Question: Is the wrist strap better or worse than a hand strap?
Document: This wrist strap works well enough and looks better than I expected. It is foam rubber though, so it has an elasticity to it, kind of unnerving when your hand does slip and the camera starts to drop, there is a bit of stretching before the strap actually stops the camera from falling from your hand. Also, it is a bit difficult to attach, the strap is a bit thick for squeezing through the camera's strap eyelet.
This strap is just perfect for me. Large enough to slide over my big hand easily, but fits snugly enough on my small wrist to feel secure. The neoprene-like material is comfortable in warm & cold conditions and is nice and cushy such that it doesn't dig into my skin, like a neck strap would. For me, this is such a better alternative to a conventional neck strap that is always getting in the way. So happy I found this! !
I own a Canon T2i and a Canon XSi (2 DSLR Rebels). I was using a hand strap on both because of personal preference over the shoulder strap. But recently I discovered wrist straps and got one. I liked it a lot, so I decided to get one for my other camera. I couldn't find the same brand so I purchased this one. It's even better than the first! Really! Its design is simpler and yet more comfortable.
Anyways, for 8 bucks give it a try. You'll love it.Once you go strap, you don't go back.P.S. I actually put my hand through the strap opposite than the picture for better comfort and control.
The other bad part about the snap is someone could easily undo it and steal your camera right out of your hand. I put some tape over the snap to make this more difficult and I feel better about it now.I love using this thing, the long neck straps kind of drive me crazy because they are all over the place and I put my cameras in little bags all the time. This strap is nice and short and fits in the bags and pockets well.
could nicely fit to my NEX-5. did not find a weak point, looks nice, very easy to use, much better than the neck one that came with the camera. looks pro and feels more safe with the camera in my hand.
Really comfortable and way better than any neck strap I've used. Also, the part that goes around your wrist has a bit of elastic in it so it is flexible. Looks great on your wrist too!
The only small annoyance, is that the plastic ring that you slide to tighten the strap around your wrist sort of compresses and digs into the neoprene, so the neoprene will start to wear at this point after several uses, but I guess you don't want it being loose, so it's better than the alternative.
Now that I have this wrist-strap I absolutely do bother putting it on, even for a few seconds, and it already saved my camera once.Only thing that could be better: it is just a little too short for comfort when shooting in portrait orientation with a battery grip or a pro body. Half an inch longer would have been perfect.
This strap is not as easy to put on and take off the wrist as I would like. It is nice with the detachable latch, though, so it is easy to interchange with a compatible neck strap. Also, I don't really like the way it feels on my wrist. I've only used it a few times; maybe I will come to like it better with more use.
Answer: I am not sure what your definition of a hand strap is, but I found this wrist strap very comfortable.  I was able to move the camera any direction I wanted to.  When not in use it was very comfortable to know the camera was safely on my wrist and couldn't be stolen and it was convenient.  I used a wrist sweatband because I found the sweating under the strap was ugly.
