Switched to a Sunsnyper while I was still in the camera store. No neck strain.

I would listen to everyone responding with sling strap.

I also use three bodies, 2 nikons (F6 and D500) along with a (very, very) HEAVY Mamiya RZ67. I use the Op/Tech triple harness and it leaves me without any neck or shoulder pain.

I have a Peak Design strap on my Nikon P900, and a Black Rapid strap on one of my Canons, but probably my favorite is a simple strap that connects to D rings on my other Canon, clips on and off in maybe 10 seconds, and came from K-mart about 40 years ago. And I would love to find another one like it!

You can find some pretty nice buys at K-Mart, huh, Bill?

40 years ago it was all I could reasonably afford. Still works, as does a cheap aluminum monopod from there too.

There are still one or two around, but, after the merger with Sears ... less and less, than there used to be ... shame!!!

Yeah, thieves might want the Canon strap, but not if it meant being stuck with a Nikon camera!!!!!!

I have a dual, but found that I don't switch cameras that fast during a wedding, so it's easier for me to move around with just one, and switch as needed. I think it's a style thing. Neither one is correct or wrong. The older I get, getting up and down quickly is hard enough, slinging around 2 camera bodies at once gets more challenging, I can only imagine 3... my hat is off my bald head to you for being able to still get up and down with 3 camera bodies (and heavy lenses)

Great, Paul ...

It kinda got lost in the shuffle, huh?

Neat strap, though ... no "Sony" all over it ....
