Great product. I have one that must be 10 years old and it still works great. Needed another one for a recent camera purchase.

I bought this strap on the advice of Ken Rockwell, a pro photographer who has an informative website. This strap is incredibly comfortable to wear and very well made. The part of the strap that fits around your neck is made of neoprene like they use in wet-suits for divers. Really strong stuff, but stretchy. The weight of the camera is barely felt because the strap has enough "give" in it to absorb the weight of the camera as you move. It's perfect.

The best part of the strap is it's detachable.

Designed for ligher cameras such as older film cameras, this strap is perfect. Comfortable,elastic, doesn't twist around.

This strap seems to take the weight of my camera away and is comfortable around my neck. The only con I see is the length. It works OK for me, but a taller person might fight it too short.

A very good, functional alternative to the basic short Nikon strap that could substitute as emery cloth in a pinch. Availability in colors other than black is a nice touch; comes in handy. I was guided to the Tamrac N-25 at Adorama by Ken Rockwell. Thanks Mr. Rockwell & Adorama.

Very comfortable, much better than the uncomfortable and hedious strap that came with my D3100. Only complaint is that it could be a bit longer.

I bought this because I'd read a review saying it is long enough to sling across the chest rather than hang from the neck, but that is not the case. It's too short for that. It's really only a minimal improvement over the Nikon strap that came with the camera. It's a bit more springy, but too short for what I wanted.

The Neoprene broke it then just held together with the fabric on the top if the Neoprene. It was too bouncy and there was no suppport for the weight, I think the Tamrac N-27 - Boomerang Strap is a much better strap

Like others, I found this strap to be very comfortable, but too short. After a bit of searching, I found some strap extensions at Jodie's Camera Straps that work well. They come complete with sliders and a quick-disconnect, but if you don't like all that extra "stuff" in your strap, you can cut the stitchings on the Tamrac strap ends and attach Jodie's extensions in their place using the Tamrac parts. This is somewhat shorter, of coutse, than the 11 inches total that the unmodified strap/extension combo offrs, but still should be long anough for most anyone. If not, Jodie will make custom-length extansions for you. All in all, I'm happy with the strap, with Adorama's service, and with Jodie (no affiliation, just a happy client).

Comfortable, well padded, not quite long enough

The Tamrac strap is very supportive and much more comfortable than the standard Nikon strap. Easily adjustable and well padded.

Much more comfortable than the Nikon strap that came with my camera. Best [$] I've spent on a camera accessory. Period.

I have had this strap for a year. It is comfy enough to wear for 12+ hours. It will make your neck a little sweaty if it is hot out. It is a little shorter than some straps. It is very solid and easy to attach. The ends of the attachment straps have brushed my eye a few times and they are not very soft. If it broke today I would order another one.

this is really a comfortable strap that seems very durable.

Makes the hanging camera appear almost weightless. Very nice!

Instead of using the OEM strap that screams "Nikon", I use this. Comfortable and easy to take off. If you are looking for a more heavy duty strap, look else where. The quick release parts look like they can fail and drop your camera, but this has never happened to me nor am I afraid this will. I would not use this for a larger, full frame DSLR for that reason.

I read a lot of reviews before buying this, and should have taken the ones about it being too short to heart. It's a great strap if you are looking for one to just hang from your neck. I wanted something with a bit more flexibility in terms of how it could be worn - neck, neck & shoulder, shouler only. I'm 6' and I would consider this a short neck strap. I was hoping it would have been just a bit longer, but it wasn't. I would recommend this strap, but only if they were just wanting a neck strap.

Haven't used it a whole lot yet, but the times I have used the strap, it is very comfortable and wears very well. Actually would rate this a 4 1/2. Would have been a 5 if it had been about 2-4 inches longer, but that's not enough to not buy or use it because the comfort far outweighs this small drawback!

This is a decent quality strap for the price, but too short unless you just wear your camera in the tourist position. It works fine with binoculars and that is how I'm using it. In this use the quick release is a plus. I would recommend it for a point and shoot that's too large for a pocket, or for binoculars.

This is a most comfortable strap I have owned. Now I can carry my camera all day without neck and shoulder pain. I can loop it around my neck and it sits comfortably, a little lower off my neck or I can carry it over my head and one shoulder and it rests in the crevice of my upper arm. That way I can hold it in place and it won't get bounced around by people passing by. I don't know if everyone can carry it that way. I am a medium-sized woman. I like the neoprene pad. It is strong and has a little give to it. It acts like a shock absorber. It's much more comfortable than the strap that came with the camera. Overall, I am very pleased with this strap.

This strap was recommended to me by a friend for comfort and durability. I have had it for a month and it is comfortable, too early to say on durability, but it is well constructed.

This strap is a huge improvement over the cheapo nylon webbing-types. It's all-day comfortable, absorbing the weight of a camera bouncing on your neck very nicely. I can hike for several hours with a Nikon DSLR and compact telephoto lens with no discomfort. I've had the same strap for at least a couple of years now and it's held up quite well. The quick-release buckles are a nice touch, and I've had zero problems with them. The only drawback, as mentioned by another reviewer, is that it's a bit short for carrying over the neck and shoulder (which is also what I prefer, rather than letting the camera pull just on my neck). It carries OK, but the length is impractical for simply pulling up the camera and shooting without unslinging it from under your arm. Unless you're going with a fancier holster system, though, this is the comfiest camera strap around. Probably the best [$] I've ever spent on a camera accessory.

I wasn't using my digital slr camera as much as I liked because my neck would kill me for days after a few hours of shooting. I finally realized it was the stiff kit strap and read online about this particular strap and how comfortable it was. I ordered it just before a shoot for a big event my agency put on. I snapped shots for over five hours and no stiff neck the next day. I like its flexibility and light weight. Plus it came in a snazzy blue color!

I just received this strap. I purchased it after it was recommended by a website that never steered me wrong. However, I prefer to wear my DSLR over the neck and shoulder and with this strap it just isn't possible; the camera would end up somewhere under my armpit. The strap has a couple of quick-disconnects and a couple more buckles, I'm not sure I would trust it with a $1000+ DSLR. It seems tough, but the 6 potential points of failure frighten me. I'm still looking for the perfect camera strap.

The product is well padded and very comfortable to use. My only negative is that my camera would slide around to the lowest balance point around my neck.

I use my camera when traveling and end up carrying it around all day. This padded camera strap saves a big neck ache at the end of the day. Easy to attach, lots of pading and doesn't annouce your camera brand to the world. Wish I had found it sooner. Looked at several before I bought this one and all were more expensive. I doubt that the more expensive versions are any better. Haven't found anything I don't like.
