Here is the strap on my camera.

I already got the strap in january but somehow I missed taking a picture of my camera and the strap - but now here's it:

The 5D3 is a beauty innit?

[Jiko]

Oh it is! (By the way: Our equipment looks pretty similar - 5D3, 580EX II, 24-105, 100mm 2.8L Macro, 100-400mm, Velbon Sherpa 600R - I just have the Sigma 12-24mm instead of the Canon 17-40mm and only a 500D instead of a 7D. Finally I'm missing some prime lenses.)

[janern]

Yeah, indeed we do have pretty similar equipment, apart from some primes
How do you like the grip for the 5D3? Is it original or third party?

[Jiko]

That's the original grip. For cheaper bodies I'd buy a third party one but on a 5D3 I wanted the original grip.

By the way: You can take off the shoulder pad of that strap and then (depending on how thin you are) the camera can be carried like a belt. Once I removed the grip, used my small 28-105mm lens instead of the 24-105mm and then I had a quite small set. I really like that strap!

There are two connectors on the strap so I can hook them up with two bodies...the D3100 does not look so compact with the lense and flash mounted...

So, as promised, here's a picture of my Camera Labs strap installed on a Sony Alpha A580 with Sony VG-B-50AM vertical grip using both connectors.

PS: How do I add an attachment? I think I haven't been cleared for that.

Edit: Thanks, Cujo, that's my first time on Flickr...
