Hey everybody.... I have POTN OpTech straps on both my bodies... but I would like for them to be a little bit longer. Does anyone know where I can extensions to snap into the straps to make them longer??
Thanks!!

We have one locally. I think I got the strap material there also. It was hard to find the correct connectors. Lots of variations on how they clip together. This was something I did not want to buy online Kevin

I'm only 5'5, but my shoulders slope down enough that things slide right off my shoulders while walking around. I like to carry two cameras, each with different lenses, so I carry them with the straps going across my chest (like you would carry a satchel, if you know what I mean). But I want to be able to just pick up the camera and shoot. Right now the strap connectors (at full length) don't allow me to bring the camera up to my face without pulling my arm out of the strap first (so the camera is hanging around my neck). So I need a little extra length. Tommy
