My D7200 And D300 both have solid post making it hard for the peak design straps as the cords to the camera get very twisted ,looking for some kind of swivel post to attach in between camera and strap ? Thanks steve

Real hardware stores are fewer and farther between than camera stores 😈

Or a tackle shop. The swivels themselves look like what I have in my tackle box.

Many of the recommendations that have been made here will actually end up scratching the living daylights out of your body.
Get a Black Rapid strap and forget attaching potential trouble to your camera lugs.

The term "weakest link" comes to mind. Be very careful what you buy. I've seen posts here about connecting parts failing.
