Title: highly recommended strap manufacturer
Post by: fredjeang on February 24, 2012, 12:39:42 pm

Hi,

I normally don't like nor use straps.
But those are really good. (specially with heavy camera-lenses)
I've discovered this brand recently. With a 1,5 kg lens I don't feel it.

Have a look if you didn't know it. It's a USA familly business.
This is serious gear.

been using them for years very high quality and long enough to stretch your arms out to read the back w/o reading glasses for us with aging eyes

Agreed. Best strap I've ever used.

The beauty of owning a m43 system is that the only strap I need is a wrist strap :D

But yeah, I've been meaning to get an Upstrap for my camera bag for years.

Looks good.  curious how 0.01% can be non-american in something that just doesn't have that many ingredients.

Oh yeah, for years: Pelican cases. And I have a Chevrolet dealer just down my building, there are many Corvettes. (but the old stingray with the red interior, the new models are boring).
