My four-year-old daughter has started grabbing my camera during our travels and taking her own photos, which is adorable, so now we give her an old Panasonic travel zoom to use.
The only problem: I can’t find a camera strap that’s short enough for her. Most straps are way too long, and I’d love something around 70–90 cm (ideally adjustable) so it actually fits comfortably around her neck and doesn’t dangle dangerously low.
Does anyone know of camera strap brands or specific products that make short or kid-sized adjustable straps? Tips appreciated!
I was in a similar (or exact same?) situation:
and found nothing that I considered safe.
Why not buy whatever brand and have it shortened by your local tailor?
or a local shoe repair shop, or if you are lucky enough a saddle shop.
how about a longer than normal handstrap? you could also weave some kind of braid, I remember seeing a similarly young child with a DSLR around her neck some years ago, it was dangling near her feet
