byron_delva Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 <p>+1 for the Up-Strap! Its is so confortable because you just relax your shoulder and the strap just hangs and stays put. I am a 6'3", and the supplied Nikon straps were just too short to carry on my shoulder.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bart Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 <p>anyone using the tamrac neoprene boomerang strap?

alvin_lim5 Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 <p>Phil, I would recommend the OpTech Pro Loop straps. Used it with my D2Hs, SB800 and 17-55mm f2.8 and it feels a lot lighter than with the original Nikon strap. I have tried using it during long walks and did not feel the weight of the equipment; in fact my shoulder bag felt heavier!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oskar_ojala Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 <p>One thing to note when hanging the camera unprotected overt the shoulder; it is much easier to bump it into something than when having it in front. Apparently it isn't totally unheard of lenses getting damaged this way. Just one thing to keep in mind when carrying a camera.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mt4x4 Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 <p>Phil, I would reccomend either the OP/TECH pro loop or super classic. I use a super classic, and even with my 80-200 2.8 AF-D (which is a heavy sucker) I don't even notice the weight. They are also nice because the quick disconnects allow you to easily remove the strap for putting in a bag or doing tripod work. Plus they have little nubbies to keep them in place incase you want to throw the strap on your shoulder.<br /> <br /> They are more comfortable than the UPSTRAP, which is just a chunk of rubber IMO.</p> <p>http://www.adorama.com/OTSCS38.html?searchinfo=classic%20strap&item_no=2</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
