Great review. Re the magnet to hold the strap together, you might look around CZcams for something like "Peak Design strap hack" because there's a good explanation of how you can use an extra PD anchor to turn the PD strap into a sling (basically attach an anchor to one end of the strap, then connect that anchor to the other end of the strap). This turns out to be a great idea, imo, and means you can connect to the PD strap with only one anchor on the camera (since the strap is now a loop). Arguably not as clean as the magnet design, but has some advantages too.
Which one of the on camera quick release less likely to make the dangling sound when handheld shooting video or put on gimbal without the need to take it off. That is my main concern.
Dangling sound comes from the buttons. All straps have the button it is unavoidable really. One thing you can do is either hold it tight against your neck to stretch the strap or wrap it around your wrist. If mounting on tripod then take it off
Hey, great video, thank you for the useful information. I’m just wondering something, you showed the thickness between the Ulanzi and PGYTech, but how about the Peak design and PGYTech? Which is thicker? I’d appreciate your answer, thank you
Hey thanks for watching! So the neck portion PGY tech has way more padding so it’s thicker in that sense as well as wider. The actually strap portion is about the same as peak design maybe very tiny bit thinner. Difference is super minor that you can barely tell.
I did email their customer support to ask if it should have had one or if there is a different version available with the magnet but they didn't reply.
Apparently PGYtech support said they took out the magnet because it interfered with camera operations… didn’t for me at all and I used Sony, Nikon and Ricoh and Leica at some point.
@@ToasterVentura i read on a few forums that if the magnets touched the camera screen, it causes it go to crazy (as magnets often do with screens). probably not enough to damage it, but enough to cause some people to be concerned

Oh awesome let me look that up!!! Thanks for the tip and appreciate your time watching my video!
How about the smell of the padding of PGYTECH and Falcam afterward?
Not sure I didn’t sweat in it before I returned it. But my guess is it depends on the person
Hi
I have problem when importing a video
For example if the video is 1 hour or 40m
It will only transfer the first 25m
For what camera and what computer you talking about??

Can you adjust the slider/adjuster past the grippy material to make it really short on the slide lite?
No you reach the grippy stuff and it stops

Thanks for the review. I watched it and opted for the pgytech strap. Mine doesn't have the magnetic buckles though. Might send it back.
It should have magnet. It’s a very nice feature I would exchange it for another one
did you send it back? im in the same situation, it’s annoying

@scottk747 Amazon?
@ToasterVentura Bought from amazon but tried to contact pgytech directly on their website.
I got the pgytech but it does not have magnets on both ends. Disappointing
You are the second person who said that. I wonder if there was a change in the design but that is crappy man sorry to hear that
Same, every blogger says about that magnets, but I don't see in my pgytech

@iOxideAUS nah not for any of my cameras and I have 3 Sony and 1 Nikon . PGYtech also stopped adding the magnet already
