Camera Strap

April 22nd, 2010 No comments

Camera straps are sold in so many varieties, but to me a strap must work wit a specific camera. My DSLR and my Leica are 2 very different strap requirements. For my heavier Nikon D300 I use the Black Rapid StrapS RS5 strap. I checked quite a few various straps in a store in person and I though this would make a great addition.

I originally got it when I had the Nikon D60 and it worked great. ...Read More...

As I keep taking photos with this camera my trust for the auto mode has grown and I started to feel more comfortable with letting the camera decide. I just wanted to have fun with my daughter. ...Read More...

Tea CupsI have only had 3 point and shoot cameras. I started with a Sony Cybershot then a DSC and a year ago a Canon SD-750.  I wanted a camera that can be carried every day and everywhere without weight and attracting attention like DSLR would.
The cameras I considered: ...Read More...
