Originally posted by jatrax I have been using the Op/Tech sling strap I like the way you can unsnap the strap when using a tripod, but leave the strap around your neck/shoulder. Easy to reconnect when you take the camera off the tripod. Very inexpensive as well. I bought an arca swiss plate that has a strap slot on the side so I only use the left camera lug and then the left slot on the tripod plate. The camera hangs right side down along my right hip and doesn't bounce around like a neck strap.[/url]
I use the same thing. But mine comes with a "built-in" hand strap
(see last photo). During event shooting, I use the hand trap most of the time, but always wear the sling strap just in case I need both of my paws free.
