Are Peak anchors actually safe?
I see people rave about Peak Design stuff everywhere and they do have some nice looking stuff, but are those tiny strings on the anchors really safe?
They say they can hold up to 90kg each and I've seen a dude use one to suspend himself. Tons of people use them every day and they're apparently great. I just can't help get the feeling that it's weird the camera is only hanging from those really really thin strings.
I'm on a waiting list for a Fuji X100vi and I've been looking around for what strap I'd like to get for it. A Peak leash looks very practical given the small size of the Fuji, but even then I'm still worried about what's actually holding on to the camera are those tiny strings.
The only other camera I've had is a 5dmkii that I've used for years and years and it's always felt heavy and clunky around my neck. It always tilted forward too and felt very unsafe to just let it hang.
I'm looking to have the Fuji as a camera I can just put around my neck and walk around with no thought of it.
Anybody here have any experience with those Peak Design anchors?
