Feb 12, 2013 14:15 | #1 I have a 5dIII that is gripped. I would like to find a really nice strap for it. I am looking for the type of hand strap where your hand slips between the strap and the side of the camera. I am wondering if anyone has one they really love that they could recommend? Bill R

Feb 12, 2013 14:32 | #3 I tried the Herringbone Hand Strap but I can't stand it. It looks pretty but I can't lock the strap in place for my fitting and prevent it from from getting loose over time. I double and triple the loop under the lock but no help. Website

A few years ago I wanted one for when I was out on a boat and didn't want to worry about a neck strap (I hate neck straps). It worked great on the boat, but it soon became extremely annoying and impractical in other situations. I was missing shots because I couldn't fit my hand into the strap, or I wasn't even putting my hand into it and shooting over the top. So I came to the conclusion that I only need a hand strap when there is a chance that I could be hit hard enough that I let go of my gear, and for most of my photography, I don't get hit hard. --
