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.

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.

      X-s10 Fast shutting 20/30 fps crop ES

      By mapoett · Posted

      Hello. Thankyou,now Is all more clear: I have take some time in your link. Let tell you. I has totaly forget this machine have "compress picture option" and not Only "compress lossless" anyway not change the experiment. RAW  and this last two format look like same result about Number of recording picture. Can tell all results in this: in raw you can make 17 pictures for second. Is wrong. Is about One single Press and wait buffer. Full 30/20/10/8 not change. After 17 Need Press again. You not can Press before "redgreen light recording Is on".   With preshot you can have 25  are more 7 pictures . The story change Only in jpg shot only. In jpg at 30 you have 30 picture but redgreen light off very Fast so you can shot very quicly. At 20 shot Is about start look like infinite shot. 60. So the best performance are this last One  about Speed and recording picture after camera working witout big limit. I want take a shot about Italy cyclet Just for passion. I think i Will use this last setting.  After Need check when battery not are full change and ambient temp.  Anyway my cam look like exactly specific about you link. Im Happy my cam working perfectly.

      I do not use Flickr, so I do not know what their BB code is. All I did was copy the second link you provided, (starting at https: and ending at  _k.jpg — leave off the [img] and [/img] tags) and pasted it into the message. After a moment, a message popped up asking if I wanted to paste it as the image or as a plain link. I did this twice, the first time I had it paste in as the image and the second time as a link. Nothing fancy or tricky.

      So do I just copy the BB code from flickr and paste it anywhere on the page like other forums or is there some other trick I need to perform to get it to post?

      X Raw Studio Doesn't Create Drive for Camera When Connected

      By JovialLich · Posted

      All software is the latest between camera and app. All settings are correct on camera. I have both lossless and uncompressed RAW files on the card in the camera. I have been up and down every reddit thread to no avail and am losing my mind… I’m doing all of the right things. It even sees my camera. It just doesn’t create the “drive” for it (see attached image screenshot).  Please Help!

      X-T30 II Eye Sensor + LCD Image Display viewmode not working

      By grizzski · Posted

      Not sure how to delete threads, but I figured out what was wrong. In short, I was partially misunderstanding the view-mode's function. Also, the "+LCD Image Display" part requires that you have the Image Disp. setting set to anything but Off. Then it will display your last image on the LCD. If it's off, it's behavior will be exactly like the plain Eye Sensor setting.
