Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Nikon Camera Holding Strap
Customer Review: OK for the money, but flawed
Summary: 3 Stars
For the money, this is fine. It's reasonably comfortable and much better than nothing. You really can carry (say) a D300 with a zoom lens for hours without fatigue.
Now, the downsides:
1. The pad is too short and leaves the strap itself in contact with the top of the hand, just where you need the padding the most.
2. The base doesn't lock to the body, relying on friction to stop it rotating.
3. Forget about getting good results with a tripod. The base makes poor contact with the tripod head and because the base is plastic you just can't get it tight enough to stop the camera rotating on the head, with potentially catastrophic results.
A much better solution, although 4x the cost, is to use an Arca-Swiss compatible baseplate that wraps around the base of the camera slightly, making rotation impossible. The baseplate should have slot on the side to take a wrist strap much like the Nikon one. I'd recommend [...] for the strap, although there are are others. I haven't used their baseplates. There are lots of baseplate sources such as Arca, Foba, Kirk, Wimberly and Markins. I have the Markins P300U for the D300 and it's a work of art.
(The Arca-Swiss system is a quick-release tripod head interface that is the best in the business, so once you have the baseplate, you're ready to spend lots more money on tripods!)
