Could not have clicked on a more informative and well put together video thanks!

[@GreenPeasProductions]

Hey Dave, made one of these before leaving for Africa for 3 weeks, worked really well as a backup.

[@BasicFilmmaker]

Hazzah! You're back! ...not that you ever left. Can you please point me to a link where I can download some of your impeccably awesome comedic timing? Thanks! :)

[@gm24ace]

Hazzah! Indeed!

[@knoptop]

I make a 'DIY how to' on it. :)

[@BasicFilmmaker]

knoptop I'd buy it. :)

[@joebeck0]

Awesome! Just made one, and I used two cords so I could use a buckle for easy dis-assembly, paracord is AWESOME!

[@ChrisBrown1957]

Nice idea. Time to replace my straps. One thought - just for aesthetics; rather than tie the ends, there are little clips you can buy where you pass single cord / both cords through a hole, where they are gripped by tiny teeth. You then fold over the top, and it snaps closed, gripping the cord. I know you can get them for 3mm cord, but larger sizes may need some reasearch

[@wattage]

Nice and simple, Knoptop! Great tip. Glad to see that you're back!

[@stubryanfull]

that's really usefull. I had to take my neck strap of during filming but when I use my camera to take photos I don't want to have to put the strap back on . thanks

[@GrantJohnstonVideos]

Nice - was just wondering about this today for my 70D!

[@weissbornjr]

FWIW, you can get the adapters with and without an AF (AutoFocus) confirm chip. This does NOT magically allow autofocus to work. What it does do, however, is allow the focus system in your camera to beep or flash the "in-focus" light. Very handy especially since most DSLRs don't have any manual focus ground-glass like the old 35mm SLRs did.

Hi ho, hi ho, it's off to Walmart I go! Welcome back Knop!

[@PhilippinesDarrellCheeks]

You put a lot of effort into these videos! You deserve more views. =)

[@whatsinanamewin1912]

Hi there...when is the focus buddy tutorial coming out? Dying to see that one. Awesome videos...love each and everyone Peace✌

[@FotodioxInc]

Nice video! Thanks for the shout-out : )

[@PostColorGear]

Great tip Dave! How do you like that lens? That 50mm 1.4 LIVES on my camera most of the time unless I need a different lens.

[@jamesdemello3629]

Dave, what lens is that? Canon FD?

[@PostColorGear]

Olympus OM - great little lens. Manual focus. Good bokeh. Long throw. Great for slow focusing.

[@dennisnatrayon2939]

You're hilarious,man! Thank you for the videos. They're pretty kickass!

[@gm24ace]

Sad trombone for the "thing" in the hat. Sweet!

[@Evanna11LilyLuna]

I personally like to use a wii controller strap, but this is cool too!

[@knoptop]

Great idea!

[@raumschifffilms3592]

I hope you gonna make more videos in the future...i love them :)

[@knoptop]

thanks for watching! yes, more coming soon!

[@DavidRFIT]

knoptop Yeah, you should do more videos... low quantity of videos is the only problem of this channel, I think.

[@UalakaaFilms]

Cool video. Mahalo. Will be making some soon.

[@NatesFilmTutorials]

Vintage Glass the best!

[@BryanElliott1]

Would love to see a good homemade telepromter option

[@CheapGeek]

Good idea! I like this. :)

[@uglygiantbagsofmostlywater]

Gotta love those Olympus lenses.

[@TheKimmak]

[@LarnedJustin]

Great tip. I loik it A Lot...........

[@MJStudiosTV]

[@MuhammadMundir]

very useful thanks

[@LeahRebecca]

cool I'm your 42,001th subscriber

[@knoptop]

Yay! Thanks for watching!!

[@xxgg]

Is there a way to make the strap little more thicker? Say double up? I tired doubling up the cord but it is hard to make same knot. Or maybe there is much thicker paracord?

[@GavinRemme]

First! Anyway, love flitetest and knoptop!

[@mykeaperry3538]

Hey, love your stuff, 'fast fun filming effects' i live by that. Ive been trying to do some film making tutorials and hope to do some more, could you maybe give me some advice in your videos and talk bait about my channel? Thanks. Keep it up!

[@EdwinNoorlander]

Nice blooper.

[@Hdtyt]

Is that a SL1?

[@heimole7312]

I love you!

[@drillthrallable]

I enjoy your site but until GoogleTube turns off autoplay I won't be returning.

[@vfxathome]

do you work with flitetest?

[@GavinRemme]

Yes, he films it.

[@McNair1952]

I would not trust the last knot you tied, man made rope like the one you used does not always tighten up securely. Maybe you could melt the ends together.

[@MikesCarInfo]

I have this on all my cameras now! kzbin.info/www/bejne/Zp-upX-BgMuUjaM

que horrible esta esa madre !!

[@shaunlendrim4458]

Wherever your buying your paracord from your being ripped off, a few dollars for 28in of paracord, hahaha. I have to say that was funnier than your humour, oh and try and speaking English (oops sorry American) all the time rather than foreign words.
