Camera strap for 11 year old camera?

5 years 3 months ago #624485 by Eric A
We bought our 11 year old daughter a camera for Christmas, but she won't use the Nikon camera strap it came with because "its ugly".  She wants something that is red or pink or orange.  

Can you help me please?  

My Camera Bag:

Canon 7D | 50mm f/1.2 | 17-40mm f/4 | 70-200mm f/2.8 | 320EX | 580EXII

Who or what is 11 yo… the daughter or the camera?

In any case, any will do as this item is pretty much standardised,
visit your local store!

Light is free… capturing it is not!

Aside: the daughter is eleven.

Don't blame her for not wanting to use the provided strap, and she shouldn't anyways. They're badly designed and uncomfortable.

If you do a quick search here on Pt you'll find some recent threads that discuss modestly priced options, many with bright colors. I'm sure you'll find something.

(Above, on the right end of a rectangular area, is a "Search" option. Choose it, and search for the keywords "camera strap pink". You'll find good info in that one.)

Nice selection of colors, what is the length on those (in inches)?  Hard to tell, and it looks potentially short?

Wait wait !!  NS has a point !  Camera strap for an 11 year old camera, sounds like "camera strap for an 11 year old camera " !!  
A freaking 11 year old camera.  Not one of those 10 year old cameras, but a freaking 11 year old one !!

Yes, but if you read the original post, it's quite clear what was intended.

Not everyone goes through Amazon. You order directly from their site (which link was posted above).

Helpful post.  I don't have a 11 year old, but 7 year old who was just given an old Canon Rebel and we didn't give her a strap because it's the one I kept.  LOL 

Thank you
