The neoprene strap through which your hand must pass is flexible enough to accommodate your larger hand. This is what I think. My hands are only a medium size, but a large should fit without difficulty. I believe you will be able to fit into it if you are an extra large size. If you plan to leave the camera unattended, there is a buckle system that allows you to keep the wrist strap on your wrist while the camera is detached, so you don't have to keep taking it off.
It's never happened to me before. It really works.
This wrist strap fits a Sony A6000 camera, but it was so large that resuming control of the camera required two hands. If you intend to use this strap solely for one-handed shooting, I believe it is better designed for a Canon or a Nikon. handed.

I bought this wrist strap because it appeared to be a better upgrade to my Op-Strap. system of information technology I've got a neck strap, a sling strap, and a thick wrist strap. Although the connections appeared to be identical, I was disappointed to discover that they were incompatible. I can't blame the vendor because he made no such claim, and I tried to check the Answers before buying it but couldn't find anything useful, so I bought it anyway. I ended up having to buy the Op-Ed that was less expensive (both in terms of quality and cost). In any case, there's a tech wrist strap. br>BTW, the distributor read my review and completely refunded the purchase price, which he did not have to do because I felt it was entirely my fault for not doing enough research. It's worth noting that this strap is far superior to the OP- Tech.
This is a well-made and comfortable strap. br>br>As an aside, the images for this - as well as any other strap manufacturer - Because I'm so right-handed, I found that having it on my right wrist made it difficult to change the battery and memory card, as well as detach and attach lenses. Without having to remove the strap from my wrist, I can hold the camera by the lens or cradled in my left hand, freeing up my right hand.
Because of a mishap at a wedding, I switched out my camera straps for these. While assisting a bride with her gown for a shot, I had an Elinchrom transmitter on my camera and set it down on the floor. I hadn't realized I'd stepped on the strap until I went to pick up the camera from the floor and dropped it. When the Elinchrom broke when it fell, I had to buy a new one. I made the decision right then and there that I needed to do something else in order to avoid making stupid decisions like that. I ordered one to try out and was blown away by how good it felt. It's made of neoprene and appears to be both light and durable. It had a battery grip and a 70-mm lens to hold my camera. I was able to use a 200mm lens without difficulty. I'm concerned about the quick connect clip, so I'll keep an eye on it as time passes. When I shoot, it's nice not to have the camera strap around my neck or in the way of the camera's buttons. I've since ordered a second one, so these wrist straps are now on both of my bodies. So far, everything seems to be going swimmingly. In hot weather, they make your wrist sweat a little, but they're pretty comfortable and have provided the drop protection I needed so far. White accents would have been preferable to the purple color, but that is purely a personal preference.
For our recent trip, we purchased this for our GX85 camera. It saved our brand new camera from flying across the room on its first day of use, so it's already paid for itself. But I'm not going to use it; instead, I'm going to rely on the shoulder strap. What I liked about it: br>br>
- I have a thin wrist but large hands, and I found that even if I had it snug on my wrist to keep it from slipping, I could still easily slide it on and off without having to adjust it each time. br>- Within a few hours of unboxing, the clip and strap saved my large camera from flying out of my hand and crashing to the ground.
- I was able to fit the ribbon string and our shoulder strap into our camera at the same time, and the GX85 doesn't have a large camera hook loop, so this should work for other cameras as well. br>br>What I didn't like about it and why I'm not going to use it: br>br>What I didn't like about it and why I'm not going to use it:
- Clipping and unclipping it from your wrist requires some force; I had a hard time doing it with one hand and was always afraid of dropping the camera while trying to work the clipbr>- Every time I unclipped it, half of the clip/band would forcefully shoot out and slam into the camera, usually damaging the lens or LCD screen. br>- There's a lot of hard plastic around the clip that scrapes against your camera body or screen when it's in your bag.
- When unclipped, a long string hangs from your wrist, which can be irritating.
- The string, at least on our GX85, kept getting in the way of the screen and had to be managed when shooting in portrait mode.
- If you want to give your camera to someone else for a quick photo, fiddle with the clip or take it off your wrist; either way, the other person will have a long string or grip on the camera, which is distracting. Before taking the photo, one person attempted to slip it over their hand and nearly dropped the camera. br>br>In the end, it did what it was supposed to do and saved our camera, so we won't be returning it, but you might want to consider a hand grip vs. If you have a large camera, you will need a wrist strap.
I've purchased far more straps than I'd like to admit. I have a mirrorless camera with a battery grip that I wanted to protect, but it couldn't be too bulky or in the way when I switched from landscape to portrait mode. This 100% is appropriate for the situation. It's long enough to put on the camera for landscape while still being able to turn the camera for portrait. The comfortable and adjustable arm band is made of stretchy material. I don't think that will be a problem because the clip is strong. The fact that it came with a small attachment cord for a point-and-shoot camera is an added bonus. That will be added to my P list. S for when we're riding our bikes and my wife has to take photos while we're on the move. In general. a fantastic product.
This was a fantastic item to bring on vacation with you. I really like how safe and secure I felt while walking around. Even when I was relaxed and hanging straight down, I never had to worry about it falling off my arm. br>br>Because removing the strap from my arm requires two hands for me, the quick release is extremely useful. I'd simply unsnap the quick release clip if I wanted to hand the camera to my wife and children. br>br>Due to the size and thickness of the neoprene, expect your arm to sweat, but not excessively.
