BlackRapid R-Strap – A Better Way to Carry your Camera
The BlackRapid R-Strap is the most innovative camera strap on the market today. The R-Strap is worn diagonally across the torso from shoulder to hip and is adjustable to fit most photographers. The pad has a mesh underside for comfort and breathability.
With the camera at your hip or behind your back, you can more easily maneuver through a crowd. With both hands free, you easily carry a tripod or other gear. Then, when you’re ready to take a shot, the camera quickly glides up the strap into a shooting position. Watch the video below to see a demo of the R-Strap.
Different R-Straps
RS-1: Black fabric, slim design, no storage pockets.
RS-2: Black fabric, slim design, has a spot for your ID or business cards, a cell phone/radio holder, a spare-battery pocket, and room for two CF cards.
RS-3: Black fabric, slim design, front external pocket is good for smaller cell phones (not compatible with iPhones or PDAs).
RS-4: Black fabric, front zippered pocket for storing small things like memory cards or business cards.
Sizing
The R-Straps are very adjustable. They measure 60″ (30″ from top of left shoulder to right hip). There is a sweet spot adjustment so when adjusting the R-Strap slide the camera up by pushing out slightly.
What you get
All of the R-Straps come with all of the hardware you need to get going. This includes the ConnectR-1 and the FastenR-1. You can purchase additional FastenRs if you want to quickly switch the R-Strap between multiple cameras.

You can order R-Straps directly from BlackRapid. They ship internationally. Or, check their dealer list for a dealer near you.

I’m so happy to read this. This is the type of manual that needs to be given and not the accidental misinformation that’s at the other blogs. Appreciate your sharing this best doc.
