Choosing the right camera strap. PeakDesign Slide lite vs Leash

This isn't a real review, but rather a help video on how I chose a camera strap and which of all the PeakDesign camerastraps might be best for you.

FULL DISCLOSURE:
This video is not sponsored nor did I receive any money. While I sometimes get bags for free, I have to pay custom fees, shipping fees and all my videos have lots of production costs (e.g. software and musicrights). Therefore I invest my own money into all of these videos and I have no intention to be biased towards a product or company. Every review and quicklook is written by me and no company can pay for preferential scheduling or what is said in the video. Furthermore, the company sees the video the same time as all viewers here on youtube. All opinions in this video are my own unless stated otherwise.

HOW I REVIEW:
As you might know from my „How I make a buying decision“ video: Rather than just looking at the pros, I like to evaluate the cons or flaws of an item and then evaluate if I can live with them. That is why in my video reviews I concentrate more on the cons of an item rather than going over all the features. Therefore everything shown is just a fraction of all the points that go into the verdict and score of an item.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A QUICKLOOK AND A REVIEW:
A Quicklook usually covers pre-production units or items that I only used for a short period of time. While Reviews cover final items that I have reviewed intensively.
LINKS:
For all my videos I decided not to include links for the products. Everyone is living in different countries and therefore has to deal with different shipping and customs fees. That is why I would advice everyone just to Google the product within their country to find the best deals. For instance: I live in Germany, It wouldn’t make sense to give you a German link while you might be living in USA or Asia. I hope that is understandable.

The PD straps are very nice.
Camera straps are a very personal thing, style is very important to many photographers along with function.
Since switching to a small mirrorless I get by with wrist straps and simple light straps now, no more big cross body straps and big DSLR's 😊

A great review of the strap Bo, I didn't really pay any attention to my camera strap because it works well (it's a strap from an old pouch, not a dedicated camera strap), and now looking at your video I started to analyze my own camera strap and try to find things that I can improve from that strap 😁. Cheers!

[@mirrorlessmemory]

That was a good practical explanation! I didn’t think of the comfort level on the shoulders depending on the weight! Thanks for the info!

[@Youknowthebo]

Thanks for watching, Jose

[@dominikg4818]

You could have mentioned the easy adjustment of the length of the straps.

[@gastelumproductions]

Hello! Do you know how much your camera setup wights? I am planning on buying either the lite or the leash. Seems heavy, and doesn't seem to be a problem with the leash- Thank you!

[@charliewilson3234]

Great review, and pointed out some key points and reasons.

[@Youknowthebo]

Thank you very much

[@jpunieves]

thank you very much for this video. at lesst i have seen someone with gx85 with leash or slide lite. i think im gonna go slide lite even if i only have the panaleics 25mm f1.4. leash will probably bother me because it is going to be too thin for my liking

[@sixxthdegree]

good review. Overdoing it on the film grain.

[@allenkmp]

Do you recommend the Leash for Lumix G100 or the Slide Lite?

[@Youknowthebo]

Personally I prefer the smaller of the two versions. No need for bigger straps on a smaller body imho

[@allenkmp]

@@Youknowthebo Thank you!

[@fusionor]

Which Olympus camera is that? I'm looking for a decent micro 4/3 that is light for traveling.

[@Youknowthebo]

That's the Panasonic gx85. Awesome little stills camera. Video is pretty decent as well, it just doesn't have a mic jack

[@ghibli5111]

the subtitles 💀

[@Youknowthebo]

The subtitles are auto generated by TH-cam. It probably can't handle my German accent 😂

[@rykhen1459]

It's a great camera. But I'd love a smaller camera in the future
