USA GEAR TrueSHOT Camera Strap

I have more camera straps than I can count and this by far is my favorate! I have a bad back and often struggle with the weight of my camera and lenses but this strap has solved that, I used it for 4 hours yesterday and have never had such a comfortable strap. The design is lovely I always like a strap that’s a bit different as I hate the branded straps I find them pretentious (no offence intended) the pockets are very useful, the battery pocket is secured by Velcro making it safe, the memory card slot isn’t secured by anything which is one thing I don’t like because as a Tog I’m often in positions which could cause the memory card to slip out so this is one feature I don’t use, I will however put a spare card in the battery slot. The quick release is useful and feels secure. All in all this is a great product at a price that is unbelievable for the comfort and quality you receive. I will be buying more in different designs.

My order was received very quickly. This is my third USA Gear Neck Strap and for me they are the best strap available. Comfortable around the neck that seems to ease the load and the straps are well made. The various colours and patterns are attractive and the four accessory pockets are really useful. The release clips are sturdy but are not to stiff to unclip with ease. Well recommended as far as I'm concerned. Up-date. I now have five of these straps for my Nikons and Panasonic Lumix cameras. Can't fault them at all. Depending on the camera, the metal rings aren't always needed and to those reviewers who say they won't fit their cameras are talking rubbish.

I have an Op/Tech strap for my heavy full frame DSLR but wanted something not quite so bulky for a CSC. This looked perfect and, to be fair, it is a pretty good strap. Not as bulky as the Op/Tech but comfortable and with the added attraction of the small pockets to hold additional batteries etc. I confess I haven't put anything in the pockets on the strap yet, relying instead on zipped trouser or jacket pockets for peace of mind. One slight irritation when compared with the Op/Tech becomes apparent when you disconnect the main part of the strap from the short flying leads that are attached to the camera. With the Op/Tech strap I have, when you do this you can connect the two ends of the shorter flying leads together, which is more useful that it sounds. When you put the camera on a tripod, you can disconnect the main strap and fasten the two ends of the flying leads together under the tripod head for a bit of extra security. If you've ever accidentally undone a quick release fitting and watched in horror while your expensive camera and lens fall to the ground you'll understand why this is useful with the Op/Tech. But unfortunately the flying leads on this USA Gear strap both have male clip-buckles on them meaning you can't fasten them together. It's more of an irritation than a deal breaker, but worth bearing in mind if you're used to Op/Tech straps.

I got it after seeing a similar strap on a videographer's kit at a travel expo. Not sure it is the same brand but I use this with a Canon 5D MkIII for video. Its flexible. comfortable and practical. Flexibility - One minute the camera can be around my neck when I am capturing subjects on the move and the next onto a tripod for more controlled shots. The sturdy plastic clips allow for quick detachment of the camera so the straps don't get in the way and verse vice. Comfy - the neoprene material whilst robust is suitably padded with elasticity that keeps the camera safe but does not dig into your neck or shoulder whilst weight bearing. Practical - the strap can be used to provides some stability to the camera whilst shooting run and gun by bracing the extended arms allowing focus and live view monitoring. A couple handy pockets for CF and SD cards which Velcro shut. The brand name of the camera is not advertised ensuring that both oner and camera become too noticeable in dodgy neighbourhoods. Thoroughly recommended.

This has the feeling of a quality camera strap - long enough to wear across the body, strong enough for a large DSLR, battery grip and large lens. It's soft and spongey enough to be comfortable and the foam lining means it is fairly non-slip as well. The fabric has a certain amount of 'stretch' which takes a little getting used to as it may give the impression of being a bit insecure. I love the integral pockets which are perfect for spare batteries and data cards. All in all, it does everything you would want of a camera strap.

Bought as a present for a camera enthusiast. Clear instructions of how to use included on the packaging. Very well made, plenty of pockets for accessories. Fully adjustable, comfortable to wear, lightweight, but not at all flimsy. Would highly recommend.

Well made, easy to fit and detach, brighter than your typical strap. Useful pockets for cards and batteries.

Its very comfortable when worn around the neck. Unfortunately when worn on the shoulder it has a tendency to slip off as the material is very smooth. It needs a non slip finish in the centre of the strap where it rests on the shoulder. Very useful to have a spare battery compartment on the strap.

I haven't owned this strap very long, but so far I like it a lot. It doesn't dig into my neck as much as the standard Nikon strap did and is quite comfortable. The pockets for extra batteries, etc. are very handy. I also like the quick release buckles. It is a neoprene type material and therefore a bit stretchy. My camera with telephoto lens is just over 3lbs so time will tell how the strap holds up. The straps that connect to the rings on the camera aren't quite as high quality as the Nikon strap that came with the camera so it makes me a bit nervous as I have a lot of $ invested in my camera gear but so far it seems to be holding the weight of the camera well. As is now, I would recommend this strap to others. I really hope it holds up as it is nice and a great bargain.

Schöner Tragegurt und durch die Breite sehr bequem zu tragen,passend zur Tasche;) Durch die Klippverschlüsse schnell zu lösen,falls die Kamera mal im Makrobereich oder Bodennähe gebraucht wird.Auch schön noch die kleinen Taschen am Gurt für Kleinkram/Tabletten oder Kugelschreiber.Und auch der Gurt ist bestens verarbeitet und liegt gut am Hals an.

Estoy encantada con esta correa. El neopreno le da cierta elasticidad que el resto de correas no tienen y que al final del día hace que el cuello se resienta. .el estampado... genial. Fue el que escogí.

Got this for my shooting partner and she LOVES it! Makes carrying the 5D3 with a 24-70mm version 2 lens around all day at a wedding quite comfortable. Recommend!

Cette lanière est bien pratique: en effet, elle est longue - mais on peut la raccourcir, elle est "déclipsable" pour ne pas gêner, par exemple lorsque l'appareil photo est placé sur un trépied; la petite pochette près des clips gauche et droit me permettent d'y glisser 1 carte mémoire de réserve. Certes, il a fallu quelques jours à température d'intérieur pour que le néoprène neuf à la livraison s'assouplisse, mais sa manipulation quasi quotidienne continue de l'assouplir. Je recommande ce produit très confortable à porter en tour de cou ou éventuellement en bandoulière sur l'épaule.
