I am a wedding photographer. After a long day of shooting a wedding I am just so tired of having my cameras on straps around my neck.

I saw some people use camera straps around the shoulder which puts the weight on the shoulder rather than the neck area....

Do you use them? Which one would you recommend? How about HoldFast camera straps?

Thanks so much!

This method really takes the weight off as the whole backpack harness shares the weight. Snap a carabiner, (a real one), onto your pack and snap in the camera strap. Use an OP Tec strap as they can't be beaten for comfort...they give a little.

For a moment I thought Matt had a bowie knife sheath on his belt. Alas and alac, I think it's his sunglasses' case...
