Could someone please recommend a cheap and reliable camera strap which has a pad which sits on your shoulder, but allows you to quickly draw the camera? I've read about certain straps which you secure using the screw fixing, but some of these have come loose despite being tightened completely.
 
I use this style RS-4 R-Strap » BlackRapid.com and have never had any problems, even when climbing waterfalls

+1 brilliant strap, comfortable, works perfectly. I have never had any issues with of the screw connector coming loose (although i check often during use) Even with 7D, Battery Grip & heavy 70-200mm F2.8 lens.

Bought mine 2nd hand but like new from ebay for a bargain £25

looks kinda similar......it would worry me as to how good a material is this "Cheap" version of the black rapid.

I wouldn't risk my gear with this to be honest as i know nothing about the product, the brand and the quality.

Black rapid has got an awesome reputation for high quality products and its quite hard to find real negative feedback on there product reviews.

There must be a reason why its much much cheaper......!!
