SuzyView Cream of the Crop  More info | May 30, 2012 07:04 | #2 The POTN Store above in the red strip on the menu bar has the OpTech neckstrap that has extenders. I buy extenders for all the cameras as I never know how long I need the strap. Just buy the regular strap in any color they have and order the extensions. The POTN straps are very comfortable and help our forum here. Suzie - Still Speaking Canonese!

Purchasers can choose the length of the strap when they order. It's intended for photojournalists. Dave

It's intended for photojournalists. http://www.wapitistraps.com/ Many people report that they like the Industry Disgrace strap by Crumpler (sp?) It does look interesting in stores. http://www.crumpler.com …Code=EN&SKU=IDE001-T01000 I have used a Black Rapid strap for a while. I don't like the modified 'biner they use to connect to the camera. I do find the strap comfortable. With hindsight, I wish I had bought a LumaLoop when they were available instead of the BR strap. I'm not about to spend more money, unless I sell the strap I have.... Other makes? Carry Speed, Luma Cinch, I'm sure there are more... +1 for the Crumpler ID Canon T2i | 18-55mm IS Kit | Tamron 17-50 f2.8 VC | Joby Gorillapod SLR-Zoommmmm! | Black Canon Edition Crumpler Industry Disgrace

SuzyView Cream of the Crop More info | May 30, 2012 21:13 | #15 The main reason I like the OpTech, POTN strap is the feel of strap with so much weight on my neck. I often carry both my 5D2 with 24-70 and my 7D with 70-200 2.8 IS II on me. The OpTech straps are very comfy even when it's hot and my neck is all sweaty. Suzie - Still Speaking Canonese!
