I do alot of landscape shooting. Very comfortable not having the camera dangling on my chest or navel but out of the way on my hip side. Feels so comfortable that it caught me off gaurd as to why no one ever came up with this long ago. If I need a quick shot, I just bring the camera up and quickly fire away without having to use a second hand as the strap gives me a steady hand. Great when climbing etc. When it's raining, the lens points downward thus saving my lens from being damaged. Seems alot easier to protect my camera from the elements with it on my side and not in front of me. Gives me the option to wear a camera vest where I store accessories without having the camera getting in the way. Store my small accessories on the strap such as wireless remote, scan-disks etc. This is very handy when I only bring the camera on any shoots without having to stuff my pockets and try to remember which pocket I put my accessories in. Also, it's easy to get to to the sccessories. Con: Wish I could leave the strap on and connect to a tripod or ball-joint pod without having to remove?

R-Strap. The revolution has begun....
The R-Strap is the most innovative camera strap ever to hit the market. This patent-pending equipment offers unparalleled peace of mind and ease of access to your camera. The R-Strap is worn diagonally across the torso from shoulder to hip and is adjustable to fit most photographers.
The pad has a mesh underside for comfort and breathability. The locking FastenR connects the R-Strap to the tripod socket located on either the camera body or the lens. Once connected, the camera hangs upside down, resting securely at your side or in the small of your back, with the lens pointing behind you.
With the camera at your hip or behind your back, you can maneuver easily througha crowd, carry a tripod or other gear, or simply have both hands free.
When you're ready to take the shot, the camera quickly glides up the strap into shooting position. Grab. Glide. Click.
The difference between the RS-1, RS-2, RS-3, RS-4 straps:
• RS-1: Black fabric, slim design, no storage pockets.
• RS-2: Black fabric, Front flap opens and has a zippered pocket on the inside for storing small things like memory cards. Front external pocket is good for smaller cell phones (not compatible with Iphones or PDAs).
• RS-3: Camouflage Ripstop fabric, Front external pocket is good for smaller cell phones (not compatible with Iphones or PDAs). Does not have flap that opens like the RS2.
• RS-4: Black fabric, front zippered pocket for storing small things like memory cards or business cards
Sizing:
The R-Strap is very adjustable. RS-1 & RS-4: 60" (30" from top of left shoulder to right hip). The max circumference of the RS-2 & RS-3: 72" (36" across torso top of left should to right hip bone. There is a sweet spot adjustment so when adjusting the R-Strap slide the camera up by pushing out slightly. The camera must come close to your eye. The R-Strap is very adjustable to fit most size photographers.
The R-Strap is so comfortable you hardly know you have it on. So, please mind your gear and always use plastic gate stop.
