So you know where I'm coming from, these are what I've used strap-wise: The OEM strap, a Matin Neoprene Strap, Crumpler Ultimate Disgrace, Kata Reflex C, BlackRapid, Gordy's Straps (neck) ....
The only one I would never use again is the OEM strap. It's just plain painful.
The Gordy neck strap, is also painful - but it looks gorgeous and is quite ok for very light cameras.
I now use the Gordy
Where I disagree with Ayaz's and Hyperdrives comments:
Gautam is right - the BR is meant to keep the camera just around the waist, not low down like a gunslingers holster so the support is actually a lot more comfortable. Infact, when I move quickly, I tend to push it a little further back to it's banging away behind me (behind and to the side). My BR screws onto my L-bracket, leaving me completely free to use a tripod. Yes, you do have to be a little mindful that you do put the screw-in connector tight and do tighten the carabiner (but then I need to ensure my lens locks in right, that the memory card is firmly inserted etc etc ... I can't see why doing that with the BR is an issue - it becomes second nature after a while). As far as metal wearing out and breaking goes - well, that can happen with any equipment and is a sign that even your camera doesn't want you touching it.
Where I agree with their comments:
A neoprene type of strap around the neck is very, very comfortable (for shorter periods of time - if you're trekking, it is NOT comfortable despite the 'give' in the neoprene taking a lot of the strain away as it just bounces all over the place. Of all the neoprene straps I've used, the plain Matin one that I bought for about 500-600 bucks was possibly the most comfortable (I sold it - to Bharat I think). It was comfortable and compact. The Crumpler is fantastic as it's got a huge broad strap, but is bulky. The Kata is somewhat of a compromise between the Matin and the Crumpler.
Ah OP!
Nope, I wouldn't go for that strap, simply as they have nothing to lose if their parts are made of low quality material and break. Either do the BR or get a neoprene strap.
