Camera Hook Plus a Safety Hook
HMM! Flickr Friends.
For this week's theme, Hook, I decided to photograph the object most often in my hands for capturing images; my Canon RP.
The hook and subjects are those precious hooks that keep the camera and lens from falling further than the length of my arms. I use a cross-body strap that has a carabiner attached to an eyelet stud in the tripod mount.
Why 2 hooks? One time in the field with the camera I reached down picking it up and the eyelet had unscrewed to the point it fell off the camera just as I was raising it to my eye! ... so when I got home I immediately ordered a "safety cord" that could be attached to the camera with a 2nd carabiner on the other end that attaches to the strap. The camera often hangs by the strap on the hall tree next to my photography "vest of many pockets" which provides the background for the image. The image this week is captured with the Nikon 1 V3 and the 18.5mm, f/1.8 lens that can focus very close.
Thanks in advance for your Views, Favs and Comments.
