About Sharpshooter Kameraband

Sharpshooter is 'n kameraband gemaak vir fotograwe wat enkellensrefleks-kameras gebruik. Die boonste skouergedeelte bevat drukverligtende skuim, aan die buitekant bedek met Italiaanse kalfleer en aan die binnekant gevoer met suede-stof. Die bandlengte is verstelbaar, wat makliker hantering van die kamera moontlik maak. 'n Koper-veiligheidsslot voeg tekstuur by en beveilig die kamera verder. Gelooide beesvel en Italiaanse kalfleer word gebruik, en elke band word met die hand gemaak deur bekwame ambagsmanne in Taiwan. Die band is duursaam en kan by alle kameramerke aangepas word.
