I'm talking about a single strap around the neck or off the shoulder.

If so, what are you using?

What have you tried?

Anything you've tried that really stands out from the rest for comfort or versatility?

I'm using the OEM strap. But I almost never have my camera over my shoulder.

I use a regular neck strap, all black, one side has a anti-sliding material that is starting to fade. I think I may replace with a leather neck strap similar to the ONA ones without the ONA price.

Not if you want to be a hipster.

I use a strap by Riley G design works. Comfy materials, super solid construction, matches my attire usually and doesn't make me look special-forces.

Couldn't recommend them highly enough

This year I've been using the spider holsters, but last wedding I changed it up and went back to the Canon CPS Straps...and I'll now be returning to the holsters lol.. Only if I was using one camera all day or had an assistant to hold all my stuff. That's the only way I'd ever go back to one strap. But, I do think the CPS strap is the most comfortable strap I've ever used.

I really like the 'leash' by peak design. Technically it's a single strap so I think it counts.

I usually have the leash on one camera, and the cuff on the other, so my secondary camera hangs off to the side at my hip and my main is practically always in hand.

Was using leash from Peak Design, but will switch over to their wider straps that they just put out (ordered 2 via Kickstarter). I think they planned that way so they could double sell (sell skinny straps first, then when word is out already, sell wider straps... zzZZzz).

I do use the BlackRapid RS-Sport 2 when I'm using the 70-200/2.8 or 200/2, and sometimes I use the BlackRapid DR-2.

I've got two of those which I use once in a blue moon. Usually stick with my MoneyMaker but once in a while I just want one camera and a normal strap.

I do. When I want to have a conversation starter at weddings, I use an old Canon Rebel strap on my D4. That usually gets the Uncle Bob or Cousin Becky really going. I mainly just do it to get a rise out of people. They never take notice of the camera....just the strap.

99% of the time I don't use straps though. It's much easier for me that way. BUT...because I'm so tall, I need extra long straps and use a company called http://www.capturingcouture.com/ that has killer, extra long men's straps. So If I'm doing an engagement shoot where I'll need a strap, that's my go-to.

Using a couple wide nikon straps. Love them. They do say "Nikon" but don't advertise the camera model which is great. It's also a different color than your normal ones.

So you're using the OEM strap around your neck? There's got to be a lot more comfortable than that.

And you don't mind walking around a high-end event with the bold print "NIKON" or "CANON" across your dress clothes?

My wife uses a Black Rapid strap but I am 100% a spider dual holster user. Prior to getting the Spider I used a CPS strap and it was comfy.
