Yesterday, we shared a fairly basic tip of how to properly put up a light stand. Today, we’re back with another basic tutorial. This time, it’s how to properly attach a camera strap.

While this might seem up to personal preference or insignificant, it’s important to realize that more often than not, a camera strap is the only line of defense between a camera being safely wrapped around ones neck and crashing face first into the ground.

In the two minute video, Shotkit shows how to best attach a strap so that it will be both secure and look good, without loose ends to flap around while walking. This particular strap is from the Fujifilm X Pro2, but the same concept can be applied to any DSLR or mirrorless.
