Strap is a Black Rapid R-strap. I was gonna do a review type post on this setup. I was trying to get a very portable and usable rig for walking around in NYC. I came with:

K100d Super
DA40 (keep hood, ditch screw-on lenscap)
ebay snap-on lenscap
Black Rapid R-strap
Manfrotto quick release (R-strap connects to tripod socket)
Lenscoat body pouch

Unfortunately still quite bulky as you can see in the pictures...

Oh, let me add, I love every part listed above, except maybe the K100d Super, I was a bit disappointed in, having started on a K10d. There's a hundred small things that makes the K10d a lot more satisfying to use.

The R-strap is totally killer. I've replaced that bulky thing that screws into the tripod mount with a manfrotto quick release plate (which has a D-ring on the bottom).
