WARNING! Black Rapid strap copies...

I've had a CarrySpeed Pro for years, the mounting plate is arca-swiss compatable. Unfortunately they are no longer sold in the US due to a copyright battle with BR. Unfortunately the Carryspeed was the better design. They are great if you can find the lastest version with the better plate.

Another reason of why not to buy a copy of a Black Rapid sling. I had been using a copy version called Quick Strap. It worked fine until yesterday. Tightened the screw wheel in the tipod mount on my D7200 and it sheared off flush with the camera body. Looks like it's off to the Nikon repair centre. I'm well and truly pissed off. Hard lesson to learn my Nikonite friends. Be warned.
