I was wondering if who ever makes the POTN straps with the wide neoprene padding (I have two) makes them without the quick release and just has the padding with a narror 3/8" strap with the little buckle kind of thing at the camera that you fold the strap through. Very low profile and out of the way. Ms.Jannie

The Upstrap is excellent for it's intended use which is to keep a camera from sliding off your shoulder. It wasn't designed to be a comfortable neck strap. As already mentioned look at the Op/Tech.

cicopo Goldmember  More info | Apr 12, 2010 17:48 | #7 I have both the POTN straps & the Industry Disgrace on my 1 series bodies (usually fitted with 100-400 L or 70-200 f2.8L and they are both very good. I do however worry about the quick connects, but keep seeing assurances from other members that they are reliable.

cicopo Goldmember More info | Apr 13, 2010 07:59 | #10 Agree that the POTN strap as shipped is too short so I ordered the longer extension set. The Crumpler is great as shipped. A skill is developed through constant practice with a passion to improve, not bought.
