This whole photography thing is new to me. An iPhone has been my camera for more than a decade. It's small, convenient and takes damn good photos.
Upgrading to a full-frame, mirrorless camera is a big change from a cost and learning curve perspective. Not knowing what I needed to keep my camera safe from harm and make it easy to carry around, I bought cage from SmallRig. The cage added weight and bulk and really wasn't an improvement. Knowing that I'm going to be lugging this thing around, I decided a simple strap that could affix to my wrist and the camera was likely all I needed to prevent dropping it.
While the strap won't protect it if I run into anything, for me a simple strap that easily attaches and detaches to my camera seems to be the ticket.
If the few instances where I have taken the camera out to shoot with it, adding this strap seemed like a no-brainer way to carry it around when I'm not in shooting mode. I also bought a Peak Design clip that would allow me to tether it to my belt or backpack strap. I haven't tried that yet, either.
Peak Design offers a nylon strap or the leather and nylon one I got. Nylon (or whatever they call it), seems like it could be better in wet weather, but cows stand in the rain, too, so I got the leather/nylon combo because it was readily available when I ordered it.
