Complete idiot to loose their POTN strap. I was at a junior one day event today using a 100 – 400 on a monopod, the strap was getting in the way so I unclipped it and made the fatal error of saying to my wife “please look after this for me” She had great fun wearing it as a headband, belt and makeshift bra and then, when bored, put it down in the middle of a field and left it!!!!! (good thing I love her)

A suitable prize for this amazing piece of planning would be, that’s right, you guessed, a brand new POTN strap (preferably black please ;))

As I know full well that I will not be so lucky my next post will be an order :o.

Neil--

We've seen the photos of your wife, and we've seen all the toys she has allowed you to buy. You're still waaaay ahead of the game.

She's definitely a keeper, although she clearly cannot be trusted with any more of your POTN straps.

Are you sure she lost it? She may have decided it made a nice bra and kept it for herself.

I haven't, I haven't! Well think in a positive way, good publicity.

Loose a strap, gain an L. If only all investments were that good! :D

Neil, there's room in the glamour forum for the bra shots! LOL

Just kidding. I have had my straps for a while now and still haven't used them. I actually like the default Canon straps quite a lot.

I don't use straps very often. Not since I had one catch on a desk corner when rushing to a shoot. Terrible sound!

Neil, maybe in future you should get one of those car tracking devices fitted to the strap, or your wife. :)
