Product Information

Full details

The Peak Design Slide Camera Strap in Kelp is for photographers seeking a versatile, comfortable, and stylish strap for their digital cameras. Its key benefit is the ability to quickly switch between sling, neck, and shoulder carry styles with smooth transitions. A minor caveat is that the vegan leather material, while durable, requires specific care to maintain its finish. This strap combines a low-profile design with robust functionality, featuring quick-connecting anchors, dual adjusters, and internal padding.

FAQs

What is the maximum weight capacity of the Peak Design Slide strap?

Each Anchor connector is rated to hold over 90 kg (200 lbs), making the strap system exceptionally strong and capable of supporting even the heaviest professional camera setups.

Can I use this strap with any camera?

Yes, the strap is designed to be compatible with most digital cameras, including DSLRs and mirrorless systems, through the use of the included Anchor connectors that attach to standard camera eyelets.

How do I switch between sling and neck carry modes?

Simply adjust the strap length using the dual quick-adjusters. For sling mode, lengthen the strap to allow the camera to hang at your hip. For neck or shoulder mode, shorten the strap accordingly.

Is the mounting plate included necessary for use?

The mounting plate is included for users who prefer to attach the anchors to the plate rather than directly to camera eyelets, or for those who want easy compatibility with ArCa-Swiss tripod heads. You can use the strap without the plate by attaching anchors directly to your camera.

How should I clean the vegan leather parts of the strap?

Wipe the vegan leather gently with a slightly damp cloth. For more stubborn dirt, use a cleaner specifically formulated for vegan leather. Avoid soaking the material or exposing it to excessive heat.

What is the length range of the strap?

The strap is adjustable, with a minimum length of 99 cm (39 inches) and a maximum length of 145 cm (57 inches).

Can the Anchor connectors be removed easily?

Yes, the Anchor connectors feature a quick-release system. Press the button on the connector to release the anchor loop from the strap's clip.

Troubleshooting

Strap feels too long or too short

Use the dual quick-adjusters located on each side of the strap to lengthen or shorten it to your desired fit. Slide the adjuster tab away from the clip to lengthen, and towards the clip to shorten.

Camera feels unstable when worn as a sling

Ensure the grippy side of the webbing is against your shoulder or body for better traction. Adjust the strap length for a snugger fit.

Anchor connectors are difficult to attach/detach

Ensure the Anchor cords are properly seated within the Anchor housing. Press firmly on the quick-release button. If stiffness persists, check for debris and ensure the anchor loop is not twisted.

Vegan leather accents showing wear

Clean gently with a damp cloth. For persistent marks, use a cleaner specifically designed for vegan leather. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or high heat.

Strap slips off shoulder unexpectedly

Ensure the grippy side of the strap is facing inwards towards your clothing. Try adjusting the strap length for a more secure fit, or consider wearing it in a sling configuration.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly adaptable to different shooting scenarios and personal preferences.
  • Quick and easy strap length adjustments.
  • Secure and reliable anchor connection system.
  • Comfortable for extended wear due to internal padding.
  • Supports the weight of heavy professional camera bodies and lenses.
  • Stylish and professional appearance.

Cons

  • Vegan leather requires specific care to maintain its appearance.
  • The initial setup of anchor connectors might take a few minutes.
  • Can be slightly bulkier than minimalist strap designs.
  • The smooth side might slip excessively on certain synthetic fabrics.
  • The dual quick adjusters can snag on loose clothing if not managed carefully.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Initial Setup:

  1. Attach the four included Anchor connectors to your camera's eyelets or to the included ArCa-Swiss compatible mounting plate. Ensure they are securely fastened.
  2. Connect the strap's quick-release clips to the Anchor connectors on your camera.
  3. Adjust the strap length using the dual quick-adjusters to your preferred configuration (sling, neck, or shoulder).

Compatibility:

  • Cameras: Suitable for most digital cameras, including DSLRs and mirrorless systems, via the Anchor connection points.
  • Tripods: The included mounting plate is ArCa-Swiss compatible, allowing it to be used with most ArCa-Swiss style tripod heads.
  • Clothing: The strap features two sides of webbing: one smooth for gliding over clothing, and one grippy to prevent slipping. Performance may vary slightly on very slick synthetic materials.

Care Instructions:

  • Strap: Clean the nylon webbing with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals. Allow to air dry completely.
  • Vegan Leather Accents: Wipe with a slightly damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized vegan leather cleaner. Avoid excessive moisture and direct heat, which can degrade the material over time.
  • Anchors: Regularly inspect Anchor connectors and cords for any signs of wear or damage. Replace if frayed or compromised.
