Is This Industrial-Grade Camera Clip Better Than the Standard Neckstrap?

What an amazing product! Is there anything else like it on the market?

Take Care,

Looks nice and something I would get but not wear on my belt. Just doesn't seem like it would hold up to walking and movement of it.

I have a 28-135 mm, and although a great lens, it has terrible zoom-creep. I wonder what I could do about that... Otherwise i thing the product is genius, i hate the next strap!

I already look like a loser without having a camera cemented to my waist. Reminiscent of the Borg.

Add a couple Think Tank pouches and a pair of cool guy shades to that and your Delta

Anything is better than the the neck strap that Canon "gives" us.

It looks as though the camera can be strapped facing any direction you feel like, including upwards, thus eliminating the lens creep issue.

Some are afraid this may break and create an issue. Camera straps could also break.
I love the idea of the camera not swaying as I move. I have not used any of my camera straps since the first day I had one. I hate the way the camera moves while I am hiking or walking in the city.
As I see it, the holder can be used where the clip is facing so the opening is not facing downward... a smart feature.

I don't like wearing belts. However, if I did, I would want one that doesn't require me to remove my L-bracket. Why not just come up with a belt clip for the RRS quick release?

Solutions are easier or more difficult depending on where you plan to be and the range of pictures you will be taking. For me, I do mostly scenics / nature so a vest is the handiest solution. Whatever I think I'll be using most goes in the front vest pockets, and the rest in the backpack. I hate the thought of dropping my camera, so I have the camera strap around my neck, but have a strap/loop on the front of the vest to hang the camera on. This results in the weight of the camera being supported by my shoulders through the vest, not on my neck, and keeps it from swaying while walking/climbing. The strap on the vest is strong enough to support the camera even with my 400mm lens when birds are distracting me from scenics.

And, yes... I know that vests are a little geeky looking.
