I decided I'm going to attach it finally just in case I don't always feel like holding it. Well guess what? I can't figure the damn thing out. The instructions are completely **** and I have no idea how to "properly" put the strap on the camera without making it loose or feeling safe that it's secure. How the hell do you put the strap on?

Then, take that end and run it back up the strap. Push it through the solid black rectangle, and then slide it underneath the first loop in the hollow-ish rectangle thingy. If you do it right, it will look like a loop going from the strap, to the camera, and back into the strap. Chris | My Flickr

It probably works both ways. It felt more secure on that side to me, so it stayed. Chris | My Flickr
