OP/TECH USA 1001062 Super Classic Strap - Uni Loop (zwart)

very comfortable and like the quality

I already have another Op/Tech strap, the Super Classic Uni-Loop, which I use on a pro DSLR. On the other DSLR's I use Op/Tech wrist straps, which link in with the same clips as the Uni-Loops.So, when I needed a strap for a new pair of binoculars, the choice was fairly simple. This time I went for the Pro-Loop strap. Mainly because the Uni-Loop version isn't easily available in the UK. I spoke to customer services at Op/Tech and apparently, it's a USA only item, the Uni-Loop. So I just happened to get lucky when I bought them, that someone in the UK was selling them. I think it can be ordered in if requested by a couple of distributors if needs be.The Pro Loop is different to the Uni-Loop, because the two ends that stay on the camera are about 9 inches long. On the Uni-Loop the ends are approx. 2 inches long (or less). On a camera, if I remove the strap, then the Uni-Loop is great, because there's hardly anything left to dangle around and get in the way. I decided that for the Binoculars, this didn't matter so much. Plus, there's a trick that you can do with the Pro-Loops, where you remove the strap, but connect the two tails together. This creates a mini strap. Which is how I intend to leave them for most of the time. Because, normally the binoculars are just lying around the house, for looking at birds and deer outside the window, so they are not travelling anywhere. Therefore the big strap is unnecessary. However, it's easily clipped into place if needs be, for going out walking.One point to note if mixing the two systems, is that the actual padded strap part on the Pro-Loop strap, is much shorter than on the Uni-Loop version. You can buy a set of Op/Tech Uni-Loop extension straps to compensate for this. These contain a pair of Uni-Loop connectors, and two 8 inch connector straps, which all connect using the same clip in connectors for speedy connection.All in all a superb system of straps. Very comfortable to wear. They feel very strong, the neoprene padded shoulder pad is nicely padded without being too fancy. It's non-slip is perfect. I'd highly recommend them as a strap for a DSLR or a pair of binoculars.

Finalmente una tracolla per la mia amata Sony a6500 che può dichiararsi degna di questo nome. Ho sempre odiato la tracolla fornita di serie per due ragioni: non è possibile sganciarla velocemente dalla macchina e soprattutto zero imbottitura (provate in estate con collo scoperto che bella sensazione dopo ore di camminata).Per cui dopo un'attenta analisi dei prodotti forniti al momento qui su amazon della categoria sono andato su questo articolo per tre motivi:1) soddisfava i criteri sopra elencati (ha un'imbottitura davvero fantastica)2) i ganci con attacco rapido sono davvero robusti e così anche le fascette che la ancorano alla nostra amata camera3) E' MADE IN USA, finalmente un prodotto che non arriva dalla Cina (non ho nulla contro di loro anzi fanno ottimi prodotti) però finalmente qualcosa in cui non si legge sempre Made in C** o PCR !!! Spero che la fiducia che ripongo nel mio mancato patriottismo americano venga ripagata bene con la durata che mi aspetto lunga!Assolutamente consigliata se cercate un prodotto di qualità per trasportare in sicurezza la vostra camera ma sopratutto non volete il collo diviso in due e avete necessità di staccare la tracolla per montarla su cavalletto o gimbal (come nel mio caso)

Je la cherchais depuis des années car j'ai de plus en plus de mal à porter mon appareil reflex au cou. Je n'aime pas trop la courroie d'origine fournie par Canon. Outre ses couleurs et marquages qui manquent de discrétion la matière est légère, et ne permet pas de longues heures sans sentir une gène dans la nuque. J'étais déjà passée à une courroie de cou Op/Tech avec mon précédent appareil, mais une courroie fixe qui ne permet pas d'ajuster la longueur. Mais en m'achetant un appareil plus lourd équipé d'un zoom conséquent je craignais le portage sur de longues journées de balades photographiques. J'ai essayé un harnais : trop compliqué à enfiler, et pas pratique pour photographier. J'ai essayé le portage de côté via la vis mais l'appareil qui se balance sur la hanche ce n'est vraiment pas possible ! Et j'ai enfin trouvé cette courroie : très bien finie tant au niveau des attaches que du néoprène cousue sur les bords. Elle est surtout d'une belle longueur et réglable, ce qui permet de la porter de travers. En fait c'était LA solution : un portage de travers mais bien maintenu qui permet d'attraper l'appareil aussi rapidement et souvent que par un portage au cou ! La partie néoprène ne suscite pas trop de transpiration en région chaude. J'ai acheté le système de connecteur pour sécuriser et adoucir les attache-rapides, ainsi qu'un jeu de rallonge de courroie pour l'hiver et pouvoir continuer à porter mon appareil de travers, même avec une doudoune. Je recommande cette courroie à tous, femmes ou hommes, qui n'en peuvent plus du port de l'appareil sur le cou et veulent continuer à photographier avec du matériel lourd. "Oublier" son matériel est un luxe formidable !

For years I've put these straps on my cameras. I refuse to use the branded straps. If Nikon wants me to advertise for them they can pay me. :-)The fact is these straps are extremely durable. I've bought more than one strap as I have more than one camera. One of the straps is recently showing slight signs of wear on the foam underside. But I've probably had the strap for10 years with nearly daily use on full size DSLRs.
