Good point. That's the problem with all that gear weighing me down. I gain about a foot when I take that lot off.

I just got mine and put it on the camera and thought "really? that's kind of dumb". Who exactly is that buckle for? The wearer can't use it! Seems like an obvious cost reduction. coldcuts113 wrote in post #11940127 Won't go back to a regular strap... BR straps work great for me. Agree, what a world of difference!

Mar 10, 2011 20:44 | #40 Just got my sport strap today...so far I really like it...is it better than the RS7? Well I don't know for sure because my camera is with Canon right now! Can't wait to fully test it when it comes back. Initial impression is that it is smaller than I expected, quite comfortable and the brad strap seems to work well if needed. Please visit my Flickr

Mar 10, 2011 21:48 | #42 The contour of the sport is even more pronounced and so seems to sit on my shoulder more and stays farther from my neck. The padding also seems to further spread out the weight over my shoulder. Again, these are preminary observations without being able to mount my camera(I just pulled on the strap to simulate weight.

petriej Member 83 posts Joined Sep 2009 Location: Denver, CO More info | Mar 17, 2011 01:02 | #43 I have the Sport as well and really dig it. It worked extremely well under my jacket at the recent St Paddy's Day Parade. The camera was easily accessible when needed, and out of sight and safe when at my side. I did have one incident when I leaned over to play with my son and it bonked him, but other than the user error it's great.

ceriltheblade THREAD STARTER Goldmember 2,484 posts Likes: 4 Joined Mar 2007 Location: middle east More info | Mar 17, 2011 01:11 | #44 i looked at these straps and even tried one on. It is really nice. The logistics though (at this point in my life) of being forced to only use one shoulder to hold the camera is just unrealistic for me. Later on, I will get it...or something similar...thanks all for your wonderful input! 7D/5dIII
