I bought this to put around my 11 year-olds wrist so he would quit dropping expensive fishing rods off the pier at the beach. It attaches and detaches easily and water doesn't seem to effect its usage. Good product but I thought a little pricey but you get what you pay for.

I bought this to try instead of a neck strap. It gives the freedom of hand holding your camera while securing against drops. I recently purchased and prefer the non-velcro version since it lets my wrist breath more, feels more secure because there is no velcro to secure, and it is quicker and easier to put on. Other than that this is still, in my opinion, an improvement over a neck strap in most situations.

I bought this for my Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS7 camera not realizing that the hole on the side of my camera was going to be too small for the attachement on the Wrist Strap.

This would be good for bigger cameras that can accommodate the bigger sized "loop" that you thread through the hole.

This is my second Gotcha Wrist Strap. I lost the first and liked it so well I immediately ordered another. I tend to be forgetful so, with the strap, I don't set the camera down and absentmindedly walk away leaving it behind. Also makes me feel the camera is secure when I am in unfamiliar settings - hard to imagine someone would try to snatch it off my wrist. If you inadvertently loose your grip on the camera it doesn't fall to the ground because it is anchored to your wrist. The Neoprene band is very comfortable and has a large range of adjustability. Excellent product at a reasonable price.

This is a wider, more comfortable wrist strap than any that will come in the camera box as an "free" accessory. I prefer the comfort and security of these wider, padded velcro straps.

Everyone knows what a wrist strap does and some of us have had to let go of the camera suddenly. This strap won't cut into your wrist when that happens. (It has happened to me while walking the dogs.)

As a matter of fact they are comfortable to have on your wrist and so you won't resent it or forget to use it. My wrist is so used to wearing this kind of strap that I feel uneasy if it isn't in place first.

There are wider straps out there and I prefer them but I did order this one for my husband who really doesn't care but likes to shoot out the window as we drive along. He can feel the strap in place and knows that he can point and shoot (without a nag from me.)

It is not easy to insert into that tiny slot on the camera. I just used the original strap because I was in a hurry and attached this strap to that strap. One of these days....
