Fuji GX680 Neck Strap

[rmann]

Is there an option for a GX680 neck strap besides the Fuji one? Would like to find something less expensive than the Fuji strap.

I have read that these straps, using the Option B connector, will work. Discussion about it here, with success attained in post #76 on page 2. Good luck!

Thanks for the links - looks very promising and priced right.

I have learned two things - first, the neck strap for a GX680I or GX680II is different than the strap for a GX680III. It has a metal bracket that will not fit on a GX680III because the knobs are slightly different on the camera body, and its base needs to attach to a Horseman quick release clamp. Second, S K Grimes makes a handle bracket for the GX680III, which is what I am really looking for, some way to handle the camera on and off the tripod, not necessarily shooting it handheld. So, I think I will be ordering the Grimes handle.

Dont mean to hijack this old thread, but I am looking for an old NICAD battery pack so I can try to build one adapter, does anyone here have one lying on the parts bin?

Thanks!!

Wow! At first I had visions of a handheld Gx680 and that is amazing
