[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 789886, member: 48483"] I use Peak Design's Anchor Link system. Straps tend to stay off of my cameras until I need one now. I might install a Peak Design Cuff just to keep a camera secure to my hand. I might install the full-sized Slide strap for a longer walk or carry. The Anchor Links can take some twisting without bothering me, but they still twist some. Since I remove the straps frequently, this does not become a growing nuisance over time. I also have an older strap I bought 13 years ago and still like to use. It is long out of production. Branded "National Geographic" back when they licensed their name to several photo accessories. It is a natural fiber khaki strap (possibly hemp) on the wider, main part around the neck. There are brass D-rings on the ends to which the narrow end straps clip on to. All of the clip hardware is also brass, and the clips have a full-swivel on them. So while you wear the strap around the neck, you can just twist the ends with your fingers to untangle the ends. And of course you can remove the neck part and clip the ends together to have a hand-carry strap. I plan to keep that strap as long as it stays together. When I bought the Peak Design straps, I bought the Anchor Link upgrade system that you can use to adapt a normal strap to the Peak Design system. This Nat Geo stap tends to be used about as much as the others. I found this old photo from before the Anchor Links. Look at the bottom edge and you see the brass swivel of the Nat Geo strap. Don't have the full strap view accessible.
