Hi Guys

Has anyone used the Carry Speed CS-PRO MK II camera strap? Is this better than Black Rapids?

Cheers

That looks great but couldn't find any dealer that has it in stock.

A lot of people here have gone for the Cuff & Leash (inc. me and I love it).

Found it in an Australian site. ordered the lot, Clip, cuff and leash.

I have it & it's great! Takes the weight of my 300mm F2.8 & is really secure.
With a lighter setup, the narrower shoulder strap would be fine.

I tried a BR but I found it wasn't as comfortable & didn't feel as secure.

I've got both the Cuff and Leash and the Carry speed FS Pro now and I can say that Cuff and Leash doesn't even come close to half the robustness of the FS Pro which is more stable attached to a 5D3 and 70-200 2.8. It's only good for lighter SLR or maybe a PS.

It's a pity. The idea is very nice. If only they used a better material like Black Rapids and Carry Speed does.
