    Thank you so much for uploading this.

  • Thanks dude :P i didnt even bother looking at the manual, hopefully the strap will hold well.

  • Thank you so much. I felt so stupid not knowing how to do it... it wasn't even in the manual :D

    I'm new to camera's but I'm hoping to get into it.

  • Thank you so much.

  • so funny, i couldnt get the strap on from the manual...with this video, i did it in one minutes...thanks

  • Thank you soooo much the strap was the hardest thing to get started with great video

  • Searh for: Attaching a camera strap the Nikon way

  • @joutneyman OMGOSHHH thank you for this comment ; if i didn't read this one comment pretty sure i would still be googling anf youtubeing on how to insert this stupid strap LMAO

  • thank you soooooo much! that helped immensely! the manual made absolutely no sense! very good tutorial! u went slow and i understood everything! :) cheers

  • I spent x amount of money on a Canon and would say I am able to take relatively decent pictures, however I have been beaten by the neck strap. I almost felt like I needed to take the thing back with my head hung in shame. You have made me feel justified in my purchase again, thank you from the bottom of my heart and wallet.

  • Thanks man!

  • Thanks dude, even though you would think attaching a strap is easy, it can be a pain in the ass. :L

  • perfect - the manual is ridiculous

  • You are not installing the strap correctly. Here's the correct method, see this video: j6mry_7u-eA

  • thanks a lot!!! it was hard to find but when i did, it saved my life!

    

  • Thank You Very Much!!! :)

  • And here I thought I was the only simpleton, thanks

  • Hey, do you know how to put videos from that canon to Movie Maker. I tried and it wouldnt work. And on the camera it looks really good but on the computer its horrible

  • These kind of videos are hard to find. Thanks!!

    I hope I can use this to attach my JCC handstrap. It looks like the wrong buy though.

  • Thanks for the video mate, appreciate someone taking the time to show me how to do this.

  • type in 'Proper way to put on your camera strap' - one of a few films which shows a proper way, you can also look into 'user's manual' of any camera. My firnd uses 3 instead of five screws in the wheels of his car and he has never lost any of them. When you put in the right way, it just loo neat...this is my opinion anyway. regards

  • This is not a proper way how to put a strap. Ignore him guys. There is another film available which shows how to do that PROPERLY. Cheers

  • @romnika It is the way thats is explained in the manual, do you have a link to this other video please? Thanks for the comment, always good to hear feedback and comments of any kind.  Can I also add I have never had the camera fall/drop even with heavier glass on. Rick

  • @rickjbradbury The "accepted" way of attaching the strap is to put the loose end UNDER the main strap inside the buckle, not over it. I don't think it's a big deal, but it's considered a better "lock" to have the loose end go underneath.

    An example of the "normal" way is at video ID number: iLXLqPR5Qp4

    However, I'm sure your method also works.  I just don't think the strap is secured as well in the buckle. This is probably what @romnika was referring to.

  • thanks so much :D

  • Thankyou!!!

  • Thank you very much dude... Was very helpful, i was around 1 hour trying to do that...Yeah, i know it sounds stupid...

  • i just manage to pick up the 550d for the same price as the 500d (535 pounds)

    its all english etc but it says kissx4 on it instead of 550d

    eyerything is genuine and english and of an english sight so that was a great deal it came with the standard lens aswell

    so if anyone wants to buy a second hand mint condition 500d all boxed everything included etc please send me a message

    nice vid kind regards

  • nice video, i've actually never taken off my strap since i got my camera b/c of the annoyance of eventually having to put it back on lol.. also i like the strap on it w/ the red stripes etc.

  • Thanks for the video Rick. FYI - in live view or movie mode the eyepiece cover is not necessary according to my 7D manual. It may be different for some other cameras.

  • do you know of any quick release camera straps, so i can remove it completely quickly & easily just that sometimes it gets in the way and it takes too long to remove the original strap then put it back on

  • @Richard8485 there are straps that are put on like the way regular straps are but in the middle its a clip/buckle.. like something you would find on a backpack where u push the two sides in etc.. i heard they are useful but i dont know if i would like to use those.. just the mere thought if it snapped and my camera fell would give me a heart attack..but thats me being paranoid and im sure they are sturdy. =D

  • 1:44 Thanks!!!
