[QUOTE="spb_stan, post: 633683, member: 43545"] I use a Black Rapid sling strap, one of the first they released a long time ago that had the magnetic closure pockets and also a hand strap that stays on all my cameras. It allows secure holding of a heavy camera/lens during long events without having to tighten finger pressure to hold securely, allowing 1 hand shooting with a 70-200 2.8 . I leave the strap loose enough to instantly slip my hand into it when the camera is on the sling hanging at my side and bring up to my eye in a quick single motion. The tripod mount can be used also, but I seldom use a tripod except for night architecture shooting. When my hand is in the loose hand strap, barely flexing the large joints of the fingers creates a wedge that locks the camera rigidly held with almost no finger pressure. Relaxed fingers don't get tired in a 9-10 hour wedding or event. [ATTACH=CONFIG]264522._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
