I've given up searching for a handstrap for the C-3030.

Does anyone know of a site where they are sold, or have a creative way to make one, or know of a place to buy something as useful as the synthetic (nylon) handstrap that comes as part of the leather covering for cell phones. Yup, you guessed it ... you gotta' buy the entire leather case in its blister pack to get the nylon.

Thank you,

Paul
 
Just take a black nylon shoelace, knot it, cut off the extra and fuse the end with a match or lighter or soldering iron. There must be tons to choose from; flat, round, thin, thick and dirt cheap too.

Pikachu,

Good idea. I had thought about using an ordinary black cotton shoelace and tying it tightly, etc. but I hesitated because the strap on my cell phone v=case is perfect and I had been trying to buy the part from Nokia. No such luck. I like your idea about using nylon instead of cotton and I think I'll try it ...

Go to your local thrift store and check out their cameras. You can get a strap for a buck or two and the camera you can throw donate back to them.

Very good idea.

This way, I can find a real camera strap. I'll buy the whole camera, give it back to them as a donation for one buck less, my arbitrary valuation of a used hand strap.

Until then I'll use shoelaces ....
