Title: V Hasselblad-like strap connectors
Post by: uaiomex on January 24, 2011, 11:56:19 pm

Visit petapixel.com and see: Concept Design of a Leica R10 camera.
The best thing on the R10 render was the V Hasselblad-like strap connectors. With these connectors one can take-off/put-on the strap in a split second. These connectors are unsurpassed after 30 years or more. I always wondered why Canon or other dslr maker has not produced them yet now that DSLR’s are now tripoded so often.

Having used both, the Rollei TLR strap ends were even better.

I've never used a Rollei  :(
Thanks for mention it. Wouldn't it be great to have these kind on the dslr's now that we use them so much on tripods?
