I need a simple low cost strap for my XSi. Is the strap below a good choice for $15? I probably won't be using heavy telephotos too often. Mostly 18-55 and 50 prime.

Its a good strap. If you find yourself using a tripod a lot, you might want to get the one that detaches and leaves just a couple of short stubs attached to the camera. I find a full strap gets in my way when I'm using a tripod and a cable release.

Here's a little better one for just a few buck more:
