The Vello Hand G rip Strap assures you of a constant firm grip
on your camera while you’re out shooting. The strap adjusts
to your hand, and an extra security strap wraps around your
wrist a nd lets the camera hang securely while you’re walking or
moving around. You’ll always be prepared to capture the shot
when you’re walking through the country or around the city
because when the moment arrives, all you need to do is raise
the camera to eye level and shoot.
The hand strap attaches to your camera’s /4-20 tripod socket
with an A rca-st yle quick-release baseplate , which can mount
onto a tripod or head when you need more suppor t. The
ergonomic strap is padded for comfort during extended use.
When your hand gets f atigued, you can easily attach a shoulder
or cross-body strap to the fold-down eyelet on the baseplate .
