... I agree with the person who wrote
that he needs no strap, which needs more space in the bag than the camera.
The only time I dropped a camera was when it was sitting on the edge
of a desk, with the strap dangling, and the strap got caught in
something and pulled the camera off the desk. My dad did the same
thing.
I take about 4" (10 cm for the rational world) of boot-lace, stick it
through the eyelet, and tie a square knot in it so that my second and
third fingers snugly slip through, leaving the first finger free for
the shutter. Then the camera becomes an extension of my arm, and is
every bit as secure as having it on a strap.
