That branded strap that came with your DSLR?
It belongs in the garbage.
If youve dealt with a stock strap from a Nikon or Canon DSLR, you know what I mean.
They display your camera model to thieves in busy areas.
Theyre uncomfortable and unwieldy.
Then invest in a nice camera strap to secure your investment.
Rant aside, you cant go wrong with a camera strap like this.
Hard Graft, the adored leather craft workers from the UK, have revealed their latest camera strap.
At $165 USD, the Hard Graft Atelier Hang Camera Strap isnt cheap.
Its probably not the strap you want for an entry level DSLR.
But if you shoot full frame and do a lot of traveling, its a sound investment.
Another alternative to the strap that comes with your camera are theBlack Rapidsling straps.
Theyre not as pretty as the Hard Graft straps (honestly, nothing is!
), but they provide a pretty cool bit of functionality for the pro photographer.
They have a sliding strap that allows for quick positioning of the camera.
Its something Id love to see in the next Hard Graft camera strap.
That and a 1/4-inch tripod attachment screw to attach directly to the body.
