    Olympus leather straps for Evolt

    Question...could anyone that has purchased one of these tell me if "Made In China" is conspicuously marked on these like on the one that comes with the camera. Every place I found that sells them doesn't have any detailed photos of it to tell or not.

    Thanks.

    Re: Olympus leather straps for Evolt

    I haven't purchased any straps and am still using the ones that came with my cameras. They work fine even holding 9lbs of glass with my 50 - 500 hanging from it.

    Here is a link to the real thing. I would bet they are all made in China. What isn't?

    Yes, I figured the leather ones would be MIC as well, but hoping is wasn't advertised as boldly as the basic one.

    I like this much better than the leather strap,much wider around the neck and very very soft.
    makes it easy to endure the weight of e510 even with the 50-200 attached
