| Heavy-duty Shoulder Strap Buckle (the Y515 which is provided with long lens cases) | |||||

1. This snap hook is the strongest non-metal buckle I could find. In my own tests, it supports full body weight (180+ pounds) without failure. |
||||
 |
2. Press the lever open using your fingers and pressing the buckle against the palm of your hand. Insert the buckle into the flat portion of the D-Ring (you may need to rotate the D-ring around). It will attach to the round side of D-rings but may not have the same strength or may prematurely wear out the snap hook. |
