Can anyone recommend a hand strap for the S body? I've seen the Peak Design Clutch one. Just wondering what else others have found.

thanks

I've been using one called "Camdapter Pro Strap" for years. It's attached to an RRS Arca plate. I think that the plate is a generic "SLR" model, not specific to the S.

The strap is quite wide and comfortable, made from decent quality leather.

I've used Peak straps with lighter cameras, but it's always seemed too flimsy for something as heavy (and expensive) as the S. The peak string should change colour from black to red before it breaks, so there is some visual indication that it's due for replacement.

I also use the "Leica S-Hand Strap" on the SL (with the dedicated RRS SL plate). That strap is designed to fit on the S battery pack. It didn't feel great on the S attached to the RRS plate, but it works very well on the SL.
