Product Information

This strap's only weakness is that it only works with pro cameras expecting to work with split-rings. It won't work with cameras with slots for straps like the Nikon D40.

Webbing– By webbing, I mean that the strap should have enough space to evenly and comfortably distribute the weight along your body. I never use the strap that might come with a camera.

Specific Types of Leather– There are various types of leather out there, but some are better than others. Just because it’s Italian leather doesn’t mean it’s going to be a nice fit. In fact, there are few Italian leather straps I’ve ever really liked. Vegan leather can also be pretty good depending on the types, pliability, build, etc.

Most users wear a strap at about 27-29 inches – this is the regular length that works for most photographers. If you are significantly taller or shorter than average, then consider looking at straps that are extra long or extra short for a more comfortable fit, but bear in mind that many straps have adjustable length, and these will likely fit the majority of body types.

No junk hanging off the strap or your camera: it's just a strap, a small pad, and ingenious fixation devices on each end. It's a tough strap. No one is going to slip it off your camera without you knowing about it, and likewise, it's a pain if you want to adjust the length. Once you set the length, you leave it alone, and its not budging either. PAST BYLINES: Gear Patrol, PC Mag, Geek.com, Digital Photo Pro, Resource Magazine, Yahoo! News, Yahoo!

It's not a lot of fun trying to break free of the grippy pad as you pull the camera to your eye.

For a tougher strap for a midsized camera, use the regular or smaller UPstrap, covered next. It's indestructible. When you wear it like this, you can grab your camera with your elbow against your waist. Grab and go!

I leave new camera straps wrapped up in their boxes for eventual resale, and buy superior straps to use in the field. Much suppler than other strap material. The strap lays across your hand like a soft shirt; not at all like most other stiffer straps. The Tamrac N25 is a fun strap. I've used the same strap for 20 years and it's held any camera to which its been attached, but it has numerous points of potential failure. It has a lot of places it can break and drop your camera. Still, I use one on my D40 and love it, and as of 2020 my strap is still AOK.
