Nice inexpensive rope strap

[B-Cochran]

Here is a link to a very nice rope strap on ebay. The quality is very good and the price is more than fair.

I think the principal advantage of a rope strap is that you can wear the camera bandolier like underneath a jacket and swing it up to shoot without binding.

I have two of these, one is the $1 cheaper model and the other as in the link.

I asked the supplier to make the linked model with black leather which he did for the same price. These "blackish green" straps are very flexible, so they can easily be tied in a knot to shorten it if needed. I don't know if the other colors of rope are as flexible as the " blackish green". Communication with the seller very good. Shipment to the west coast was about 2 weeks .

Packing was also very good and it included enigmatically, a guitar pick. As a guitarist this was an unexpected surprise.

Yes, they are very good, i have many! My favourite strap for lighter cameras.

I’ve made some like this myself. Beats leather by a mile, I think. You could buy enough bulk rope to make 5 or 6 of these yourself for the same price if you’re a diy kind of person.

Where do you buy the bulk rope?

These won't bind when wearing "bandolier" you say? For real???

Look for nylon climbing rope on places like ebay, amazon, etc.. It comes in multiple colors and thicknesses.

Thanks for the heads up. I have an all black one at 125cm and am very pleased with it. Ordered a couple of more.

Thanks,

I was just going to post this. I got a 53in and use it as a cross body strap on my Canon P. Highly recommend it!
