OpTech is the go to for quick release straps-also very comfortable.

Make that 3! I spend alot of time with the main strap off and the small strap around my hand gripping my camera. But on long days at theme parks, the gel strap is a neck saver. I love optech, it was also very affordable and durable,I have been using mine with heavy gear for 6 years now.

I like Peak because I can carry a big lens and have it hang by my hip out of the way. Great for walking through crowds, brush, etc.

Personally, quick releases scare me when I have a few grand wrapped around my neck. Accidents happen and if they can be released that quickly upon demand, they can be released just as easily by accident. Personally, I would devise a way of hanging the strap above the camera on the copy stand which keeps it out of the way.

I also use OP/TECH straps for my heavy camera/lens. I use this for the lighter packages:

The Slide from Peak Design is the most functional perfect strap I have ever found.
