My Olympus TG830 weighs 215 grams. Does anyone know if this float will work with the weight?

I can only tell you that my Nikon Coolpix AW110 camera weighs 193g, and this wrist strap float works with it. We tested it in our really deep kitchen sink.

I've used it with a zoom lens that weighs about 4.5 pounds. I really like it.

It should float but the float may be just to hold to camera only and not with the pole but if your using the pole under water then you dont need the float

It should... my D3100 + a 55-200mm lens weighs about 1100 grams. The description says it holds up to 3 kilos. It all depends on how you adjust the legs and the angle of the camera. I've used mine clamped to the railing of a cruise ship. I took great care in wrapping the legs and balancing the camera before letting go completely to use the remote release.

Yes it will. The kit comes with two straps, each of the straps will support 7oz. per strap. So technically speaking using both straps attached to your camera you could float the camera plus and additional 6.30 oz.

Our two floats have been used by adults weighing +/- 120lbs up to 180 +/- lbs...all sit comfortably IN the water (not too high) although the heavier you are the deeper you sit. I would think a 210pounder would still be satisfied , ie. IN the water not under the water). Hope this helps. We've been very satisfied....great for sitting in the water with a group of friends and talking etc...

There is a considerable counter weight. With that said, I'm not sure how much your camera weighs. The other problem to consider is that this is a manual adjust telescope. If you are viewing Saturn, for example, you will need to constantly adjust to keep up with the rotation.

I don't know the total weight limit, but I use an Olympus em10 with a full fourThirds 70-300mm lens and adapter. That's about 4lbs.

It should work fine. I have approx 50psi on my supply line and the float closes it no problem.

You need to check the weight of your camera. A single strap held just fine my Panasonic DMC-TS5, which weighs only 8oz. Considering you will get 2 straps (if you buy the same set), it should easily hold up to 1lb of weight. If your camera is heavier than 1lb, then I suggest you ask manufacturer

I haven't attempted anything near that weight. It did do well with a DSLR and Tamron 150-600 lens, but that is no where near 33 lbs.

It is advertised for video cameras up to 6lbs.I looked up your camera and it weighs 6.4lbs.I'm not saying it will,but I don't see where 7oz should make much difference.

I tested the floating strap in fresh water (a bucket) with an Olympus Stylus Tough 8000 camera. It floated just fine. At least one of the reviews said it floated in a swimming pool. The flotation is not super strong, so I imagine a strong current (like you would find in white water) could pull it under for some period of time. Not sure how it performs with other cameras, but it worked great when I took it to the Virgin Islands recently.

Hey. It's about 5 pounds really light. There are 4 - 1/4 mounting holes underneath so you can mount it to a try pod. But keep in mind that if you have a heavy camera/lens it might wiggle. I would suggest 2 try pods (one on each end or some other rig (latter or what not). Besides that it's a great slider. I am a video professional with high profile clients and this thing gets the job done!

NO!!! it will NOT support a mid or heavy camera, not anything over 1lb. The problem lies in the leg's locking mechanism that will break, it's a common defect, I had a few of these and they all broke (and the cameras were never over 2lbs).

I am not sure if it floats, but it is threaded for standard camera mounts, and this Olympus Float Strap is pretty solid http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0014E02AO/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

amazingly I have this thing a 4 foot indy jib with 16 pound weights and a camera rail system on a ephoto pro tripod. about 27 or so pounds on it and it works smoothly. glides on the wheels with no problem.
