    The procedure for attaching the camera strap to your camera is explained below.
    REFERENCE
    • The strap (included with the EOS R) has been used for the purposes of explanation.
    • The location of strap attachments, method of attaching the strap and design of the strap may differ depending on the model you use.

    Strap mount eyelets are located on the upper left and right sides of the camera.



    Attach the left side of the strap to the camera’s left strap mount eyelet, and the right side to the camera’s right strap mount eyelet.

    Attaching the Strap
    Upon purchase, the ends of new straps are passed through the buckle and the strap keeper as shown in the image below.



    1. Loosen the strap and pass the end through the buckle and the strap keeper to straighten it as shown in the image below.
    Make sure to leave the strap keeper attached to the strap.



    2. Pass the end of the strap through the camera’s strap mount eyelet to attach it to the camera.
    Make sure to pass the strap through the strap mount eyelet from the bottom as shown below.


    REFERENCE
    • The front of the strap clearly displays the Canon logo.

    3. Fold the strap over, and pass it through the strap keeper.



    4. Next, pass the strap through the inside of the buckle.



    5. Pull the strap to take up any slack and make sure the strap will not loosen from the buckle.

    6. Repeat the process with the other end of the strap on the opposite side. Make sure the strap is not twisted before attaching it to the camera.
