Dear Upstrap,
Perhaps you might want to add this to your testimonial page regarding model SG-QR-V strap which I purchased a few weeks ago. After all, you should include the negative as well as the positive.

I have read nothing but raves from your testimonial page from notable photographers and others which led to my purchase.
The Good. The strap is very well made, the loops are strong and the workmanship is top notch.

I used the strap this past weekend in Washington DC. The weather was hot, and all I was wearing was a short sleeve shirt. While it is true that the strap did not slip from my shoulder it cut into it.

The Bad. The strap pad is too narrow and it cuts into your shoulder and is very uncomfortable after wearing it for some time. I actually had to keep a rag under the strap to prevent the strap from cutting in and the pain. I have three other straps made by other companies and this is the worst one I own. I would not recommend this strap to anyone who is wearing a single shirt.

Best Regards,
Bob

The UPstrap actually comes with two tiny keyrings, one on the end of each strap.

My camera only has one extremely small slot/hole, and I dare say there is not much chance I could even get one of those tiny rings through this hole.

Poor design on my Olympus’s part, believe me – but otherwise a great camera.

Judie :0)

If a single lanyard loop is enough to stop you, your not trying. :p

Use a small key ring loop to make the conection between the ends of the strap and the camera. There are all sorts of options though, just have to keep an open mind.

Hope this helps.

However, my present laptop is bigger than the case, so I’m in the market for a new case….

I’m pretty happy with the strap that is on it….but I’m thinking of getting a new strap (to replace the original [horrible] thin strap) for my digital camera (Nikon Coolpix 5700).

As for the new case I’m looking for….I thinking that I want something in a carry-on rollaround type case that has an ‘overnight’ main compartment (getting stuck in an airport once one winter was too often for me….I had lots of gadgets to keep me occupied though 8-)…..and preferrably a removeable laptop section….

The Dreamer.

By the way, I think I found the greatest Laptop Bag ever…the EBags.com Firewall Laptop bag!

So far the strap is functioning well, but I may take a look at this strap as a replacement if the EBags strap doesn’t pan out.
