[QUOTE="Greywoulf, post: 3067, member: 636"] No, I wouldn't buy a strap like that... I like to travel as light as I can and carry my D40 in a shoulder holster bag that also holds one or two extra lenses . Having a complicated strap with hardware like that would only mean I'd probably get the LCD or a lens all scratched up from stuffing it into the bag with the camera... I also have an old comfortable Focal strap that I don't use now because it has these large plastic buckle type sliders that I don't want in the bag next to my camera! -The Nikon strap is at least better in that way, but it's ridiculously uncomfortable on your neck IMO. So I now think a soft neoprene strap with small plastic quick disconnects might well fit my likings, but I'll let you know after it comes... And I definitely do not agree that having no strap at all means I'll drop my D40. By leaving my holster bag's top flap partially unzipped, I can take the camera out to shoot and stick it back in quickly and comfortably, and attaching a camera strap that's large, clumsy to fold, and has metal hardware, would just get in my way... (And perhaps THAT could even cause me to fumble with the camera?) [/QUOTE]
