User Ratings and Reviews

2 Stars Not on my Nikon
I wish I had read the critical reviews more closely before ordering this strap. I had hoped to provide some security for my Nikon D40 without the neck strap which I dislike. Trouble is that if I cinch it tight enough for security, I can hardly get my finger on the shutter release.

4 Stars Opteka wrist strap
This is an excellent buy. Be sure to look at the customer photos for a better attachment method that allows more physical flexibility while maintaining the security of the strap. I’m female and, while I have fairly large hands, I did find that having the side of the pad with the most curvature toward my wrist gave me a more secure and comfortable fit.

4 Stars Too large
I bought this item because my hands are very small, so small I find carrying my DSLR difficult for long periods of time. This item was made for large (maybe bigger male) hands and didn’t even adjust small enough to skim my fingers. Obviously, didn’t do what I needed it to do, no support. Not a defect or negative for the average user, but the company could have made adjustments for slim, female hands.

Just keep it in mind if this applies to you.

5 Stars Great Strap
This makes a marked difference in comfort holding a camera for a long time. I use this on a T2i with battery grip, or without the grip, and it’s VERY comfortable. For the price you can’t go wrong.

5 Stars Perfect strap
Excellent purchase. Strap gives me security for my DSLR. It fastens through the neckstrap swivel on the top of the camera and the tripod mount on the bottom. The tripod screw that fastens has a male for attaching to the camera and a female that accepts the tripod without undoing. Comfortable when holding.

Olympus M 2 GB xD Picture Card Flash Memory Card 202249


41H2sKG4kjL. SL75  Olympus M  2 GB xD Picture Card Flash Memory Card 202249

Compact and durable, the Olympus Type-M+ xD-Picture Card is the ultimate removable storage media for digital photos. Besides offering compatibility with virtually all digital cameras with xD-Picture card slots and almost all other xD-compatible devices, it is the only xD-Picture card that supports the exclusive Olympus panorama, 3D and art modes.

5 Stars Works perfectly
These cards used to be super expensive. Now they’re cheap but they max out at 2 gigs. Still they work great with my Olympus and store a large number of photos without issue.

1 Star Officially Obsolete
I saw that people are still buying SD cards probably out of a mistaken idea that they are necessary for Olympus cameras. According to Wikipedia, as of 2010 the xD card format is obsolete. It was a rather unscrupulous tactic by Olympus to force users of their cameras to buy their cards. Well, the card is slow compared to CompactFlash and SD, and they could never get it to go over 2gb anyway. Olympus quickly realized their mistake and began including SD format and CF in their cameras since it was going to destroy camera sales. The xD offers no advantages, even the “panorama function” is minimal since it only allows 5 shots in a pano using their card. This format is best avoided, but if you feel the need to waste your money, this particular one is good.

5 Stars Greatful to own.
What’s there to say? I thought the price was a little high however it’s easy to use.. extremely convenient and a must have for all your peeksures!

5 Stars Olympus Flash Memory Card
My cameras stock card only took 8 pictures in the HD mode, now I get 500+ in the HD mode. Excellent buy over the retail store price.

5 Stars Olympus camera picture card
After looking up prices online and in stores for this memory card, I decided on this one because the price of this picture card was comparable to what I found plus the shipping was included, so it was less than if I’d gone to a store locally to buy it. Which also saved me time and gas. And then it arrived before it was scheduled to, which was a nice surprise.

5 Stars Works Great!
I bought these batteries for my and my mom’s Olympus cameras. It’s an extra battery to have on had for both of us. Works great. Holds charge well. Very helpful on our vacation to swap out the battery when one dies.

5 Stars No complaints
This was the first replacement and we have had no issues with it. It is possible that it doesn’t last as long as the original (as some reviews have suggested), but I can’t be sure. It lasted long enough for us.

5 Stars Works perfect!
I bought this for my Olympus Stylus camera and it works great! the price for this battery was a great deal! When my battery dies out, Im gonna purchase from seller again!!

4 Stars I received imitation Olympus LI-42B
I bought LI-42B from Digi Acc, $15 + free shipping,

shipping was very quick, I’ve received it in 4 days from order date.

Actually, it is shipped from Brooklyn, NY. I guess that’s why so quick.

I’m sure I received fake product.

The Digi Acc description says “Brand New Original Battery in Olympus Packaging!!! Ships Fast From NY!!”

Yes, it is brand new, and looks original battery in Olypus package.

However, my first impression was different.

Package was well made, but I felt that it could be imitation product.

Second, when I opened product and compare with my previous LI-42B which came with camera.

The front sticker was almost same, but the back of it wasn’t.

There are some Chinese words, and I found BIG MISTAKE!!

My previous battery said “OLYMPUS IMAGING CORP”,,

and fake one says…”OLYMPUS IMAOING CORP”..

what language is “IMAOING” ???????????

I thought I ordered real one. I want to say don’t get deceived.

I felt bad, it is right to know that buyers should know what they are buying.

However, the product works same as real battery,

just.. I doubt that how many times I can charge and use it.

In my conclusion, the price was cheap, and I got what I paid for..

5 Stars Does the job
I purchased this battery as a replacement for an old one which I had for a couple of years. Hugh difference right away.
