Herringbone Heritage Leather Camera Hand Grip Type 1 Hand Strap for DSLR with Multi Plate, Camel Brown

I was looking for an alternative to the camera strap that came with my DSLR, and this is a great option. I am not a professional photographer so I am not using this daily, but it seems really high quality and it is comfortable on my hand. The leather is soft and padded, and shapes nicely to my hand when I am shooting. I found that putting the hand strap on the camera was a little challenging, and had to track down a YouTube video to do it correctly. Other than that, this is a great way to avoid the camera strap flapping into the frame, and still easily access all the camera controls while maintaining a firm grip on your camera. For reference, I have a Nikon D3000 and it fits nicely.

I was looking for something stylish and practical and I found it! This hand grip fits on my Canon Mark III perfectly. I wish the camera had the built in bottom loop but the mounted piece that comes with the strap works fine. I have to tighten it regularly though. The material is very nice and its super comfortable to hold. I highly recommend this!

Nice looks and build quality. Confusing to set up, and the strap didn't quite fit through the hook on my 5D so I had to rip it up a little/cut it to make it fit through. Could be an issue specific to my strap or for all of them, i'm not sure. But it was advertised on a 5D so i'd expect it to fit. Had to look online for numerous tutorials to figure out how to set it up, too.

Love this handstrap. As a professional photographer, I needed something to give me an extra bit of security. I have terrible wrists and was terrified I was going to drop my expensive camera in the middle of reception dancing as I twirl around the dance floor, bobbing and weaving between guests at a wedding. This looks nice, modern, chic, whatever you want to call it. And it's comfortable all day long.

I give it a 3 star for one reason. It's a great quality built item.With that being said it's actually very uncomfortable to shoot with. I have pictures as example of hand is positioned and trying to shoot. The only way it would work if I don't have my hand fully inserted so I can have freedom to to touch the camera buttons. The example pictures are with a t3i. I also have a 6d which makes handle a lot worse to use. So in reality it might work for some but not for all .it all depends of the size of your hand and finger length. Lol (correction I have to log in in a pc to put pictures up ,coming soon)

When this strap is snug enough to secure the camera to the user's hand and prevent an accidental drop, it did not allow my fingers to access the controls manipulated by the right index finger and thumb -command dials, shutter release, and the various small buttons on top of cameras on the right around the shutter release. The only solution was to wear the strap very loose in order to gain freedom of movement to reach the aforementioned controls, but that leaves the strap too loose to protect against accidental drop. Quality of material and construction is excellent. No instructions provided to explain how to thread the single long strap through the two attachment points on the camera, but there were plenty of instructions for threading the strap available on YouTube.

I like it, it does tend to loosen up a bit and I didn't feel it was totally without risk of dropping the camera, but that was easily fixed by adding a small dog collar that goes around your wrist then there is no way your can drop your camera. The thing that would improve this is an easy way to detach it from the camera rather than the somewhat old fashioned strap system.

This is the second one I have purchased. I shoot with two 5D mk III's and I would rather have a camera in my hand than around my neck. These work great, look amazing & unique. Everyone wants to know where I got them and constantly has questions about using a hand grip, etc. Great conversation piece.
