I discovered the very fun and functional Miggo camera straps for DSLR and Mirrorless (SCS) cameras at a CE Week event in New York in the early summer. It’s a great way to comfortably carry your camera around your neck while keeping it protected at the same time. I had never seen a solution like this and loved their creativity.
When done shooting, you simply wrap miggo around your camera to protect it from scratches and damage inside your personal bag. In other words, it serves as a camera strap which then morphs into a compact and padded camera carrier.
The Miggo comes in 7 different colors or patterns. The below images give you an idea of its flexibility and diversity.
Its modular adaptor method makes it suitable for most camera and its multipurpose steel screw serves as a secure connector, and also allows you to connect to a tripod while miggo is attached. There’s also a hidden inner pocket for your lens cap, which is incredibly handy and it’s compatible with almost all of today’s Mirrorless (CSC) and DSLR cameras on the market, and a wide range of lenses. I’m told that they’re working on a Miggio for regular DSL cameras which I can’t wait to get my paws on. Bring it on!! Travel photographers will love this new innovation!
