sturdy. The quick-release hooks operate smoothly and easily. The only negative I can give is how the "tails" at the camera-end look kind of ugly and awkward. It's a product of the fast mounting system, but doesn't get in the way of using the camera at all.
