Questions & Answers

Shopper : Will this strap accommodate 2 tripods, or, is it too small for the strap to wrap around and secure both? (I.e. 2 Sony VCT-R640 tripods approximately 23-24 inches long, each). Maybe an owner could advise.RICHARD S : The straps and buckles are high quaility and strong. Depending on the 'pods, it may fit. But it would be a simple affair to add a small addition to lengthen it. The pad is also quality. If it were me I would consisedet a backpack. With my 65 mm scope and carbon fiber manfrotto, it is not light. It works well and I like it, but I wouldn't want any more Weight on one shoulder. Nice product.JOSEPH A. K : The upper buckle strap extends to 14 inches long (unbuckled) and the lower goes to 18 inches. Check to see if this will be enough to go around both tripods. 24 inch long tripods should work fine with this strap (for carrying across the shoulder or back) due to the great adjustability.ANDREW R : Unit is designed for use with a single tripod.
Shopper : Is this ruin with tripod?BARBARA L : Sorry, I don't understand your question.DAVID L : No, it does not ruin your tripod. The steps wrap around the legs and the top.AMY K : I'm not sure what you are asking. This strap clips around the tripd and has a nice soft strap so that you can carry it easily on your shoulder. Mine is permanently strapped to my tripod.HO-YEN T : wat?ROBERT L : What!!??? Ask a question that makes sense and I will probably answer it.BRUNO E. S : It works! I bought it because I couldn't find a tripod bag that will fit my Manfrotto 055XPROB for sure. This is a practical alternative. It is well built and sturdy. I am satisfied with my purchase. It is easy to strap/unstrap each end and ready to go.ANDREW R : This strap should work with most tripods.
Shopper : Is this ruin with tripod? Not sure lock will ruin color of itJAMES L : Here's the thing. I stopped worrying about scratches, nicks, discoloration, etc. back when I was shooting 35mm. I had friends who kept their gear looking pristine and as a result, they would not use it in certain situations and ended up missing shots. My bags look beat, some are faded. The pelican cases are scratched and dinged. I see others whose immaculate gear seems to scream "Steal me!" and it does happen. No one gives a second look to my stuff. I like it that way. I'd suggest another hobby if you are worried about something a trivial as color. Other than in your photos which this will have no effect on.JOSEPH M. L : I've been using this strap on my Manfrotto tripod since April and have not seen any problems in this area. The strap has been a significant help on my journeys off the beaten path.WILLIAM H : I love this strap to carry my tripod when I am hiking to waterfalls or other locations. It snaps on easily and I unsnap the bottom strap when I set up the tripod for a shoot. The strap is solid black and the snaps are made of strong plastic like you find on a backpack. The snaps do not scratch the finish of the tripod. The strap looks good with my tripod. Before I purchased this strap I bought a carrying mechanism that operated lille a backpack with two straps. This device kept sliding up the tripod and caused the tripod to slide down my back and swing back and forth in a very uncomfortable manner. This strap is great and solved the problems of my original carrying device. I highly recommend this strap.DAVID L : I'm not sure what you mean by ruin the color. The strap works as intended and saves my hands to carry other stuff.Phillip V : No. It won't ruin anything.

Best strap on the market! Comfortable and easy to use!

This is THE BEST tripod strap in that it's easy to attach and detach at will, light as a feather and very comfortable. This is my second strap. The first strap lasted over 10 years! Highly recommend!

awesome tripod strap

I've been looking for a tripod strap and found this. It's an amazing strap because it allows you to shoulder carry or body strap your tripod instead of always having it stored in a tripod case which is so inconvenient to open and closing the case all the time. This is what I've been looking for and would highly recommend this product

Just what I needed

I'm a serious amateur landscape and underwater photographer. I bought this strap to add to my tripod I use when tracking in the woods. I have an original SLIK Master with a Manfrotto 3 way pan head. It's a heavy rig and I shoot a Canon SL1 with a Canon 100-400 L series off of it. This combination is solid. I needed a strap that would hold up to the weight and be easy on my shoulder. This one fits the bill. Quality is very good. Easy to adjust the length and the quick releases make deploying the legs easy and fast. I might get another for my monopod.

Very convieniant strap.

Love the tripod carrying strap. Very quick and easy to install, or remove. It appears to be of good quality build and holds very well. I use this on a full size, quite heavy tripod and have had no problems with it. It makes carrying much more convenient and comfortable now. I would recommend.

Eases the back carrying a heavy tripod

Typically good OpTech strap used to carry my tripod which is fairly heavy. I use a OpTech strap for my camera so when I wanted one for my tripod this brand was the one to try. I was not disappointed. It eases the strain on your shoulder when compared to the strap on the tripod storage bag. It is easy to unsnap at the bottom and then quickly set up the tripod while leaving the strap still attached at the top, take down is just as fast.

No more banging around

Makes the tripod easy to carry. Places the tripod in a vertical position, on your back, so it won't bang up against everything that is close to you. The clips are easy to open and put back on the tripod. Tripod weight feels comfortable.

Convenient

I usually atatch it to one of tripod's legs to carry tripod on my shoulder. It is much more comfortable compared to holding the tripod in arms. Minor issues: 1) It is difficult to tighten buckles for a snug fit when attached to tripod leg, so it may slide if the leg has a smooth surface. 2) The padded strip is permanently attched and can't be repositioned (it is assymetrically placed, so it still works).

As Tony Tiger Says...Great!

As a nature and scenic photographer I use a tripod for about 80 % of my images. Carrying one all the time can be a real PITA so when I saw this strap I immediately ordered one. From the first day to the last I never regretted the purchase and in fact went out of my way to tell photographer friends about it. Sadly while out photographing sea cliffs in Acadia National Park today I managed to drop my tripod off a 60' sea cliff into the ocean. Oh well at least the camera wasn't attached and I was glad to finally be rid of my Slik Pro 500 DX tripod which was a piece of junk! Just wish the strap wasn't attached when I dropped it overboard...

Comfortable

Op/Tech straps are always comfortable, and this one is no exception. This makes carrying my tripod a breeze. This seems like it would fit any tripod very well with all of the adjustments it has available. That being said, it is a bit of a pain to adjust. I'd like a little more user friendly adjustment for it, but overall this is certainly a strap that I'd recommend to anyone with confidence. Very easy to use (other than the adjustments), and very quick to deploy the tripod when needed. Great design.

Useful Product

This is a very useful product to have. Tripods are easy to leave behind because they are awkward to carry around. This carry strap will make it more convenient to take my 055XPROB along so I will have it when I need it and use it more often.
