The string connecting the camera to the strap broke the very first time I took it out into the water. I watched in horror as my camera quickly sank to the bottom. There were no rough waves or strong currents – I was swimming smoothly along the surface with the camera dangling from my wrist when the string just snapped. Everything was connected properly – the little string just broke right at the apex. I wish I’d tested it on dry land first.

Seeing as cameras on their own don’t float this is neccesity for underwater photography. I have had occasions when the camera falls out of my kayak or out of pocket and the stap not only floats but the orange color make it easy to find. My only complaint is the collars inability to become large enough for me to put the camera around my neck. It will only function as a hand strap. I like the quick attachment that allow it to be easily removed however it would be nice if there was an easy way to attach a traditional hand strap to it. I was able to attach both a traditional hand stap and the collar strap quick connect on my camera but it wasn’t easy since the attachment ring on my camera is designed for a single hand strap.

The strap makes my water proof camera floats. I am a bit concern about the plastic attachment available to disconnect the camera from the strap, is working fine but the material and button type makes me nervous about loosing my camera if not handled with care in the water.

I purchased this floating strap to use with a Panasonic TS-1 underwater camera. I used the camera extensively while snorkeling in the Caribbean on a recent cruise.
There’s not much to say, other than the item works as advertised. I kept the strap around my right wrist when photographing and fortunately never was forced to use it to “actually” save the camera. I wanted a bit of piece of mind, so I allowed the camera to go untethered from my wrist. The floating strap easily kept the camera from sinking.

The plastic connector between the camera and floatation device is designed for quick release–so you don’t have to carry the floatation device all the time. But it disconnected under moderate tension unexpectedly. Several times my camera dropped several feet after picking up the camera by the floatation device. Fortunately, the camera is shock proof. Fortunately, the waterproof camera had not been dropped overboard. I have secured the camera to the floatation device, but now it’s a pain to disconnect. I should have bought the more expensive one that Olympus offers.
