swivel trigger clip - strap

[jomagofa]

Can you advise some kind of swivel trigger clips to easy put on or take out the strap from an X-T10? 

 

Thanks.

Are you sure you want to use something as crude a system as swivel trigger clips?

 

Putting metal onto metal ( unless you want to risk  plastic) will certainly scratch your camera.

 

I'd much rather use something like this. Good luck!

I just use #6 stainless steel split rings.  They are small, and strong, and work flawlessly for my Peak Design straps.

rings are nice ( and Fuji provides also a free set next to the triangles ) , but they are murder to put in and out onto the camera. If I understand what OP wants he wants a system to quickly put a strap on and take it off at will

Before I turned to a combination of Peak Design and Black Rapid straps, I used to use Domke's 'Gripper Strap with Swivel Quick Release' with my X-T1s. Never had a problem with the swivels scratching the camera, though you'll have to watch how you position the strap when you stuff the camera into your bag - as long as it's brought to the front of the body and not resting against the LCD, it'll be fine.

i would like some kind of swivel quick release to put on the strap rings

I think something like this should work well ( you will need to adapt at least one side to your strap)

Some time ago I've decided to made custom metal hooks. They can be released in a second by rotating 180 degrees with putting extra force in the middle.

These hooks are made of very strong spring steel, used for bulldog paper clips. So they are very durable, and didn't fail for more then year of use.

That time I often switched finger/wrist/neck strap, and it was the most compact solution I could find.

Later I've realized the slim leather strap is most often used. So decided to attach it firm without extra parts in the following way.

I really like the “ studs” on the X-T1. I should think that it is a nut and bolt construction. 

 

If that is the case the only thing would be to make sure that the bolt cannot screw-off by mistake ( which can certainly be helped with the weakest of the Loctite Thread locker line, the 222 ).

 

You could certainly refine it a little bit and market this ( with a small tube of loctite to match).

Thanks for the recommendation on Loctite Thread locker, it will definitely help to make it more secure.

 

Sorry for off-top , do you also know good grease solution for helicoid adapter thread ? I've purchased Japanese helicoid grease #10 and #40 but it's too smooth and loose.

I'm looking for some grease that adds more tight move to helicoid.

[milandro]

Sorry, I can’t advise you on helicoid grease. I am not knowledgeable enough in these things.
