I have a couple of neck straps. But none that I'm really happy with.
So if you have a peak design or similar let me know.
I'm not interested in one's that attach to the bottom of the camera.
Cheers

I have a Peak Design strap, Derek, but it's definitely not for sale. Couldn't be any happier with it. Brilliant bit of kit.

Good luck in finding what you want.

Yep. I remember recommending it to you on the other forum when you bought the k1 😁
I'll just buy New, but wanted to check if anyone was selling one.

Ah, I couldn't remember who it was.

So, thank you, it's ace! I carry the K1 and 15-30 around at gigs and there's no strain at all.

I use a £15 Op-Tech strap. Great strap for little money.

I use the OpTech neckstrap too, it's quite sturdy and does the trick. They look a bit flimsy but apparently hold up a decent bit of weight.
All the gear with no idea

Can't see why you want a neck strap since you have that lovely Joby over the shoulder one? I never use any other.
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass

Hi David. It's purely a weight issue, the k1 and 15-30mm are a very heavy combo, and i dont trust the swivel with the weight.
No peace of mind once it's in your head. 🤕🤕

With the Peak Design strap you can have quick release catches to take it off the body, which is handy when using a tripod. And when the 150-450mm lens is attached I keep one end attached to the camera and the other screwed into the lens foot, this avoids straining the mount and slung over the shoulder (foot rotated 90 degrees) it doesn’t wave around and fits snugly against your body. Only downside with the strap is it is rather stiff so cannot be shoved into a bag.
