Yes
Looking for a more comfortable neck strap over the Nikon one that comes in the box. Does anyone make a quick release type so you don't have to bother threading the strap everytime you want to remove/attach it?
 
Black Rapid (but they are quite expensive) or like the poster mentioned above - TP's own neck strap...

Then again how much do you want to spend :shrug:
 
I recently acquired Crumpler strap. Can't find the exact model but this one is a slimmer version.

Quickly adjustable, quick release clips, comfy.
 
[thread=336947]Clicky[/thread] to the TP branded OpTech strap for sale thread (if you're interested). :thumbs:
 
Black Rapid all the way!!

You'll forget how much it cost you once you've used it a couple of times. I carry a gripped D300 and 70-200 f2.8 on it and hardly notice it's there, it's that good!!

Just bought TP strap.
I did the test, I got my 50D and fitted the 100-400 lens to it, put it round my neck and it was ok.
I then fitted the new TP strap and wow what a difference, so much more comfortable, and for the money I would say very good value as well.

Once you've Black Rapided (or ebay equivalents), you don't go back to neck straps ;)
 
Thanks guys, some great suggestions. Black Rapid looks good but it is pricey, just not sure about the camera hanging to the side, id be worried about knocking it. The TP strap looks good value for money but I must admit I'm a huge fan of Crumpler, already have two camera bags of theres but never considered a strap.
 
+1 for the Crumpler Singapore Sling, had mine 2 weeks and love it, cheap too
 
There isnt a good neck strap. I use the camera slingers strap, and my neck and back dont hurt any more

Got my Black Rapid RS-7 from Crooked Imaging via Amazon for £44... You just need to shop around really.
