Shoulder vs. neck strap

[Randy Stout]

Good day all:

I have always used various shoulder straps, and like the Op tech straps, but have wondered about the pros and cons of a true shoulder strap, such as the Up Strap. I worry about a shoulder strap slipping off as I bend over, turn around quickly while tracking birds, etc. (with second body hanging on shoulder starp)

Also curious if many people use handstraps?

Thanks so much for the input!

The Up Strap seems to stick like glue. Never had it fall off.

Thanks Bob:

I guess I had better try one!

Randy,
I agree that the Upstrap is a good product and worth a try. I once tried putting my camera over my shoulder while I was wearing a leather jacket, and it stayed in place! They're not cheap, though....
