I don't concern myself much with the weight of my hardware, although I often walk considerable distances, over many hours, photographing subjects (close-up & macro) whenever I find them. I don't use a conventional camera strap as I find that it gets in the way.
On such long walks I wear a chest harness, which allows my camera to be suspended via a standard tripod-thread screw. The camera can be swung up and used while still attached.
More usually, when walking between shoots, I just rest my camera-holding hand on the top of my camera shoulder bag, which I invariably carry.
Looking more widely, I find camera and lens reviews wierd. The concern is with weigh, compactness and appearance. Image quality rarely gets a mention. I have other priorities.
