I like my Op/tech pro strap, it makes your camera weight less and in Summer sweat is absorbed by strap and evaporated at the outside, you never feel a wet spot with this one.
Is it worth getting the Pro Loop Strap over the Pro Strap?
I have both a upstrap and rstarp and like them both on my d700..But I only use the rstrap when I use a small light weight lens. I use to have the optech but I'm not found of it bouncing up and down when it is on my shoulder when I am walking and sometime gets in the way of things from the bouncing.
I don't like the little narrow straps that come with alot of Dslr's nowadays, and I don't like the really big wide neoprene aftermarket straps either. My favorite ones are the medium width film camera straps that had film holders. I took the strap off my N75 and put it on my D80, I ought to stick some film in it to mess with people when I am out shooting

Check this sucker out...very cool. Put an A.S. clamp on the end of mine and attach to the L bracket.
Bigger glass, attach to the tripod foot. Slick! http://www.phunnybaggs.com/pages/rstrap.html
I use it for when I'm standing out with my 600, so I can have my 70-200mm vr on a D80 for short . unexpected shots -- hangs at my side and I don't even know it is there, that's how nice this strap is to wear and attach considerable gear to.
I did try it at a air show with same gear and a d300 w/17-55mm hangin' round my neck .. now that DIDN'T work at all .. the straps were overlapping, depending on which camera I brought up to shoot, had a strap problem ....... so won't do that again, but for hangin' out next to my 600 and not having to lay a second camera down or on back of my truck endgate .
I got A Tamrac N5057 “Boomerang” Neck strap the other day, And what a difference it is compared to the Canon stock straps I've been using all these years! The best thing about this strap is the quick release clips, So I can take the strap off when I don't need to use A strap.
Straps don't bother me much. I use the Rstrap all the time, and my main D300 has no strap. It's usually attached to the 600, where I certainly don't want a strap flappin' in the breeze addin' anymore problems to long lens shooting.
