" ...  This strap changed everything for me. ... I've long used the straps that came with my camera without complaint, but after seeing some reviews I wanted to give this strap a try for my 5D which is a bit heavy with glass attached.  ...  "

" ...  Being a fan of Blackrapid's straps, I wasn't sure that I would actually like this. ... The strap itself is quite comfortable with the material broad and padded enough so that it doesn't dig in.  ...  "
