Beginner How to mount peak design strap to manfrotto base plate and still use tripod..

Hi

Now I’ve a long heavy lens, the general consensus is to attach the strap to the base plate, how do I do that and still use my manfrotto tripod and monopod..

Any advice welcome..

Regards

Peak Design do plates that fit Manfrotto, and can have anchor attached.

like this?

Dual Plate

Dual Plate lets you remove your Camera from Capture (sold separately) and stick it directly into most Manfrotto RC2 tripod heads. Dual Plate earns its name because it also works in most Arca-type tripod heads. Fits in Capture in 2 directions and contains 2 loops for Peak Design Anchors. Durable...

Just be careful and make sure the plate is fitted correctly. I have one of these and find that the toggles can get in the way when securing the camera/lens. A little jiggling about works, but be aware if you are rushing, I have had the camera come off before, thankfully with it in my hand.
