OP/TECH USA 1301102 Uni Adaptor Loops (X-Long) - System Connectors, Black

These are very versatile. I like the fact that I can change configuration easily, like remove the strap and put on a hand strap, etc. Well made, I have no fear of them failing. A very versatile system. I would buy them again.

Another me, too, I love this company. Their gear is durable, interchangeable, and versatile. I made the mistake of buying another brand of "detachable" strap with shoulder/neck loop and was disappointed because once you disconnected the shoulder portion, you were left with two un-mateable connectors. Optech gear can be arranged so that when you disconnect the shoulder strap, you have a male and a female connector in a short loop. This is great for connecting into your pack to keep things handy, or just removing the strap from the camera that would otherwise blow around in the wind when using the camera on the tripod. Indeed, this particular component - the Uni Adaptor Loops - can form a short loop by itself. For extra security, I clip my "short strap" (e.g. the uni adaptor loops) to my backpack while carrying my camera which is attached to it's tripod. Never had any mishaps with OpTech gear. You can add their Secure-Its for more security (which you don't need), but the Secure Its can serve another purpose, too... it's velcro... so you can slap light things to the safety strap that have the matching velcro. And you can use it as velcro strap. I do note, however, that one of my pieces was very hard to thread the Secure It strap thru. That aside, great stuff.

This is a great system - we use this system to attach binoculars to our backpacks. We have three pack sizes by Deuter, and these fit all with ease - before you buy make sure yours can accommodate these straps - see attached photos. We purchase enough adapters to allow us to quick connect each of our two binoculars to either pack interchangeably. Most importantly - we took off the load of the binoculars from our neck, and it is evenly distributed through the comfort of the backpack harness. It also saved us the need to buy a special binocular harness that wouldn't have added any benefit, and would have not allowed us the use of a backpack and the binoculars simultaneously. They are well made in the USA for a very reasonable price

The Op/Tech product line is first rate. I've been using their products for years to suspend my heavy camera/lens from my body or my pack depending on how I have configured the adapters and never had a problem nor a fear that something would let go and drop my expensive gear to the ground, into the Grand Canyon, down the side of a cliff, etc. Because of their simple yet brilliant idea of using matching female/male ends, when not being used to attach gear to the straps, the ends of the adapters snap together making a convenient handle. But I'm looking for comfort and functionality. The padded neck band they offer does a superb job taking the strain of camera body + lens and spreading it. The strap set for use with a backpack allow me to clip my camera case or camera (as the needs might be) to my pack for a little bit easier transport, all the while not having to worry about loss of gear or damage to it.

Give good flexibility when using my binoculars are camera. Good quality, quick disconnect ends. Nice. Handy to have in the camera accessory drawer. They are a little narrower than I would have wanted for my big binoculars but narrow does have its advantages. Adjustment on the length hold firm. I like it. BOTT LINE: Earns 5-Star for good design, quality, & fair price.

I use this a backup catch for my BlackRapid strap (Their camera bolts are known to come loose unless you constantly tighten or Loctite the thread). In the event my BlackRapid bolt ever comes loose and separates from the camera (i have the BlackRapid attached to a Custom SLR camera plate and the Op/Tech attached to the strap and my camera's built in lanyard mount), this is strong enough to provide a secondary "catch" to keep the camera from dropping to the ground. Very strong and well built all the way through down to the stitching. And the price is definitely right. :)

I do not like to sling my heavy cameras (Nikon D300, D90) around my neck and carry them that way all the time. Many times I want to carry them in my hand and not deal with all the material in the longer neck strap. These connectors allow me to have it both ways, according to the shooting situation. Then, the material does not interfere with shooting. If I want to reconnect them to the neck strap, it is simple and efficient. If you want to tripod the camera, who needs a long heavy neck strap to be in the way?

Made taking the camera out easier to change how you wanted to carry and use it. I don't always like the long around the neck cord. So this made it easier to make it short to get those quick shots without the neck cord floating around your arms and interfering with the shot. Great system.

Depuis près de 15 ans je ne jure que par Optech concernant l'utilisation de mes sangles pour appareils photo. La résistance des attaches est juste excellente, en 15 ans aucune ne m'a lâché malgré une utilisation sur du matériel parfois très lourd de plus presque 7Kgs. Cet ensemble sangle + ralonge est le moyen le plus simple pour ajouter un lot d'attaches Les rallonges peuvent servir de lanière à tout faire. A titre personnel j'en garde toujours un lot solidement fixé sur le pare soleil de mon 400 2.8. Lors de mon dernier voyage, elles m'ont par exemple servies à fixer un bois de renne trouvé en pleine toundra à mon sac et ainsi me libérer les mains. Que des points positifs donc ! Universel S'adapte à toutes les situations (porter son matériel attaché à un sac, ou par bandouillières... il suffit juste de clipser et déclipser) Petit et permet d'avoir une bandoulière pour plusieurs boitiers, le gain de place peut en valoir la peine Lors de l'utilisation d'un boitier sur une grosse optique, la bandoulière de ce dernier peut poser problème en s’accrochant un peu partout lors des déplacements. Le gain de sécurité n'est pas négligeable donc avec la possibilité de retirer simplement cet accessoire inutile sur un grand télé. Finalement pas trop cher vu le confort apporté par les lanières Seul petit point noir qui est apparu lors de l'utilisation de ce matériel : les lanières (celles en mousse ou celles en néoprène) s'usent relativement vite avec l'utilisation de matériel lourd (sans dépasser le 8Kgs annoncé malgré tout). Elles gardent leur confort d'utilisation ou la qualité en terme de résistance, mais leur état visuel se dégrade parfois rapidement (la mousse qui s'arrache au niveau des coutures, ou le tissu qui se décolle...) 5 étoiles amplement méritées et un accessoire/une marque indispensable pour quiconque utilise un ensemble conséquent en terme de matos photo (plusieurs boitiers, plusieurs télés, plusieurs sacs).

I only use Op/Tech for my camera straps for my equipment now after faffing around with the makers' own strap and and other companies for two decades or more. These enable the standard D-rings on the camera body to fit the Op/Tech straps. Simple and works well.

Lo mejor para quitar la correa cuando estorba en trípode y hacerlo con seguridad absoluta. Si cortas los extremos y los enlazas en las argollas queda en dos tramos cortos perfectos. Hay más soluciones en el mercado, más discretas, pequeñas y bonitas, pero ninguna tan segura.

Este producto y su marca me convencieron a comprar porque no era ni muy caro ni muy barato. Me ha resultado demasiado cómodo, al tacto es suave y agradable y es antiderrapante. Compré originalmente el corto, pero como no me gusta colgar al cuello, sino más bien al hombro para mayor descanso y rápido acceso, compré la extensión, de las cuales solo usé 1 de las 2 partes que viene y me quedó a la altura (mido 1.70 m y complexión media) Si mides más de 1.80 o eres de complexión muy robusta, quizás sí necesites las dos partes la extensión.

Il sistema Uni Loop di Op/Tech è veramente comodissimo. Con questi connettori ho potuto riadattare una vecchia tracolla al mio nuovo sistema Fujifilm con la comodità di poterlo sganciare in qualsiasi momento per collegare, allo stesso attacco, una fascia da polso sempre di Op/Tech. La lunghezza di questi connettori nella taglia "regular" è più che sufficiente per le mie necessità ma consiglio vivamente di calcolare bene la lunghezza a voi più consona e selezionarla al momento dell'acquisto.
