Description:

This patent-pending equipment offers unparalleled peace of mind and ease of access to your
camera. The R-Strap is worn diagonally across the torso from shoulder to hip and is adjustable
to fit most photographers. The pad has a mesh underside for comfort and breathability. The locking
FastenR connects the R-Strap to the tripod socket located on either the camera body or the lens.
Once connected, the camera hangs upside down, resting securely at your side or in the small of your
back, with the lens pointing behind you.

With the camera at your hip or behind your back, you can maneuver easily througha crowd, carry a
tripod or other gear, or simply have both hands free. When you're ready to take the shot, the
camera quickly glides up the strap into shooting position. Grab.

The R-Strap is so comfortable you hardly know you have it on. So, please mind your
gear and always use plastic gate stop.
