OK, I'm a big tall guy but this is listed as a shoulder strap and if I wear it across my shoulder I can't move the camera. I really wush it was 12" or more longer. The shoulder pad acts as if it is coated with teflon (tm)!

In short: This is a neck strap with a slippery shoulder pad.

The little Battery/memory card case is nice.

I bought this for use with my DSC-H5. It's overkill for that camera because the camera is not really heavy enough to justify it. It's a LARGE strap and is pretty comfortable.

I bought this for my Sony DSC-R1 because the small strap that came with the camera wasn't padded. The R1 is a heavy camera, and after carrying it around my neck for a week on vacation, I realized I needed something better. I've had this new strap for a few months now, and have been on vacation twice more with the new one. It's a great strap.

It actually makes my camera feel lighter, which really surprised me. I'm guessing it's due to the padding on this strap. It's very comfortable to wear around my neck even if I'm carry the camera for 10 hours a day. My only complaint is that the shape of the strap makes it more difficult to carry the camera on my shoulder than I would like. I've looked at other straps, but for the price, this one can't be beat. I also love the small pouch which allows me to carry extra memory cards.

I bought this for my DSC-F717 camera. I personally did not like the cheap burlap strap that originally came with my camera. The portion of the strap that wraps around your neck is cushioned and does not bite down like the original strap. I recommend this if you have a "heavy" camera like mine and carry it for hour(S). It is over-priced for a strap so shop for the better price. The pouch can hold one battery and one memory stick, though I would not add it to the strap since it would make it more cumbersome.

Yes, it is a little short, but that depends on how you like wearing your camera, for me it's fine. One of the most comfortable I have ever come across. I used it years ago on an older camera and when I got my Sony A700, I knew it was a required item, I'm luck they did not discontinue it, since it has been out for years, but it hard to find!

I have used this strap in the past on my DSC-F717, DSC-R1 Sony Camera it worked well as a neck strap as well as a shoulder strap although I rarely carry my camera on my shoulder. This strap gives excellent support especially for DSLR's which I just purchased for my New Sony DSLR. It feels so much better compared to the little strap they include with the cameras. Best Bang for the buck as well I remember when this strap kit cost $50 but now you can get the for $18 and up Brand New. The Battery case is a nice feature as well it holds a spare battery and memory stick if needed. Clips onto the loops on either side of the strap. This strap is not made of leather but sure feels like leather and it is well made very high quality had mine for many years and will surely have the two just purchased for many years as well.

This strap's design is fantastic, not fool proof, but fantastic. It stays on your shoulder better than the factory included strap, and if you're not carrying around your camera bag, the battery pocket keeps you prepared for the battery change needs.

If you have a heavy camera like the Sony R1 you should get one of these, it really helps if you go out for long walks with your camera. It's kinda itchy if you use it in your neck, tough.

Well constructed strap, but too short. I like to sling the camera under my arm when not in use to protect it against bumps and to keep it out of the way. If the strap was long enough, I would have given it 4 stars. I'm going back to using a $10 Quantary deluxe padded strap.
