Carry speed is made in China; cheap knock off.

check CARRY SPEED brand name sling strap

which is made by a houston based company

personally I think their strap is better designed, and cheaper than R strap

I got it for $35 Free Shipping from eBay.

I took changed the hook on the strap to make it more secure thats all. I was just showing that it works fine now.

Ok a lot of people are asking why I did this video. When the rapid strap first came out it was shit! The quick release on the clasp was coming off and I did not know it until my brand new 5d rolled down the stairs while shooting an assignment. The product now is much better designed now and I would support them but there customer service was horrible. I lost a 2500 dollar camera because of there product and they just said (in so many words) to bad.

what do u mean the quick release came off? I don't see how it would? Did u put on the round plastic over the release?

Tony this was waaaaaay before they came out with the plastic fish filter tube. The first model was a clasp thats it.

@jkdphoto Come on you just didn't loose $2500 because it came off the strap. You could send it to canon and get it fix or did canon charge you another $2500 for fixing.

This style of camera strap is great. I got the UK version, the Pap Strap. Better value for money and does the same job. I haven't taken it off my camera yet. Bought mine online from the website papstrap couk If you are in the US then I guess it's the rapid strap, but if you are in the UK definately the Pap Strap gets the thumbs up.

[papercut1987]

is that a camera for lefty?!!!! I would really like to know where did you bought it

[cadnyc]

please explain what you did to keep the strap on ur shoulders? thanks!!

[briankeathley]

Can you show or explain how you modified the clip? I'm looking to do the same thing. Or just linking to the forum post would be great.

[chrisg2k1]

is your strap mounted to the bottom of the battery grip? if so does ur battery grip become loose?

[charlieT989]

errrm... what did you have to do, I don't get it.

[jkdphoto]

Charlie, It was a demo for a forum I belong to. I had to change the clip on the strap so it would not release

[jkdphoto]

Plus when you use the clip it comes with it loses the vertical grip. I connected it to a key ring and I got both views

[charlieT989]

I still do not understand. I can see you made some changes that look like a really good idea. Any chance of a video showing a closeup of what you have done?
