http://joby.com/camera-straps/ultrafit-sling-strap-for-women?gclid=CKKIrLTryLcCFQqf4Aod-iEAGgI wanted to insert it in that thread, but there was no fitting place.
I really like it a lot!
After I got it, they used me for a model in the ad in the link.

You look so different from your picture in your posts.

(14,910 posts)The Canon strap that came with my dslr was way too cumbersome. And short.
I highly suggest everyone gets one, it makes shooting a lot easier.

(34,138 posts)I tend to adjust my camera straps long so I can sling them that way, but it's a constant battle with my husband who shortens them as much as possible so he can carry the camera in his hand.
On my old full sized DSLR, I have a harness similar to this binocular strap/harness: http://www.vortexoptics.com/product/vortex-binocular-harness-strap. It keeps the camera secure and in front but makes it easy to lift the camera to my eyes. It also puts not pressure on my shoulders and does not throw me off balance, as a strap over the shoulder or across the chest does.
But my current favorite camera is much smaller and lighter so I don't need that much support for it.
My birthday is coming up - I know what to ask for!
Thanks!
