Re: Source for strong split rings?

I've been using these adapters for a good many years now, then using a small snap clip on the strap:

lately I've gone to small S-biners on some of my straps -- be sure to get the steel biners with lock. Note that these are too large to use directly on the camera.

Works for me, but use at your own risk. I've had no problems with either product but my cameras and lenses are relative light m4/3 gear.
