Well I just got my Nikkor AF 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6 ED lens paid for, and now I'm just waiting as patiently as I can for it to get shipped! Lol

Settle down, you can't get any good photos while your shaking.

Was curious about this since it was only $25. Actually not too bad, but won't use it in the field until I've tested it a bit first at home. Not sure I trust it with the D4 and D800 yet hehe. But actually it is made pretty well. I thought about trying it because I didn't like the Black Rapid connector in terms of if I tighten it too much it is distorting the rubber bottom on the camera tripod mount a bit and I like to keep it pristine.

Don't attach your cameras to it, I had exactly the same double strap from a chap on one of the Facebook camera sale sites.
It looks great but on only the second time using it, some stitching pulled apart in a split second dumping my D4 on the ground.
It looks pretty much like a black rapid double strap and some people have said it's as good quality, but believe me, it's not.
I'll try and find the photos I took of it after it let go.

Why not? High enough shutter speed and a VR lens.

 

[Cowleystjames]

Hopefully you can see where it let go from these images.
Be careful man....

Wow.....thanks. And actually it was $15.....hehe. Ahh well, I can use it to hang wet laundry....

Did nobody yet say that we love our 50mm f1,8!

Glad to here you're not going to use it, wouldn't want your camera damaged. Thankfully, mine dropped on grass and being a D4, a depleted uranium shell couldn't take it out!
