Optech do a shoulder sling that utilises the pad from the neckstrap the poster above mentioned http://www.jacobsdigital.co.uk/p-49759-jacobs-digital-optech-utility-strap-sling.aspx?sku=1696785&
Bought one myself from an Ebay business seller in Israel for 17 quid new, first impressions are very good and has two securing points if required
I will be replacing my optech with a RS-7 when I can find the ~£50 for it.
Chris ... Is this the strap you are after? http://www.warehouseexpress.com/buy-black-rapid-rs-7-camera-strap-with-fastenr-2/p1520232
I've just picked up a Black Rapid RS-7 from Jessops with new R3 fastener for £49.99, going to try it out tonight
We've used the Optech Pro camera straps for years and would thoroughly recommend them. They seem to retail at around the sub £20 bracket.

It was comfy, I used my 40D with a 580EX II attached and a Sigma 18-50 f2.8 and had no issues at all, the camera hung exactly where I wanted it to and was very quick to grab for any drunken colleague moments.
So all in all I am very happy with it.
thinking of purchasing a black rapid rs7 are they worth the investment? or can someone recommend a cheaper alternative?

I've also just got the Q Double harness for when I've got the 5D3 and 60D on the go. I've only used it once so far and had the 5D3 and 150-500 on one side and a gripped 60D and 70-200 2.8 IS L on the other for over 90 minutes and still felt fresh as a daisy when I'd done. At a tenner for each strap and £12.99 for the harness you can't go wrong really.
I've got the hand strap on my DSLR, I love it but it means you can't have a shoulder strap as well. I like the look of the Custom SLR, any feedback Jacob?
