Camera strap question

12 years 9 months ago #114139 by kimbers55
I have seen people somehow wrap their strap around their hand. How do you go about this? It looks like they just stick their hand in, do some sort of funky twist, and its tight. Can anybody help?

Have you been stalking me?? :watching: I twist the strap around my hand then tuck it under my little finger. I just feel more secure that way.

Don't pi$$ me off, I am running out of room to store the bodies...

I wrap mine around my shoulder and elbow when I shoot to steady the camera

I don't think my strap is long enough to wrap around my shoulder and elbow.

66 Euro's? So that would be nearly $100 USD?
