This strap is solid. The quality is good and should last me a longtime. The push button lock and release mechanism works perfectly. It is comfortable for me to walk around with.My sling bag does not have a tripod holder and I did not want to buy another bag. I could have brought my tripod case, but I did not want to have another bulky item to carry around. This detachable strap allows me to have a compact setup as possible. When im done with my shoot I just detach the strap and thow it in my bag. I plan to outfit all of my tripods with this system. Leofoto has created a very useful strap carrying tripod system for my needs.
