mystik610 Cream of the Crop  More info Post edited over 8 years ago by mystik610. | Apr 10, 2015 10:00 | #2 All straps and slings leave the opportunity for your camera to swing around and smack into something. I've got dings on bodies and lenses because of them...which is why I now use holsters instead of straps. focalpointsphoto.com

If you use that side in the sling configuration it does help avoid unnecessary movement and flipping it over when you want the side with less friction is easy. There is also another company called UPStrap that makes a sling style strap that, with the addition of non-slip bands adds friction to the design as well but I think Peak Design has the superior product overall. Sometimes not taking a photograph can be as problematic as taking one. - Alex Webb

What would you guys recommended for a strap to use? Try the Luma Cinch. I switched from a BR to a Luma Cinch and couldn't be happier. When pulled tight the camera stays tight to my back and barely moves. VanillaImaging.com

I have not tried version 2, version one works great. James

I heard that their design is flawed because the holes would rip.

Interested. Seems like people like it.

I'm deciding between the cinch or slide from peak design or the leash.

Backed them back on kickstarter and since came out onto their site. It's light, comfortable, and decently priced. They have pretty good customer service too! 6D // 24-105L // 50 1.8 STM

I have owned both the leash and slide. Both are great straps but for a dslr go with the slide over the leash. The slide is wider and slightly padded so it carrys weight far more comfortably.

I narrowed it down to cinch or c-slr air or slide.
