P.O.T.N. Op-Tech Strap Gratitude Thread

[Jonny]

I just thought it would be nice to start an different thread where people can post the thoughts and thanks with regard to the POTN strap when the receive it.

I just recieved mine here in the UK today and i am extremely impressed and would like to say thanks to all those who made this happen.

Especially to Philip Casciola for all his hard work and efforts in what must have been a time consuming project.

THANKS DUDE........I LOVE IT!

[IanD]

To Phil for all the time spent making the strap dream a reality, to Sheldon for the hours on the phone with OPTech and for the drive down there, to everyone for their postitive input, many many thanks folks. Really happy to see that everyone is excited and happy with their straps. OK now who wants to tackle the POTN golf bag?:):):):):):):):):):):):):):):)

[Rob612]

Can I thank in advance ? I'm late in the list, but I tend to forget things :)

Yea what he said got mine yesterday

[prime80]

wo0T!!! My wife just called, and she's ticked off at me, so that can only mean one thing! My strap is here!!! Much thanks to Phil and everyone else involved in this daunting task!

[CoolToolGuy]

Got mine on Monday, definitely worth the wait. I hit one with the Sharpie, installed it, and went directly to my daughter's school for the Spring concert to shoot away.

Thanks to Phil, Pekka, and all the others that had a hand in this.

Have Fun,

[gasrocks]

I do not use paypal but wanted one. Have asked 3 times how to get one with no luck. Can someone get me one please? Thanks.

[ohenry]

Got mine...thanks

[robvonk]

If you have a Credit card, you don't need a Paypal account. Just check the first post on the POTN strap topic:


The page I put up uses Paypal for all the payments, but this does not mean you have to set up a Paypal account to buy one. If you do not have a Paypal account and do not wish to open one at this time, just start your checkout process as normal and look for where it says:
http://www.casciola.com/potn/paypal.gif

This will enable you to pay by credit card rather than using a Paypal transfer. Either way, please make sure you have the correct shipping information in there at checkout time since the mailing labels will automatically printed through Paypal for most of the orders.

[snip...]

Sorry, ordering is temporarily on hold again while we get caught up on orders


Note that you cannot order at the moment..

[Pekka]

For a change I would like to thank YOU who ordered the strap and supported this site. I can't say how proud and happy I am to be part of this wonderful community.

PS. We made a little poem about the strap which was originally supposed to be included as a thanks note in post packages, but for weight reasons was left out. Here it is now for all of you:

[pcasciola]

I do not use paypal but wanted one. Have asked 3 times how to get one with no luck. Can someone get me one please? Thanks.Sorry, I missed this one. Rob pretty much covered the credit card part. You do not need to have a Paypal account to purchase from a seller that uses Paypal as their payment/credit card processor. It just makes it easier for us to accept many different payment methods, and in my opinion they provide the best protection for buyers and sellers. You can check out using most major credit cards without having to open a Paypal account.

The ordering page should be back online within a day or two. I just wanted to make sure Op/Tech had shipped the rest of our order before placing an order for more straps since we were a couple of weeks behind schedule with the first order.

[ssim]

I haven't got mine yet but I've used an the strap in question for quite some time now and it is without a doubt the best strap out there right now.

It has been an honor to play a small part in the arranging of this. The hardest part has been done by Phil. I doubt that when he volunteered to do this that he realized the magnitude of this task. Thank you Phil for taking on such an undaunting task.

I wait patiently for my straps while someone a few blocks away from me has his and has made sure that I know it. I saw them up close and personal with a visit to the OpTech facility in April. They are certainly worth the wait.

I hardly ever go to any other forum boards. Has anyone heard anything on any of the other boards about our little adventure.

[Andy_T]

wo0T!!! My wife just called, and she's ticked off at me, so that can only mean one thing! My strap is here!!!

Hehe ... I'm waiting for that, as well :lol:

Best regards,

[Maureen Souza]

I love my new strap!!! It is so comfortable! Thanks Pekka, Phil, Sheldon, Ian & CyberDyne...sorry if I left anyone out!! It was a great idea. Love the poem, Pekka.

[Anteros]

Thanks very much for your hard work. I received mine yesterday. It looks wonderful.

[Barb42]

What's to say? Ditto many times over. Its hard work to pull of a big project like this one and worker bees who labor with little reward are special.

[flyfishnj]

Let's here it for Phil's boss that let's him POTN all day

[IanD]

You mean some low life actually phoned you and said that he had recieved his straps before you? Geez what a......................,
hold on a second, I resemble that remark

[Kinger]

I hardly ever go to any other forum boards. Has anyone heard anything on any of the other boards about our little adventure.

Well if i remember correctly, there was some talk about this on the Fred Miranda site, I think we some of them order our strap, and gained some new members from that site. I think they even thought about doing something similar, but I didn't follow it.

Oh, And Thank You for the Strap. Third coat of sharpie red going on now.

[JimBobTx]

Just got back from Sanibel Island to find my brand new strap in the mail!! :) Thanks, everyone. I'm off to order a couple of more as soon as I can--someone needs to be at the end of the line!!

[Sketcher]

What, no PICS!?

Come on now, this is a photography forum for goodness sake! Pictures from the shipping box to the poorly composed reflection in the mirror should be a given!! ;)

Thanks guys for all the effort you've put in to the creation, processing and delivery of this cool bit of gear. I look forward to receiving mine.

Cheers

[Bruce Hamilton]

Still waiting for mine, hope it shows up soon. :(

[HJMinard]

I received mine a few days ago (Monday?). Phil, Sheldon, Pekka (and any others involved) ... thank you ... I'll be very proud to display the forum "colors".

[cmM]

Pekka, that poem is great!
How do you pronounce "POTN" though? :-P

[Ben]

I say 'pot-un'

[BigRed450]

Got my first one today.... Awesome strap Guys.... Thanks for all the hard work ...

[jboyd]

Thanks for all the work everyone has done to make the POTN straps possible! I received my first one Tuesday and put it on my camera right away. I have one more coming yet. I have always used the strap that comes with the camera and am amazed at how much more comfortable this one is! I'll never use the other on again!

[flyfisher]

THANKS TO EVERYONE INVOLVED IN MAKING THE P.O.T.N. STRAP POSSIBLE.

[Bob_A]

I just got home and my new strap was waiting for me woohooo (I was number 24)!

Thanks for the great strap Phil (and of course anyone else that was involved). It's an excellent strap, a great deal, and the ordering process was flawless.

LOL ... how about a POTN 70-200 2.8L IS lens? :)

Bob

[KurtKuhn]

I have always used the strap that comes with the camera and am amazed at how much more comfortable this one is!

Totally agree. I can't believe how much more comfortable this strap is. What a difference! Thanks to all for their efforts, esp. Phil.

Going to be in Niagra Falls & Toronto this summer; I'll be seeking out other's POTN straps.

I got mine on Tuesday. Very nice. Already on my XT.

I have 2 of these straps already on my D60 and 10D so am waiting for my new one to add to my 20D. Thanks to all who arranged this--I'll enjoy using this one with this forum's logo on my 20D as I do a bit of traveling this Summer--maybe I'll run across some members out there.

Where are my two straps gone? (sigh)... :cry:

:cry: I was #2 on the list and didn't receive anything yet.
Where are my two straps gone? (sigh)... :cry:You were in the first batch for sure, I remember. I'm not sure why U.K and Denmark have received straps before France, but I really didn't expect any international ones to get there in under a week.

[pierrot]

Hehe, guess what? I really HAD to complain to let them arrive: I got them this morning in today's mail. Just within a week as you predicted. :D

Thanks again, Phil, your goodwill and devotion will remain as an example for the generations to come! :mrgreen:

[gsmx2]

Got mine yesterday. Figured out a way to get my RC1 attached in the wee hours of the morning. Leaving for a hike in 10 minutes. Thanks to all. Probably would not have replaced the Canon strap except for the wonderful opportunity to display the colors of this forum.

Care to explain how? After my 50th birthday a couple a weeks ago, it seems like I can't get my brain cells to work at anything faster than f/11:(

[toner]

Got mine today and imediately put it on my 20D. I really love the quick release feature, as I think the strap gets in the way alot and hate the process of removing/reattaching the OEM strap. And it feels great, too. Camera feels lighter, blah, blah, blah...
It was well worth the wait. Thank you!

CHEERS GUYS!

[Andy_T]

Wonderful :D

I am happy to announce that my strap made it all the way to Germany yesterday!

Even the address sticker on the envelope was in the forum design - really nice work!

Now let's hope my pictures REALLY get better with that strap (wasn't that in the fine print of the adversisement :wink: )

Best regards,
Andy

[gaza]

Mine arrived this morning, justed fitted it to the 300D, it is a great improvement on the original. Thanks guys.

[RonS50]

Mine arrived in Florida, Many thanks to Phil and all who worked to make this happen.

[Volatile]

I have mine and I love it. Thanks Phil, you are awesome, I can't imagine how much of your free time you gave up to do this.

[markubig]

I just received my Op-Tech Strap in the mail. It's awesome!

I just wanted to thank all the people who have made this dream a reality: Phil, Sheldon, Pekka, the mailman, The Academy, my mom (hi, mom!), my cousin (without your kids, I have nothing to photograph), my wife-to-be (for all your nagging about the $$$ i spend on photography) . . . and all the little people behind the scenes, without you . . . * TEAR DROP, SNIFFLES * . . .

Cheers guys - I'm impressed with the quality.

[vandec1]

Rec'd mine in the UK last Saturday - great strap, really comfortable on my 350D. Need one for my 10D now... Thanks to all those for making it possible and to those who ordered and also contributed to the upkeep of this great site at the same time.

[Brian B]

Received mine today. Excellent replacement for the stock 20D strap.

Thanks!
Brian

[GeneWickeresty]

Hello All,

Am new here, learning a lot of new things and will send some photos to share with all.

Want to say the Op-Tech Strap was a welcome change to the Canon strap that came with my 20D. It soooo much more comfortable around my neck.

Thanks Again!
Eugene Wickeresty

[RockOne]

G'Day.
Just arrived in the mail, and is already in place on the 300D. Amazing piece of gear. Thanks to all who took the time and effort to produce and ship the strap. Much appreciated. Phil you're an absolut elegned !!
Now I need to order another one I think. Then I'll just have to order a 20D to attach to it :-).

[photography By Evangelos]

Cool they are on the way! Now were is mine? I hope I get it soon as I will be on a trip for 2-Weeks and would just love to have it.

Mine was shipped yesterday to Petawawa, ON. Canada. I expect it wil be 7 to 10 days before I get it. Thanks to all involved in taking on this project.

Just checked the order page and mine was shipped. Anticipation is a wonderful thing. Makes me want to go home at lunch and see if the UPS man has dropped by.

Thanks

Hey

Mine was shipped to Ottawa on May 21st and I recieved it today May 26th, so 5 days will probably be the same to Petawawa; and DAMN is it nice! :lol:

[Dale]

Great, better than I tought with Customs, etc.

[Blackbird]

I got my strap today. It was a pleasent surprise as I had forgotten about it. I'm very impressed with the quality of the strap.

[Streetshooter]

Man, what a treat...the 2 straps came today, just intime for my shoot on Sunday...great stuff...thanks....don

[Roach711]

Let me add my voice to the multitude here:

Mine arrived today and is definitely superior to the stock strap.

Many Karma points to you for handling what must have become a huge undertaking. We all appreciate it.

Da Roach

[napolar]

Mine arrived yesterday, looks great. WalMart is sold out of Red Sharpies, so I guess I'll have to wait a little while for that. Wife has my camera and is in East Tennessee until Sunday, so I will have to wait to put the strap on. Seems like I am doing a lot of waiting. :rolleyes:

Many thanks to all once again.

[Roy P]

Postie delivered strap 5 minutes ago and is now on 1D. Neck is now a happy bunny, wish it would also make me feel lighter.

Many thanks to Phil for arranging all this very much appreciated.

[tommykjensen]

Does anybody know if a cd marker pen would be as good as a sharpie? (I have not seen sharpies here in Denmark).

The pen have "alcohol permanent marking ink".

[Rob612]

Does anybody know if a cd marker pen would be as good as a sharpie? (I have not seen sharpies here in Denmark).

The pen have "alcohol permanent marking ink".

I was wondering the same question, since here in Italy sharpies seems to be non existent. Any suggestion ?

Or, to be more specific: what are the "technical specifications" of a Sharpie ? :D

We can probably find something locally with a different name and same specs.

Or I can ask Phil to sharpie mine before shipping :D :D :D

[Pef]

Hello,
I've got my strap today at Limoges in France...WONDERFUL !
I've an old Optech buyed from b&H photo that I can put on my EOS 30v et now this new and sweet strap is on my 10D.

Love it !

[Gerdav43]

Got mine the other day. Wonderful strap. Thanks to all who made this happen.

I was just wondering if there is a secret POTN handshake that we should utilize now that we have identified ourselves as POTN members with our black straps and Scarlett letters?

[weeman750]

Just got mine delivered here in Scotland today, great work. Thanks for all your effort.

[andygrif]

Mine arrived in the UK today, many thanks...love it!

Shipped from NJ on 26/5...mine arrived in Ireland today 31/5.
Thanks to all for a brilliant idea well executed!

[Dale]

Mine was shipped on 25 May and I received it today 31 May. Looks great. Thanks once again to all involved.

[Rense]

Many thanks to all of you who made it possible to have such a nice strap.
I've received the strap today in a very neat package and good order.
Kind regards

[TSORoanoke]

Thank you very much for the great idea, selection of a good strap, and all the logistics of getting them to us. I got mine just in time for a trip to Washington, DC over the Memorial Day weekend. Carried my D60 + 70-200L f2/8 IS (one heavy piece of equipment) that would have killed my neck with the kit strap. Through the zoo (the one with four-legged animals as well as the rest of the city) it felt just great. Many thanks!

[Sketcher]

An your picture is where. . .? Haven't received mine yet (I said that I was looking forward to receiving mine). But the wife called and said there's an envelope waitiing for me at home. Said it was from some guy named Phil. ;)

[SSonnentag]

Yes, my neck says to give you a BIG thank you! :D

[Tom W]

I said thanks on the sticky thread, but I'll say it again here.
Thanks, Phil, & Thanks, Pekka.

The strap is great - very comfortable.

[Dante King]

Jus tgot mine today! WHOOHOOO. This thing rocks! Glad to be representing the forum to. What a difference this strap makes when carrying my 20D/grip and 70-300/TC1.4. WOW you have saved me! Thanks Phil and Pekka.

[Wazza]

Thanks also from me. Just got home and it was sitting on my bed. My dad was probably :rolleyes: wondering what else I've bought off the net. :lol:

Thanks so much Phil and Pekka. Good luck in the next sale!

[lancea]

The monthly air cargo flight to New Zealand must have just landed :) Mine's here too, although in my part of the country the postal service doesn't deliver to my bed ... A double surprise as my Copper Hill sensor brush also arrived.

Thanks also from me, Phil and Pekka!

[SimonBl]

Mine was in my letter box in Perth, Western Australia when I got home. The postie doesn't deliver to my bed either :rolleyes:

A BIG thankyou to all involved in getting this off the ground. I must say that I am more impressed than I thought I would be, I have a battery grip and the handstrap and was having 2nd thoughts about whether I'd bother with this new strap. However, it's on now, it feels good and I like it so much more than the stock one.

Thanks again and congratulations.

Simon....

[reidr]

Thanks to all the people who made this possible...

[mddpics]

I got my straps yesterday. They are just what I expected. That is a big deal considering that lately I have recived things that are not as advertised. Thanks to all of you that made this happen.

[Kostyanych]

Thanks a lot. That's fantastic.

I think we can say "Thank you" sending Pekka a couple of 4"x6" prints of your town. :) Just put the name of the town, country...
It will be a nice collection... :) What do you think?

[DxHatchback]

where are the pics?

[cfcRebel]

It's HERE! It's HERE! Wooooohooooo.... http://www.initial-d.com/forums/images/smilies/woohoo.gifI LOVE the new strap! I put it on my 300D immediately and it looks great on the camera.
I want to thank Phil - the man, and Sheldon, and everyone who involves in this fantastic idea. I want to thank Pekka for having this wonderful forum! :D

[Palendrone]

Yeah thanks hugely to all those involved in making this happen, after getting mine today and fitting it to my 300D I was really suprised how comfortable it was compared to the original - was expecting comfy but hey this is awesome :0)

Thanks

[tcaran]

The strap looks great and is very light and comfortable. Thanks to all that put in the hard work to make it happen, and special thanks to Phil.

[Whaler]

Yes, simply stated, thank you for your hard work.

I already thanked in the other thread, but here I am also. Received the first one, the second is on its way (should be here today or tomorrow). One only word:

Got mine last week. It really is soft and comfortable.
It's RED and, after some work with the sharpie, it looks a million bucks.
Thanks Phill, Pekka and all involved.
Sid :D :D

[Andrew Pratt]

I got mine on Friday in black and did the red sharpie tweak...its now worth ten times as much :)

[rklepper]

I got mine in green (not sure why) and I love it. Really distributes the weight so much better than the original canon strap.

[bolantej]

mine is black, and very nice, indeed. i will wait to color it when i get some L glass. ;) that canon strap never even made it onto my XT. it's sitting somewhere in this pile of mess i call my desk.

[summerwind4]

I just thought it would be nice to start an different thread where people can post the thoughts and thanks with regard to the POTN strap when the receive it.

I just recieved mine here in the UK today and i am extremely impressed and would like to say thanks to all those who made this happen.

Especially to Philip Casciola for all his hard work and efforts in what must have been a time consuming project.

absolutely love it Phillip, and thanks for getting it to me so quickly, as a matter of fact i just ordered another one.:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Edit: I've always wanted to support the site and do my bit for Pekka1 but afraid that it won't fit the G6 camera. But you have got the G6 right?:o

[CorruptedPhotographer]

cant wait to go back to the US so i can order one :D

[martook]

Oh, I missed this thread... A big thanks to everyone involved! It's soo much better than the crap Canon supplied with the camera. Lots of hugs to Phil! ;)

[Nolz]

Put it to good use today! I love it, and parade it proudly :) Does a great job with distributing the weight of my new tele lens. Little grippy bits on the underside makes it a little more comforting to have slung over one shoulder, nice and grippy!

Thanks again for giving us the oppurtunity to purchase such a fine product!

[EOSAddict]

Got mine last night - looks good - and I like that you can unclip it and make a hand strap (I know that defeats the object of having PTON all over it - but thats why I bbought 2 patches as well ;) )

[neil_r]

Ok not a strap but a vest !

My vest arrived this morning. XXL fits like a glove - Perfect. Many thanks to Phill who even PM'd me to check the size I ordered as I did not look like an XXL in the pictures he had seen of me here :D. (How many more ways can you like this guy?)

got the strap a few weeks ago. super quick delivery to the UK. carrying the camera on my shoulder is no longer a chore.

thanks to all involved.

[Tom_D]

I got my first strap today. It took me longer to get the Canon strap off than the POTN strap on. The stretchy part was a surprise but as others have said it is very comfortable. I think I am really going to like this strap.

I have the strap mounted Canon remote which will not fit on the POTN strap. Anyone figure this out yet?

None of these MINOR issues are deal breakers for this great camera strap.

I got my strap some time ago but haven't been around other than for a quick stop to check the water. The strap is great! And now I see that there is more POTN gear available and more in the works... That's not good for the pocket book :o

Lately I've been shoring up my fishing gear and am in the process of building a new house so I've been relatively safe from making camera expenditures. That vest though... would be much better than using my fishing vest for photography ventures ;). Gonna have to get me one of those!

Thanks Phil & Co. for fueling the obsession. And with quality kit no less!

got my strap too today. I like it, I see how it takes weight off and distributes it evenly. I wish though, that the edges or corners of the neck part were "finished". It looks like someone had a scissor and just cut through a whole sheet of whatever the material is. :D

Love the way it can "hot drop" the neck part for those portrait shots.

Thank-you! Thank-you! Thank-you!
This is the most comfortable strap I have ever had!It will definitely make a long day of touring the island easier on the neck. :-)
