I have one on my 5DMkII and it should be noted that the strap attachment will scratch the paint on the camera because of its design.

It does indeed, I’ve found shrink tube over the scratchy tightening part works wonders though.

I don’t use mine any more however, because I have more need for a quick release plate on the bottom of my camera.

Also, there is a very tiny pocket on the strap which is too small for two batteries but a little too big for one NB-2LH.

Here’s the neckstrap: http://optechusa.com/straps/utility-strap.html

They have updated the mount since the one shown in the pictures. The new one is much better.

A neck strap will suffice for the lower priced ‘compact body DSLRs’. But trying to use a neck strap with a larger lens and a metal body camera is a recipe for back ache.

The best solution I’ve found is to combine either the Split Strap or my current favorite, the OP TECH Super Classic Strap-ProLoop with the Camera Strap Buddy from PhotoJojo. It’s fabulous because it provides for two mounting points which significantly increases the ability of the strap, the camera rest position against your body, and your shutter hand to keep the camera movement under control.

Second, it allows you to make one mounting point the strap loop and the other the tripod mount. This is absolutely wonderful because it allows the camera to hang at a more comfortable angle and the tripod mount keeps the left side strap from crossing my face and getting hung up. It’s absolutely wonderful!

I’ve looked a long time for the right side-carry, fast deploy shoulder strap and had considered building one, but the guys PhotoJojo saved me the trouble.

• First I bought the tripod mount nub ($14).
• Then I found an old bag that had a shoulder strap I never use (free).
• Next, I bought a couple of yards of 1.5″ nylon webbing from the fabric store ($5)

• I extracted the metal clip and adjustment bar from the strap. Sized up the nylon webbing to provide a good fit + about 1′ extra for adjustment, pinned it and cut off the excess. Then I put it together the adjustment bar and metal clip, melted the edges of the cut nylon, folded it over 2x to give me a triple thickness by 2″ pad, and sewed the whole thing at both ends.

Total cost $21, with the caveat that I had some of the stuff laying around. It fits me perfectly, didn’t cost half of what the R-strap costs, I can make a new one if it gets ruined or if I want to modify it, and best of all, I get the satisfaction of knowing that I made it.

Does this mean I can use it with my Mamiya C220? Cuz that sucker is heavy.

My only gripe is that it doesn’t accommodate something like a pouch for a second lens, or even pockets for lens caps, filters, etc. But for your standard SLR outing, it can’t be beat.
