The black E-Z Grip Strap from OP/TECH is an easy and fast way to hold your camera in either a resting or shooting position. The neoprene composition is gentle to the touch while the wide nature of the grip provides a comfortable grip. The metal base plate attaches to your camera with a rugged 1/4 x 20 case screw that fits neatly into the tripod socket. In addition, the base plate has rubber padding so you need not worry that it will mar the finish of your camera. This grip will allow you to walk along with the camera firmly in your grasp ready to bring up to eye level when the shot appears. No more cumbersome straps hanging loosely by your side that are not &quotshoot ready&quot but also a security risk.
