The Reporter Strap™ addresses the needs of today's active photographers who use two cameras to cover the diverse photo challenges presented in their work. Now two cameras or a camera/binocular combination can be comfortably worn with only one strap - the Reporter Strap™ . This allows you to have better control of your gear while reducing the chance of damaging expensive equipment.
The Reporter Strap™ has quick disconnects on the primary strap so that using different connectors is a snap. The popular OP/TECH USA 3/8" Connectors are standard on the primary strap. The secondary strap attaches to the main strap body with durable plastic clamps similar to the Reporter/Backpack System Connector. It features the exclusive OP/TECH USA Uni-Loop Connectors which are compatible with numerous OP/TECH USA neck straps, hand straps, and harnesses. Top quality neoprene reinforced with durable elastic makes the equipment feel like half the weight. The Reporter Strap™ is also great for wildlife photographers carrying both a camera and binoculars at once. When in the field for long periods of time, OP/TECH USA's weight reduction comfort can make all the difference.

Question:
I could not thread the 'Uni Loop" through the camera connection point on the Secondary Strap like it shows on the picture. Is there a trick to it? My problem is the "Uni Loop" is too thick and stiff to work through the connection point. HELP!! :)
Answer:
There is a little trick for getting the Uni Loop through really tight connection areas on cameras. Take a piece of thread and loop it through the Uni Loop. Then pull the thread through the connection area on your camera. By pulling on the thread you should be able to pull the Uni Loop through the connection area.
If this doesn't work you can also try using a round metal key ring. Get one small enough that will loop through the connection area of your camera and then attach the Uni Loop to the key ring.
