Does anyone know or have recommendation on a dual harness camera strap for 2 bodies? I like Black rapid's design but not the way it holds the camera... using the tripod mount hole. Is there any using the original strap hooks? Only one I see so far is Optech dual harness.

how bout cotton carrier? not using original strap hooks to mount...but at least the bodies dont dangle around when you walk.
but apart from that, optech i think is the only one that uses original strap hooks.

The other time I was also looking for a way around BlackRapid's reliance on using the camera body tripod mount.

I found this instead.

http://davidduchemin.com/2008/12/pimping-the-r-strap/

It shows a Canon body but the idea is there. Use back only one of the original strap eyelet ring on the camera body with a bungee cord like what Thinktank does for some of their bags. One of the readers gave a comment to use the left eyelet so that the strap does not get in the way when shooting vertical or horizontal.

ya i did that with a mix of optech sling strap and customslr c-loop, but i wont use it if you're gonna mount with 70-200 etc.

Yes, I think Optech one is cheaper and more importantly if you want a system that uses the original strap eyelet. Cotton Carrier for me looks a little weird with the camera hanging on the chest.
ya, but if you're carrying with mounted 70-200, at least when you walk its not irritating with the body + lens banging around on your body tongue.gif

Any of you guys here using Tamron 90mm f2.8 Di nikon mount? What's your verdict on this lens with nikon mount?
*
the new one never tried.
if the older one, i much prefer the nikon macro ones...either 40mm or 60mm.

Thanks for sharing, the SB-300 is so cute (but a bit pointless don't you think? Especially when it cannot turn sideways) haha... and Coolpix L620 looks cool and trendy~  laugh.gif
As for the 18-140mm DX lens, a bit skeptical lol Lens with long focal range often compromise alot on IQ one  sad.gif
*
i still got my SB400.
all depends what is pointless tongue.gif
some ppl who dont use flash often, but have pro bodies, just want something small to carry around.
also the SB300 / 400 can be used on the Coolpix A...if you need bounce flash...and small enough so it doesnt look weird with a bigger flash on it tongue.gif

for who own D600, there is a survey for you  laugh.gif

thats the same crap as on D7000 also...maybe thats why got D7100 with newer AF module.
but D610...makes no sense...apparently nothing has changed at all except for the mirror mechanism.
so maybe there will be a mass recall of D600 later in retail stores? else nikon will be forever replacing mechanisms tongue.gif

Yea, it's much heavier, I tried D5100 before and  sweat.gif  d3100 really feels so light and small compared to the bros! D7100 will feel ginormous in my hands, I guess, best way to go shop and hands-on. The kit lens for D7100 worth getting or should I just keep 18-55mm (more lightweight)?

Out of topic, anyone can recommend any neoprene kind of strap which you sling over shoulder?
*
keep 18-55.
straps - customslr or optech pro strap, dont confuse with regular pro loop...if want longer can buy the pro loop XL connector.
