[QUOTE="joenmina1, post: 225486, member: 16748"] I placed my D800 + Nikkor 24-70 2.8 +SB 600 + Blackrapid RS-7 on the coffee table and then watched in horror as it took a slo-mo tumble onto the floor...thank god for a thick carpet. I always worried about the BR RS-7 strap as it precludes the camera body from sitting flat on its base but liked everything else about the strap. I don't think I will be using it anymore. Fortunately, no visible damage and the camera operates normally. My life did flash in front of my eyes as I recalled Thom Hogan's recent piece on the surprising fragility of the D800 after a drop. I really baby my gear so this was shocking to say the least! I will be ordering an OpTech strap soon! [/QUOTE]
