I'd give anything to find the wide, long, "folksinger guitar strap
looking" camera straps that used to be common when I got my first Oly
(1979). Although I have severalOlympus straps and a domke strap,
nothing else is as secure, comfortable, and easy to dealwith as the
strap that my OM-1n still hangs from. Unfortunately, everywhere I
look now they've committed themselves to neoprene, quick release (my
old strap just has snap clips), and brand names written on the strap.

FWIW, I'd gladly trade a couple of Olympus logo straps for hoods or
film.
