Rated 5 out of 5

Comfortable, quick release, love it.

I love this strap. I was leery of using it as a sling attached to just 1 lug on the camera, but I've used this on 3 successive cameras with no issue. I like that it doesn't occupy the tripod socket so I can keep the tripod plate on. I wear it across my chest and the camera hangs conveniently at my right hand. When I'm using the tripod for landscapes the strap detaches at the quick release, so the strap doesn't shake the camera in the wind. The wide neoprene shoulder pad is very comfortable.

Op/Tech utility strap-sling

The whole Op/Tech system is working great for me. With the utility strap-sling I can carry my camera more comfortably. Having the camera on my hip or tucked inside my messenger bag beats it bouncing on my chest. This is especially true with my 70-200 f2.8 lens attached. The strap came with Uni Loop clips to attach it to my camera. Overall the sling system is more convenient and comfortable especially with heavier lenses. I also opted for the Op/Tech lens loop to balance the weight of my 70-200 f2.8 lens. This is also working out well for me.

Good value

I have been using the sling strap for a couple weeks and it performs just as advertised. I keep it relatively short to minimize swing because I am often on rough terrain. Also bought the wrist strap to carry a second camera (they share the same fasteners). Good value.

The Utility Strap - Sling offers quick access to your camera while maintaining the security of a strap worn across the shoulder. The Utility Strap - Sling comes with two of OP/TECH USA's Uni-Loop Connectors. Most cameras will only need one, but for cameras with a third strap-connection point or when used with a battery grip, the second Uni-Loop Connector will be used. Your gear hangs securely at your side and will glide up and down the sling without interfering with a camera's tripod connection. The neoprene, internal elastic and non-skid surface are bonded together to form a comfortable, durable strap. OP/TECH USA's quick disconnects (QDs) are rated at 146 pounds tensile strength, so you know your gear is secure.

The Utility Strap - Sling XL Quick Adjust offers all the great features of the regular version (above) but adjusts to hold gear up to 5" lower. And speaking of adjustments, the Quick Adjust feature allows the sling to be cinched to any length with just a tug on the webbing loop. This is especially handy when gear needs to be kept close to the body in rough terrain or in large crowds. To lengthen the sling, simply lift the buckle with a single finger and pull down the camera with the other hand. Quick and easy!

• Comfortably carry heavy equipment for extended periods of time with the internal control-stretch system and Lycra binding
• Evenly distributes weight with its curved neoprene pad
• Non-skid surface keeps the strap securely on your shoulder
• Attaches to strap connection points on the camera body, where the body is designed to carry the load, so no stress is put on your camera housing or lens mount area
• Leaves the tripod mount free for use

Create a safety lanyard for your camera on the Utility Strap - Sling with the use of the System Connectors
For added peace of mind for those photographers who would normally only have one connection point, you can attach your camera to the sling by two points with the use of an Extension System Connector (sold separately as a set of two). One Extension piece would be attached to the back quick disconnect on the sling and connect over to the Uni-Loop attached to the left side of the camera. When you raise your camera to the shooting position, the Extension lanyard will be out of the viewing area. The complete set of Extensions can also be used to transform the Utility Strap - Sling into a regular neck/shoulder strap. As a result, you get two straps in one with this easy conversion.

Switch the Utility Strap - Sling to a neck strap with a set of System Connectors
With OP/TECH USA's Extensions System Connectors, it's easy to switch from a sling setup to a neck/shoulder strap. Simply remove the sling connection from the neoprene pad and attach the Extensions to each side. It's now long enough to comfortably connect to the Uni-Loops attached to your camera.

Wear the Utility Strap - Sling on your right shoulder with a set of System Connectors - Gender Changers
With the addition of the Gender Changers (sold separately), you can switch the configuration of the strap to work on your right shoulder so that all of the sling hardware is in the proper position for ease of use and mobility.

While actively moving around with your Utility Strap - Sling, secure your camera to your side with the second Uni-Loop Connector
Attach the second Uni-Loop Connector to your belt loop which can then be connected to the Utility Strap - Sling's second quick disconnect. Move freely while hiking, biking or navigating busy streets and keep your camera securely attached at your side.

When shooting with a larger lens, reduce stress on your camera's lens mount with System Connector - Lens Loops
Support the weight of a heavy lens with the Lens Loops Connectors (sold separately). The Lens Loops protect your camera's lens mount from the added weight and stress of a heavy lens while positioning the lens comfortably at your side.

Protect your camera from bumps, moisture and dust while attached to the Utility Strap - Sling with a neoprene Soft Pouch
It remains snuggly on the camera as you wear the Utility Strap - Sling and can be quickly removed so that you never miss a shot. Available in a wide variety of styles and sizes to fit almost any camera.
