Camera strap

i have the pro non loop and really like it. imo the width of the neck strap is a plus as i think it probably distributes the weight better and it very flexible so shoving it into a corner of the bag has never been a problem
 
Just another consideration - I have a Kata Reflex-E camera strap that I love - the neck material is wonderfully comfortable, width is just right, has pouches for extra battery or memory cards, and disconnect clips.

Nothing wrong with the Op/Techs...they seem quite popular on this board. Just thought I'd throw out another one to check out for anyone looking.
 
Trying to decide on a new strap for my Nikon D40 and have narrowed it down to the OP/Tech Classic Strap and OP/Tech Pro Strap. I am leaning towards the Classic strap for its somewhat smaller size. I have read many good things about the pro strap, but wonder if the extra width of the strap can be a somewhat burden when trying to store it in a camera bag or just in general when wearing it. I am not making the pro loops on the Pro strap a deciding factor in my choice. I haven’t read much on the classic strap in the way of reviews and would love to hear some opinions!
The wide strap does take up more room in the bag but it's generally not a problem... just jam it in there wherever there's a free bit of room. :)

I don't think that the Classic strap has the same weight-absorption features so you won't be getting all the benefits of the Pro strap.
 
I also have the Pro strap and cramming it in the bag is no problem because it is very, very soft and flexible... much more than my old Canon pro strap.
 

I love my r-strap. I went with the rs1, because I've heard that the rs2 (the one with the pouch) is too bulky.
 
Very interesting... I'm a big Op/Tech fan but even with that, my neck can get pretty sore at the end of the day, and I'm often switching to putting the strap bandolier-style, which is more comfortable but more difficult to shoot with.

Just what we all need, another thing to spend money on! Ack!
 
Does anyone know where i can order a Mickey camera strap... besides getting one on Ebay?
 
Looks like a great strap and has quite a few good reviews. Hopefully they will be at PDN next week so I can see it in person before purchasing.
 
Or you can just call WDW Mail Order and not have to pay the markups of the middleman.

407.363.6200 or wdw.mail.order@disneyworld.com

Just describe what you are looking for and they'll find it.
 
I bought one two years ago used it only one day and put back my cheap Olympus brand camera strap (the one that came with the camera) back on the next day. It was IMO the most uncomfortable strap I ever purchased. It was also too short and I'm only 5ft. 9in tall.
 
For that amount of money only get it because you have to have Mickey! I concur about the strap being very uncomfortable.
 
The Y Strap looks very intriguing also. I might give that one a shot - I prefer something that connects to the lug on the side of the camera, not the tripod socket. Of course, you could build your own for virtually nothing, but $30 shipped isn't too painful. :) I may want to add some padding to where it goes over the shoulder, though.
