Hi!
I recently bought a Mamiya 645 pro and I am having trouble finding the right strap for the certain clips that were provided with my camera. I attached some images of what my clips look like now. One seems to look a little differently/ have a higher bolt in the center than the other side
Any suggestions for types of straps I can buy for the clips/set up I currently have on my camera? I am hoping to find a sturdy cross body strap to wear when walking around
I apologize for not being able to explain the clips clearly. I know how the rest of the camera works and functions but for some reason the darn strap is the most confusing aspect of this camera!
Welcome to Photrio.
Congratulations on getting the right type of clips, with different clips for each side - that is actually the hard part!
The Mamiya strap I use with my 645 pro is a relatively narrow cloth strap with a wider neck pad.
I'll see if I can locate or create a photo that shows how the strap threads into the clips. In the meantime, this listing shows the type of strap you need: https://www.ebay.ca/itm/403021794732?hash=item5dd5f88dac:g:Ab8AAOSwDaJg~wAM
Thank you! A photo of how the strap threads into the clips would be incredibly helpful! I'm so lost on how to use these certain clips and I havent been able to find much help online
Thank you so much!!
The strap clip, pictured above, has two loops. I believe that the strap goes around the larger outer loop like any strap goes around a clip. The smaller inner loop is used to lock or unlock the clip from the camera post.

-) I use straps out of the camera store rummage box or having been mounted at some other camera to thread them into other clips, hooks etc.
-) I do not know whether you mounted your clips by purpose that way, but one clip is not arrested in the right place, making the stud rise above it.
If the studs really are of different height, that may be to allow the strap to pass some obstacle at the camera, as the photo suggests.
