Yesterday was the first time I was able to put the anchors and strap connectors to use. They felt very secure and were easy to connect and disconnect. I carried my camera with 70-200 lens on a mile and a half hike and never felt that the anchors wouldn't hold. While time will tell as to their durability, I am initially impressed with their construction and ease of use.
I've been after a camera strap to allow me to easily carry binoculars and a long telephoto camera (Olympus M1X with 300mm lens + 2x teleconverter = 1200mm effective focal length) allowing quick use of either. I use three of the anchors, two in the usual places and one on the tripod hole. With a short lens the two usual strap mounts are fine but for a long lens the tripod mount along with the left hand side usual mount lets the camera dangle by my side comfortably. Excellent flexibility with this strap system.
Love the new all black anchors! I bought two four packs to change out all of my older red and black ones. Same great performance but better color, at least in my opinion. I had always wished they made all black and when I saw they were coming soon, I ordered right away!
Very happy with this product - really innovative and adaptable. But the cords on the anchors are too short in some situations. Please, PD make an XL version of the anchors with chords about half as long again.
