I use an Optech tripod strap for my large Manfrotto (055B) tripod.
Apparently it is better than the proprietary strap.
Hi Chris,
I can't comment on the practicality of the Manfrotto strap cause I
can't find anyone that can tell me how the manufacturer expected
people to use the durn thing. So, the strap stays in a drawer and I
either throw the tripod over a shoulder, grab it by one leg or
attach it to the Lowpro bag - depending on how far I'm going.
Later,
Johnny
There is a ring on the side of my Manfrotto tripod where two of the
legs come together. Apparently the strap clips into this one point
so that as you carry it swings and bangs into you. Not very smart
design. Two points to mount the strap would make more sense.
