custom camera straps

[11222111]

anyone know where I can get a Police Line/Crime Scene Do Not Cross/Enter style camera strap.

Im looking for a proper strap not a guitar strap mod or one of those straps with the quick release.

I really like the style of the common strap bundled with your DSLR but would like the crime scene stylings (I'm a Crime Scene Examiner you see and would like to have it on my work camera - aye aye sad I know.)

I had a good look over t'internets but came up with nowt (I even emailed Ducti.co.uk to see if they fancy adding such a product to their catalogue lol)

Cheers

I can't really help with your request, sorry. Out of interest though, how did you get into that line of work? I've always found those kind of jobs pretty interesting.

^^

These days with so little jobs and so much interest (thansk to CSI glamming the job up) most applicants are drafted in as graduates from forensic/Crime Scene specific degrees.

When I joined you could get in on some standard grades and highers as long as you had the character and integrity required but like I say demand is high supply is not so easier to take a semi trained person than a untrained person.

I have degree in Forensics and Criminolgy if interested.

Its not like CSI either - very slow and methodical my job and to be honest quite boring dealing with low level crime mostly as major incidents are uncommon unless your working for the Met/GMP(manchester) or Glasgow.

Set up of a Scene Examination versus CSI talk I did at Kirkcaldy Museum - note the black suit and white paper suit beyond on the extreme right of the photo. Used that as a means to describe what a CSI would wear at a major incident (MI) - an Armani Suit and what I would wear - a disposable self sealing paper suit (with hood mask glvoes and overshoes).
