someone had replied to me wondering why you would use a dyneema rope when climbing...simple answer is you wouldnt. dyneema isnt used in climbing ropes but is used in many other things related to climbing.
The peak design quick release (imo) is better due to ergonomics. The ball quick release desk doesn’t make sense as I don’t need my camera to ‘freely’ spin around as that just increases the liability of my camera
@@sil3ntscr3amlx You don't need both hands to release, you release one handed just like PD. PD is ridiculously overbuilt, worst thing is their straps are full width all the way to the anchor - which obscures camera screen and viewfinder whenever you hold camera vertically. PD became more of a fashion statement for camera snobs in last couple of years, and I am glad there are better options out there.
The twisting feature is super useful. When I clip the little ball back into the clip I don't have to line up the strap and can just untwist it after all clipped in. My neck strap looks more like the green in this video, except mine is blue. Super soft and comfy. Way better than the original strap from Panasonic. Those clips and balls are very easy to clip and unclip with 1 hand, leaving the other hand free to hold the camera! As you might be able to tell, I love mine.
It's just a paid ad, it doesn't mean this product is actually good and durable, don't worry. One of the obvious signs is that he can't mention the competitors' names.
A strap is only as strong as the weakest link. In this case, it doesn’t matter how strong that thin nylon is because the first part to give out will be that (fake) leather fold where the braided cable loops in.
Ulanzi does that too! Even though it is super resistant, I wouldn't strap a huge camera with it cause it's kinda scary but I got that kind of attachement on all my mft cameras and it's great!
The WHOLE reason I wouldn't use the quick release thingies is exactly because they are QUICK RELEASE. Someone that's good at stealing will use that without you even knowing.
There is no way you would not notice. Plus it requires someone to press down on the plastic piece while you unhook it with your other hand. Too difficult to steal and too difficult not to notice it being gone.
@@Princeton_James The issue I'm having is them pressing while you don't notice and then, when you notice the weight gone, they are already running. This won't happen with something that can only be cut or takes considerable time to take away. People get their watches stolen all the time, and those aren't quick release. I prefer to stay on the safer side on these regards. Which is why I haven't bought a fancy high-end camera backpack either. Instead I've a camera backpack that looks like a regular backpack, and that has holes to attach lockers too.
You wont notice even on normal strap, they will cat it with razor in milisecound and be gone. This one they will do the same, not thinking how to Quick realease it 😂
@@retarlil1909 The only reason I can go out and do crazy and dumb stuff, with peace of mind, is because I am this paranoid so I prepare for most eventualities :)))
PGYTech connectors are so much more convenient than those big disks used by lots of photographers. They also have adapters where you can use your own fave strap and just fix on their buckle.
That seems pretty neat! I don't like things hanging off of me by way of bungees, though, as they can start getting a bit out of control. But quick release mechanisms are indeed a MUST nowadays, discs or not!
No my question is WHY ON EARTH, do phones not have attach points too, just like cameras, most more expensive phones are easily over 1k and if you want to have strap like this well u have to use a STUPID CASE, why not dear apple n Samsung just give us attach points
put it on a tripod, put your camera on a shelve etc. At home I rarely use a strap. My cameras live on a shelve, if they all had a strap it would get really messy. Sure you could take off the straps every time but having it quick release allows me to do that really quickly. Also different kinds of straps are nice. Peak design has their "cuff" strap, which is a bracelet kind of strap. I like that kind of strap when I'm not moving around too much (going to the city for a drink f.e.) so I don't want a bulky camera strap, but I do want some protection. Wrist strap is perfect in that scenario. Again here the quick release allows me to easily switch between straps and also switch straps between different cameras.
@@MikeC2K10 In windy conditions having your camera on a tripod with a strap flapping about is the last thing you want, so being able to remove the strap quickly is imperative.
My guy, the main reason is when you put it on you don’t have to worry about the orientation of how you put it on, with peak design if it’s on “backwards” you have to take it off and do it again
Dyneema is straight up love coming from a climber. That thin strand surely can hold a grown adult
Let alone a camera
@@pandabear-k7e Its not the main rope, but its used for slings, webbing, belay seups, etc.

@@HntrCmpisn’t dyneema used in ultralight backpacking to make super light but strong bags and tents?
A problem with Dyneema is, that it gets brittle when exposed to the sun. That's why rock climbers only use such gear for 3 years max.
Kodak released a really cool quick release strap, and it’s aluminum not plastic.
@@josephsaleh9029 that thing looks cool as hell, thanks for sharing!
Not big in absolute terms but relatively. PGY Tech uses a bead vs. the disk in PD… maybe 1/3 or 1/4 the size.

If you don’t put it on the right way then you have to take it off and do it again, the ball makes it so it doesn’t have the issue
ofc as soon as i get my peak design this comes out
Don’t worry, PD is the superior product. I’ve had my same clips for 6 years of continuous use without issue

Almost happened to me too
@@michaelkindmanjust bought the wrist strap it’s not bad for half the price
Dude this isn’t new at all it’s been out for a while

Mb its a good rope material, but the plastic thing what cache the ball and the spring inside it....
Anyway, thanks for vid, love u channel
If it's the right type of plastic and properly designed, it should be plenty strong and no problem at all.
Ulanzi falcam also have somewhat similar system
Ya, peak design or nothing. I appreciate the one hand operability
Idk my favourite were SunSniper
I like that Oreo
Ulanzi does that too! Even though it is super resistant, I wouldn't strap a huge camera with it cause it's kinda scary but I got that kind of attachement on all my mft cameras and it's great!

@@JacobG-M big discs? You must not mean peak design because the discs are about the same size but flat… PD also makes adapters
I’m sold, gonna try it on my Sinar large format and see if I can wear it around my neck
That sounds like the worst idea 😂
Thanks a lot!!! Now I have to spend more money....I do like the design though and every point has been an issue I've had...I hate logic sometimes 😮💨

Product name
It's at the start of the video
How much are they?
Last I checked just under 50 us on Amazon for a complete neck strap setup.
Microwave likes your channel
Can I have the blue one?
CONSOOOOOOM
Sure I'll trust the fiber to support me, but my camera is something that im not gonna take that risk with.
No my question is WHY ON EARTH, do phones not have attach points too, just like cameras, most more expensive phones are easily over 1k and if you want to have strap like this well u have to use a STUPID CASE, why not dear apple n Samsung just give us attach points
Cause most people won’t use it so why bother
Not trusting it until I see some testing
I sold pd slite and bought pgytech 😂
Strong rope. Yes however the plastic still basic plastic cheers
It's cool and all, but why would I want to take my camera strap off?

There’s literally so many reasons to do so
nothing beats the good old strap your camera comes with
Yes plenty of straps do, I thought that too, til I got a peak design quick release strap and haven’t gone back since.
er wat
Ok...just hope that ball doesnt bounce out of the hole lol...
It's clamped on pretty tight 😅
@@TomCalton So how can it freely rotate..?
Love to have em if there are no plastics.
Ooooo am I the 1st one ?
Ye
👏 👏👏
It is some BS. Why would your camera be spinning around? Do you use it as a cat toy?
My guy, the main reason is when you put it on you don’t have to worry about the orientation of how you put it on, with peak design if it’s on “backwards” you have to take it off and do it again
Looks thin. Not trusting $8000 to that
lol this is a Peak Design ripoff
No, it isn't, Peak Design uses the discs mentioned in the voiceover. This is the same principle executed differently enough to not be a ripoff.
@@maxx_2245Exactly. Same concept - different execution.
