Neck when shooting, when moving, I will sling across shoulder...

same here.

buy a d40x and hang it on your neck for 4 months straight without taking it off - your neck won't feel any pain at all. :bsmilie:

Try a D200 with grip or a D2Xs

I use hand strap (purchase seperately) and coil the neck strap around my right hand.

i coil it such that it's like a handgrip, tight and secure. =)

same here+using "Optech" in "shorten version"

Shoulder because my neck will ache after prolong period hanging of camera.

I read about a tip in a magazine to reduce the strain on the neck. It works for those who are carrying a backpack at the same time.

1) Neck sling the camera as usual
2) Clip a carabiner to the sling (position at the back of your neck)
3) Wear your backpack as usual
3) Attach the carabiner to the handle of your backpack.

The weight of the camera and backpack should offset each other and be distributed on your shoulders, not the neck.

Hope the description makes sense.

Yup. Agree. Will take some getting used to. I guess its for people who go for long hikes and little rest stops in between.

hmmmm:think: how to hook it if u r alone...

Hook first, slide the backpack up one shoulder, pull cam strap over head, slide backpack up the other shoulder. Presto.

hhmmm... nice suggestion.... may give it a try... used to hang on neck in the past... find it troublesome some times and in the way... so now either on shoulder or wrap around wrist.
