Slide Camera Strap

As a professional photographer who spends long hours shooting in the field, I can confidently say the Peak Design Slide camera strap is the best I’ve ever used. Its build quality is exceptional, combining durable, high-grade materials with a sleek, modern design. The quick-adjust sliders allow effortless transitions between carrying styles, while the Anchor Link system makes swapping cameras or setups seamless and secure. I shoot with a Nikon D6 and a variety of lenses, and by the end of the day, it remains comfortable to carry around. Simply put, the Slide delivers the perfect balance of functionality, comfort, and style, making it an indispensable tool for any serious photographer.

Peak Design Delivers Again — The Only Strap You’ll Ever Need! I’ve tried a lot of camera straps over the years, but the Peak Design Slide SL-BK-3 is the one that finally made me stop searching. From unboxing to first use, this thing screams quality and smart design. The materials feel ultra-premium — the smooth seatbelt-style webbing glides beautifully over your clothes without catching, yet has enough grip on one side to stay put when you want it to. The hardware is all metal and feels rock solid, and the quick-adjust handles are genius. Tighten it up, loosen it out — all one-handed, super fluid, super fast. The Anchor Link system is the real game-changer. I can switch this strap between my DSLR and mirrorless bodies in seconds, or remove it entirely when I’m shooting on a tripod. No more fighting with fiddly loops or clips. It’s also incredibly comfortable for long shoots. The strap distributes weight evenly, even with a heavier setup like a 70-200mm lens. After a full day of street photography, I barely noticed the load. Stylish, sturdy, smart — Peak Design knocked it out of the park with this one. If you care about your gear and your neck/shoulders, just buy it. You won’t regret it.

As a freelance photographer who's constantly on the move, I've tried a lot of camera straps over the years — most of them either cut into my shoulder after a few hours or look like they were designed in the '90s. The Peak Design Slide strap completely changed that. Pros: ✅ Comfortable even with heavier gear. I’ve used it with my Canon R5 + 70-200mm lens for full-day shoots and barely noticed the weight. ✅ Quick adjustments. The aluminum quick-pull adjusters are smooth and let me switch from shoulder to sling carry in seconds. ✅ Secure attachment. The Anchor Link system is brilliant. Fast to connect/disconnect, yet feels rock solid. ✅ Sleek design. Minimalist but premium look — doesn’t scream “camera strap,” which I appreciate. ✅ Versatile. Works well with mirrorless or DSLR, and I’ve even used it on binoculars and bags. Cons: ⚠️ Slight learning curve with the anchor system at first. Took me a minute to trust it, but now I love it. ⚠️ On the pricier side — but honestly, you get what you pay for. Bottom line: If you’re serious about photography and value both form and function, this strap is absolutely worth the investment. It's one of those rare accessories that makes shooting genuinely more enjoyable.

I do a lot of bird photography and wander through the woods with my Nikon Z8 and 180-600mm rig worn in sling style over my left shoulder and neck with the camera resting on my right hip. I have used a Black Rapid strap for the last few years but purchased this Peak Design strap after seeing the one my son purchased. This strap is much more comfortable than the BR strap. The BR strap had plastic adjuster clips that were bulky and became uncomfortable as the camera moved around during the course of a hike. Those clips also didn't stay locked and required occasional readjustments to keep the padded part of the strap on your shoulder. The Peak Design strap has re-engineered that problem with flat clips that work and don't come loose, plus the strap is wide from end to end, so it is always in a comfortable position. Also, the PD strap has a unique way it attaches to your camera that I find works much better than the BR strap and makes it easy to remove from the camera when needed. This strap seems to be a great value for the money as the materials and construction all appear to be top of the line. This delivered in beautiful packaging with extra connectors, an attachment plate for your camera if needed, an allen wrench and instructions. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this strap to any of my photog friends.

I absolutely love this strap. Because of the PD quick disconnect system it’s easy to take on & off the camera. It’s very comfortable and I like the adjustable buckle system making it a breeze to adjust the length. I have complete confidence in the quick disconnect system- that it will stay firmly in place until I want to disconnect it from the camera, and that I can do it quickly without difficulty. Worth the price.

Peak Design really makes some great gear. I'll be honest I was skeptical of how good this strap would be, I thought the price was kinda high and was going to go with pgytech but I'm so glad I didn't!!! My camera feels secure, it's perfect as a crossbody, the strap is super comfy, and as an avid hiker I feel like my gear is protected. I use the same plate as my capture clip so it's compatible and I honestly love the setup so much I'm going to get another strap for my 2nd camera. I love how easy it is release the anchors when I don't want the strap as well. I highly recommend getting this.

これまで使用したストラップのなかで段違いの使い易さ、安心感、使い心地。 幅広ストラップのため、フルサイズ一眼レフに望遠ズームを付けたようなシチュエーションでも肩に優しく、なんと言っても着脱容易なアタッチメントが秀逸。 値段は高いが十二分に満足です。

Material y calidad. Muy bien. Más cómoda que la original de Nikon (en mi caso) la suavidad del material y el grosor hacen que sea más placentero llevar cámara y teleobjetivo. No digo que quite peso, que no, pero la sensación es diferente.

Sehr bequem und angenehm zu tragen

Tracolla professionale, molto comoda e pratica. Gli agganci alla macchina sono molto comodi e pratici da usare.Costruita con materiali di prima qualità, sta molto bene al collo, non produce arrossamenti dove viene a contatto, non da sudore. Ha un modo di regolazione della lunghezza molto pratico e comodo da utilizzare. L'unico neo, se di neo si può parlare, è il prezzo. Ma si sa, le cose di buona qualità si pagano. Consigliato per chi porta per molto tempo la macchina a tracolla.

Belle largeur qui assure un appui suffisant sur l’épaule, intéressant pour des boîtiers plutôt lourds, F2 dans mon cas. La partie centrale reste plate une fois retiré de l’épaule ce qui peut surprendre certains. Pour le reste le système Peak Design n’est plus à valoriser, le système d’ancres à demeure sur le boîtier est très pratique (pas de gêne lors de la manipulation du boîtier) offrant confort et sécurité et le système d’ajustement est très intelligent. Concernant le design vert/inserts cuir, il convient à merveille pour des appareils vintage. Le prix reste élevé mais je pense qu’on en a pour quelques années de tranquillité.
