Product Description

The Transporter by Lowepro was designed for the professional or core enthusiast photographer who works with multiple cameras, binoculars or other photography equipment. The unique design includes a comfortable, non-slip shoulder pad that stays in place even when the strap is adjusted to a variety of lengths or swung completely out of the way while using another piece of equipment. A detachable memory card wallet provides quick access to cards while shooting. Two quick-release buckles make switching from one camera body to another fast and easy while double ladder-locks ensure a secure connection between the strap and the camera for maximum stabilization.

Customer Reviews

The ring broke after 2 months usage
I am disappointed with the product. I use it on Canon 40D for 1 month, around 3-4 times a week and one of the ring broke (the one that connected to the camera).

The straps has little pockets that store 2 extra Compact Flash cards,
when I am in shooting in portrait orientation, this container often annoy me by blocking my view.

The shoulder strap is fine and better than Canon strap that I get.

Nice strap, but attachment to camera gets in the way
The idea of a detachable strap is great, but in LowePro's Transporter design, the quick release and buckles on the camera attachment are too big, stiff and bulky, even for a pro camera body. They were always in the way of the controls and the LCD on the camer. They also impaired holding the camera -- I was fighting the dongles all the time. It was a relief to get this thing off the camera. It's OK as a secondary strap for a large lens or a medium camera case, where is is not on the camera itself.

The detachable memory card carrier is a throw-away; there are better places to stow a card, where you don't have to rip your way through a rat nest of Velcro to get to it. The slip-resistant silkscreen pattern on the shoulder pad is rather ineffective -- needs to be tackier. In sum: a good concept, poor execution; needs a serious rework.

Good replacement for standard straps
This strap is very comfortable and adjusts to a greater carying length than the cheap one which comes with your SLR. Its benefit is particularly felt when carrying a larger telephoto zoom for a while. The card storage envelope is a nice touch and does not get in the way when raising the camera for a shot. The quick release clips may come in handy when switching camera bodies in the field - though you will have to buy a second strap for this. Manufacturing quality is in keeping with Lowe's high standard for rugged nylon gear.
