I have a small inventory of Crumpler camera neck straps and bags that were given to me as gifts over the years and the latest addition to my growing collection is a black Canon CPS neck strap courtesy of Canon Singapore and my favourite Brunei Canon distributor. Had a great time catching up over my Italian cuisine at Fratini Restaurant in Seria. They say a way to a man’s heart is through his stomach — they are not wrong!

While we’re on the subject of neck straps, I want to give this highly elusive and super wide Canon strap a mention. I don’t know if it’s a limited production item but judging from the number of enquiries I have received about this particular item over the years, I take it that its availability and source still remain a mystery. Like the Crumpler Canon CPS strap, this gorgeous red strap is also a gift which I greatly appreciate and treasure.
That’s nice, how come I don’t have one? How did you get it?

Well, it’s not sold in Brunei that’s for sure (referring to the CPS strap). But if you’re looking for the red piece, you may check with Canon showroom at VivoCity, Singapore. They seem to stock Canon goodies there—EOS magazines, Dri-Fit tee shirts, Anniversary camera and lens lens miniatures etc.

I believe CPS membership is expected of you, at least. As to where and how you can get one, I have no idea. I got mine as a thank you from Canon for my support of Canon and their Brunei distributor over the years. You can try contacting Canon for more info. Sorry I can’t be of much help. You may want to read this Facebook thread for more info.
