Perfect for travel photography

The Cuff is especially useful during travel when you need quick access to your camera but want to keep it secure. It’s much more convenient than a traditional neck strap, especially when you’re moving around a lot or in crowded areas.

The wrist strap design means your camera is always ready to shoot, but you can quickly tuck it away when you need your hands free for other activities.

Works with the Peak Design ecosystem

There are lots of different sizes of PD’s camera straps, from the Slide, to the Slide Lite to the slimmer Leash. They all work with the Peak Design Anchor Link system.

Quick takeaways
