alright, this is going to be weird so bare with me :)

i am looking for a new strap for my 500 F4. i already used the original Canon strap as well as the POTN one but i found them both to be too short. i like to carry the 500 with the strap around my neck and under my shoulder while still be able to lift it to my eye. so... if you know of any long strap options out there, please let me know.

You could cut up one of them to extend the straps on the other... or just go to the craft store and buy some strap to extend one of them.

Check out B&H, but I think Tamrac makes straps that are pretty long. I know I ordered one and had to send it back as it was too long. Then I noticed they came in different sizes.
