Many old cameras don\u2019t have a means of attaching a cameras strap, they being designed to sit in a case when out and about with strap attached to the case. It always worries me that when I\u2019m wandering around with some ancient pride and joy looking out for photo opportunities that I\u2019ll trip and the camera will fly.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

I found on eBay (other online retailers can supply too) that you can get a screw in strap lug (sounds a little kinky I know) that will screw into the 1\/4 inch tripod thingamygig for just a couple of sovs. Probably not new to you guys and gals, but I\u2019m so excited I had to let someone else know seeing my wife doesn\u2019t share my enthusiasm.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The camera is a 1956\/7 vintage Zeiss Contina in great working condition picked up for \u00a312 on flea bay. I found the rather fetching red string in the bottom of the \u2018stuff\u2019 drawer in the kitchen.<\/p>\n\n
