In the situation where people are getting lazy, how to take a SLR out of the street has become a serious issue. Shoulder bag looks like chic, in fact, the shoulder is very painful; shoulder bags in exchange for the lens is inconvenient, the back is still very hot, and the bag in addition to a replacement lens is empty and quite a fuss. So in some cases, a quick camera strap plus a lens package has also become a reasonable lightweight option.
The CarrySpeed ​​brand has been completely blacked out in some photography forums, but in fact, there are not many brands available for quick straps. In a limited number of brands, this brand is still a good value for money, plus it has been criticized for metal wear and tear problems. Improvement, so under the support of lazy cancer, without too much horizontal contrast, chose this brand.
There are mainly three types of CarrySpeed ​​main models: Hummer series, Breeze series and Extreme series:
The positioning of these three straps is roughly:
1, Hummer series, as a flagship model, the widest shoulder strap, the most homogeneous parts, there is a safety rope for large telephoto, if you need to use Nikon or Canon's single-digit flagship model with a 70-200 inch lens, Basically this can only choose this stout type. The 2013 model uses an old ball lock (zinc alloy) and the 2014 model is an old ball lock. In 2014, the leader version (with PRIME, also known as Gold Hammer) started to use a modified version of the stainless steel ball lock. In the same way, it has also been replaced with an elastic lock instead of the original thread lock. 2015 version began to fully use the new version of the ball lock, and the difference between the 2014 version of the leader version is that the strap is no longer used perforated ventilation, but the use of a "more breathable structure" (this feeling is a gimmick, the old version of the price, the new version to the price Redouble the sale, restore the original just listed profits, to a small change).
2. Breeze series, the narrow shoulder strap version of the Hummer series. Narrow shoulder straps do not look professional, so it is eye-catching and suitable for low-key street sweeping. Compared with the Hummer series, there are no more wide seat belts, less underarm belts and wrist bands, but it is a burden to me.
The figure that reads the second word on the map is the Breitlinger's safety rope. The underside of the double-linked installation is the safety rope of the Hummer. It is generally used when the strap itself is fixed on the telephoto lens mount.
The Breezy Man is also the same as the Hummer series, divided into the 2014 regular version and the leader version. The leader version of the ball lock is the same as the Breeze 2015 version. The upgrade process is used. The only difference is the shoulder strap. However, the price of the Breeze 2015 model was nearly double the price of the 2014 Leader Edition, so this article chose the 2014 Leader Edition out of the box. Jingdong has already bought a 2014 Leader Edition. Only the 2015 and 2014 non-leader's editions suggest that a cat should be able to take a look. The starting price for this product is only 340 or so.
3, the ultimate faction class, and the difference between light wind man is that the shoulder strap is rubber, not the so-called diving material, so not afraid of water, can be used in the rain (official so publicized, I do not understand why the diving materials for fear of water ...come to me?). In addition, the Extreme School is equipped with an underarm belt, so that the camera will not slosh when doing large-scale movements, which will protect the camera when it is in motion. In addition to this ride, I can't think of any other purpose. I can't play basketball while I'm struggling with SLR.
Get out of the box right now, 2014 version of the leader Breezy (the cover of this little brother feels like singing international songs, seeing you have to go to the execution ground.)
Before and after the various figures, and then the positive brother figure can open, basically rely on these photos can be clear - this is a very simple strap
Then open the straps. Although it's a lot narrower than the Hummer series, but I still feel a little exaggerated, especially in my small town in the south, summer is estimated to be able to pull out the scorpion ... ... but there is no way, SLR plus a lens is not really light, if it is extreme school With such fine shoulder straps, it is estimated that the back shoulders will not be able to withstand most of the day.
The official name of plastic buckles is Duraflex, which has one more buckle than ordinary buckles. It is not easy to open and it is also safe.
This is the newly upgraded ball lock. The metal part is made of stainless steel. The spring clip requires a relatively large amount of force to pull the buckle off. It looks rather down to earth.
With a description, nothing to look good
With the quick plate, one end connects the ball lock, one end connects the screw hole of the camera base, or the base of the telephoto lens. This quick-release plate is of standard construction and can be directly used for various kinds of tripod heads, so that the straps do not separate from each other and the camera is mounted directly on a tripod.
Attach the quick-fit board to the SLR. Notice that the ball head is facing towards the lens. When the strap is on the upper body, the camera is a snap.
The ball head of the quick-fitting plate and the ball-headed lock body on the strap are still very reliable.
Then you can go to the upper body, this strap is still very heavy, I feel the weight of the SLR is more than half, but fortunately the shoulder strap is not bad.
The camera and lens in the photo are 6D and 16-35/4L. The familiar value friend can estimate the volume and weight.
After tightening the length, it will not be sloshing, and it fits in the buttocks.
Basically raising the camera to the height of the eye is still very smooth, as long as the speed is not too fast, it will not pull the body or clothes.
Well, in the talk of laughing and laughing, we carry out a camera out to get a big news~~88
to sum up:
Advantages: 1, load system is also good, back out for a long time or so no feeling; 2, the camera is more convenient than the original strap (because it is long enough);
Inadequate: 1, back a long time or feel a little stuffy shoulder strap, if it is July and August months easy to sweat; 2, strap body is too heavy, close to the weight of a small lens, but also a small burden; 3, I still feel a little ostentatious 4, if the action is too large, the straps will still rub with the clothing, although it does not affect the activity, but if your clothes have a wool component it is easy to pillage.
In general, it is worth buying. For people who want to carry the camera for a long time, using this strap and matching a camera bag can be very complementary, especially to make up for the inconvenience of the exchange. For professional photographers, it is also possible to choose the double-locked version and hang two cameras on the buttocks at the same time. Frequent use or recommendation to check the wear of the ball lock every month, do not be afraid of trouble when using, use a safety rope, so that there will not be tens of thousands of metal on the ground of the public delighted me.
