Opteka Professional Wrist Grip Strap for Digital and Film SLR Cameras

Opteka Professional Wrist Grip Strap for Digital and Film SLR Cameras by Opteka List Price: $29.95 $8.47 At Amazon on 9-25-2011.

Compatible with all Canon, Nikon, Sony, Olympus, Pentax, and Samsung SLR cameras that feature a standard 1/4"-20 tripod socket Padded professional quality grip strap Designed to stabilize a camera when shooting Alleviates fatigue during extended sessions The Opteka padded camera grip wraps around the hand, and is designed to stabilize a camera or camcorder when shooting, and to alleviate fatigue during extended sessions of photography or videography. Compatible with all Canon, Nikon, Sony, Olympus, Pentax, and Samsung DSLR cameras that feature a standard 1/4"-20 tripod socket . This device is an absolute must-have for any photographer. It allows your hand to completely relax while your hand is at your side, yet still grip the camera with no stress. I use it on my Canon 40D with a large L series lens and it's comfortable enough to carry the camera without a shoulder strap for several hours without tiring. I would never use a professional camera without one of these wrist straps. It's very secure and prevents accidentally dropping the camera while at the same time easing the amount of force necessary to hold or steady the camera. The strap attaches to the right shoulder strap loop on your camera, and has an attachment that screws into the tripod mount on the underside of the camera. Even with the wrist strap connected, there is an additional loop provided so that you can also attach a shoulder strap if desired, though I've never used this feature. Unlike Canon's wrist strap, this unit can be used without the battery pack. A friend recently dropped her camera and did severe damage to it as she wasn't using one of these wrist straps. It's a very inexpensive bit of comfort and insurance that you'll come to love. ------- April 2011 update: I've been using this same Opteka wrist grip for nearly 3 years on my Canon 40D and more recently on a Canon 5D Mark II. It's worked beautifully and is as durable and good looking today as it was when I bought it. I am absolutely delighted with it and have nothing but raves for Opteka. I can walk around for hours holding my heavy camera and Canon's 24-105mm L series lens using only the Opteka grip and have no fatigue whatsoever. I've attached a shoulder strap to the camera's other strap loop and the base of the Opteka grip, and it works great if I need a shoulder strap. Even after 3 years I still consider this item a must have for both professional and amateur photographers.
