With a BosTail, you can permanently free up your
tripod attachment socket and possibly avoid serious
damage to your camera. BosTails can be used with
any sling style camera strap. BosTails include a slip lock and a nickel plated, metal
ring which is permanently attached to the BosTail.
BosTails can be adjusted from 2" to 4" to accommodate
different camera body heights and carrying
configurations.
A BosTail attaches to the left
side eyelet or left strap lug depending on the
camera body. On cameras that have eyelets
with triangular split rings, attach the BosTail to
the left side split ring. If your camera comes
equipped with a lug for its strap, simply remove
the camera strap and install the BosTail on the
left side lug. A BosTail never needs to be
removed from the camera body. Each camera
body should have its own BosTail.
