I really like it. I bought it for my 5DII and I like it so much I am going to pick up another for my 1DIII. It has everything I have been looking for in a strap. Good QR system, strong, comfortable and good length adjustment.

I'm also a big fan of this strap. The rubber undersurface of the shoulder pad holds it in place while the strap slides through as I lift the camera from hip to eye level. Can't beat it for security. I use one on each of my cameras as well.

I love my CarrySafe 100 as well. The D rings are great for easy release and the feeling of security is just a plus! I just wish they made the strap slightly wider where the shoulder/neck would be. It is a tad bit too narrow for complete comfort.

With that said, I'm actually considering purchasing the CS 200 to replace the default LowePro strap on my camera bag.

I'm happy with mine as well. I wear it sling style (like the R-Strap), and it's really comfortable. It has a couple of added bonuses over the R-Strap. One is that my camera isn't twisting, it's always in the same orientation. Another is that I don't have to remove it to mount the camera to a tripod.

Definitely a great $20 spent.

Oh, if anyone has the older model, you should contact them. I was told they'd replace mine if I received the older model. (the newer model has a buckle with eyelets).

I have several pacsafe straps now for my camera bodies--- LOVE them! I have tried lots of straps and figured I would give it a try-- can't be the price. Excellent strap!

now with all this talk about new styles and old styles, I wonder if these resellers still have some of the old stock
