Camera carry, next level.
The all-new SPINN SWIFT-LOCK is a universal camera carrying system for any DSLR or mirrorless camera. It redefines the way cameras are carried and handled.

Simply mount the quick release plate and connect your camera strap in seconds. The magnetic closure allows you to make ultra-fast changes. Up onto the tripod, battery replacement, switch to another body… It´s all just a magnetic “snap” away!

What is it all about?

Hi photographers!
There are countless so-called “camera carrying solutions” out there. Holsters, harnesses, slings. No doubt you can look cool with them. Unfortunately, hardly none of them truly provide universal comfort, improved camera handling and broad compatibility all in one. We do!

SWIFT-LOCK takes your strap from the top and puts it at the bottom of your camera. Simple physics with striking results – Your camera now connects perfectly to your body – perfectly stabilized by the large contact area and the wide spacing of the strap eyelets.

Extremely comfortable: Your camera rests firmly with its entire surface against your body.

Finally, you can enjoy unrestricted accessibility and a perfect visibility to all the controls without getting tangled up with the strap. Your “cockpit” has never been this clean.

Reaching for your camera is now more intuitive and faster than ever. When you´re done, slide the camera around to your back, and you´re free to do anything you want without the camera bothering you or hitting anything – even climbing or biking is easy with SWIFT-LOCK.

Do everything as usual, but expect to feel much better!

Diversity makes life better! We’ve made the latest generation of our carrying system compatible with the major standards. In addition to the established Arca® standard found on most tripods, SWIFT-LOCK works with Peak Design® products seamlessly.

Use all your favorite tools – across all manufacturers.

Maybe the world’s best camera strap?

Looking for an adjustable camera strap that doesn’t sacrifice comfort and is probably the lightest on the market? With the most compact pack size? This pro camera strap has everything you need: perfect adjustability, high strength (90 kg), and a comfortable feel. With minimal bulk and weight.

Smooth and easy to adjust. This strap slides smoothly over clothing, and the absence of metal hardware protects your valuable gear. Two low-profile quick-adjusters made of carbon fiber-reinforced polyamide allow for easy reconfiguration. The SPINN camera strap is entirely made in Germany from recycled materials!

No metal hardware, nothing to scratch your gear!

About us

We are a team of product designers with long experience in photography and film production. Under the SPINN brand we develop camera equipment for professional photographers and photo enthusiasts with added value – as a concept for outstanding usability and features that go beyond the common. We’ve been part of Kickstarter for many years and it’s fantastic to see how new things are brought to life there – off the beaten track of industrial value chains. Over the last few years we have built up several brands, won international industry awards and ran over 20 successful campaigns (on Kickstarter) with a community of over 50,000 backers now.

With the release here on INDIEGOGO, we would also like to inspire you, the Indiegogo-backers, with our work.

Kai Wiehagen, head of R&D SPINN.DESIGN

Together with our backers, we have gained a lot of experience and know exactly what is essential. With this current generation of our camera carrying system, we can rely on this proven idea and we are ready to make it a reality for you!

We manufacture your SWIFT-LOCK plate from machined high-strength aluminum!

All items shown above are from a pre-production run on the original machines of the final production – with the exact characteristics of the parts we will deliver to you. We need your support to fund this new product generation with all the costs of initial manufacturing and tooling. And of course the shipping of your pledges.
