Kaikoura New Zealand – Wedding, People and Commercial Photography
I just noticed there’s a javascript hiccup when you try to look at single images when there’s a slideshow post on the same page. Probably best to open the post you want to view in its own window and I’ll see if I can fix this some time!
I thought I had a wrist strap for my Canon G9, seems I did then I didn’t, I’m not sure, but ends up I don’t. You really need a wrist strap for these compact hi tech digi cameras that don’t have a decent viewfinder. Having a wrist strap means you can make images while holding your camera at arm length with the comforting feeling of knowing that if your finger grip gives out your camera isn’t going to land on the concrete or fall over a bluff.
I’d rather a decent viewfinder, but it seems that isn’t going to happen any time soon, and anyway, you can make some pretty cool images while waving your camera around at arms length.
I got on to these Gordy camera straps and liked the look of the simple, no gimmick, no logo, no bling design and build. Looked good to me so I ordered one and it arrived from the other side of the world a bit over a week later. I was a little excited about opening the bubble wrap envelope when it arrived and I gasped when I got a healthy smell of real cured leather when I opened the envelope flap.
First impressions – simple, solid and quality. Fitting the strap to the camera reaffirmed all these things, Gordy obviously hand builds these straps with a lot of pride and quality control. They are as tough as the proverbial leather hide, the leather is none-slip on your wrist, they are as comfortable as grandma’s old leather sofa and I reckon will probably outlast 1/2 dozen Canon G9s.
If you need a camera strap I would seriously suggest checking these out at Gordy’s web site.
As for the Canon G9, yeah that’s not bad either. I’m going to write a users review of that soon too, as if the internet really needs another self appointed expert G9 review!
Just a wee taste of what was a stunning day on Mt Fyffe with a great looking couple.
Thanks for sharing the day with me Guys, looks like some pretty cool images here
