CAMERA - LENS - SPECIFICATIONS

Each camera strap pad has an IDEAL carry weight and MAX carry weight. The Ideal carry weight to match the strap pad = the weight the camera PLUS the lens.
With perhaps one exception these straps will hold more than you can and more than you should.

Camera - Megapixels - Aperture - Lens Weights and Filter Sizes

Make note of your camera + lens weights. Grams are easier and more accurate to calculate as they are in base 10. You can then convert grams into pounds. When you carry different lenses, camera bodies, flash, motor drives, or tripod determine the range and average carry weight. Sometimes it is better to separate items into smaller modular bags. You can “stack” UPstrap®s on your shoulder. You can pack smaller bags into a larger bag or a backpack.

Every camera, sling, bag strap and wrist strap we make will hold more weight than your wrist should and probably can.

The weakest camera strap we make is rated about 50 lbs. The strongest is rated at 500 lbs. 


Also provided are specifications of the camera resolution, card slots, pixels, lens aperture and filter sizes.
