3 Legged Thing Axis 24 Padded Neck and Shoulder Strap Inferno
3 Legged Thing Axis 24 Padded Neck and Shoulder Strap Inferno Summary
The 3 Legged Thing Axis 24 Padded Neck and Shoulder Strap Inferno combines a relatively slim 24mm profile with additional carrying comfort for photographers using mirrorless cameras and lightweight interchangeable lens setups. The integrated padded section helps distribute weight more evenly across the shoulder and neck, making it better suited to longer walks, travel photography and day-long shooting than the standard non-padded version.
The strap uses 3 Legged Thing’s world’s first 4-Axis QD buckle system, which combines quick push-button release operation with a stable connection during active use. Included with the strap is the QD4 Arca-Swiss compatible quick release plate with an integrated QD socket, allowing faster transitions between handheld shooting, tripods and support systems without changing mounting hardware. Smooth webbing improves comfort and flexibility during movement, while the adjustable 101cm to 163cm length accommodates different carry positions and user heights. The Inferno finish provides a brighter, more visible colour option within the padded Axis range.
