Don’t like neck straps? The Black Rapid R-Strap might be the answer….

Crooked Imaging are now stocking the new R-Straps from Black Rapid and we think they are great!   They are comfortable, easy to use and allow super fast shooting.  There are a number of options available from just a basic strap through to a configurable system that you can add extra storage pockets and even a dual camera system.  It is a very simple design and it just works.  Simon has been using one for a couple of weeks and loves it so if you have any questions about its operation or why you need one just give him a call.

There are a number of designs in the pipeline and the closest to release should be the introduction of the female version of the strap.  It is shaped to be more comfortable for the female user and fit between the bust so should be super comfy.  If you are interested in this item drop us an email and we will let you know as soon as they arrive in the UK.

What the Manufacturer says:

The Original Camera Sling.

The R-Strap is the most innovative camera strap ever to hit the market. This patent-pending piece of equipment offers unparalleled ease of access to your camera and peace of mind.

The R-Strap is worn diagonally across the torso from shoulder to hip and is adjustable to fit most photographers.The pad has a mesh underside for comfort and breathability.

Our locking FastenR connects the R-Strap to the tripod socket located on either the camera body or the lens.Once connected, the camera hangs upside down, resting securely at your side or in the small of your back, with the lens pointing behind you.

With the camera at your hip or behind your back, you can maneuver easily through a crowd, carry a tripod or other gear, or simply have both hands free.When you’re ready to take the shot, the camera quickly glides up the strap into shooting position.
