Anyone have suggestions for a Camera strap, one that leaves the hooks on the camera, permanently and then when you attach the strap its very quick to clip on, checked out the following on B&H.

Would appreciate any thoughts, thanks.

I have this strap...I think?
I bought it or similar years ago, it came with plastic snap clips on the ends.
I use it all the time on my EX3, climbing up ladders and alike.
To connect it to the EX3 I got some Black Codura/Nylon strap material off an old stills camera strap, and stitched it permantly onto the EX3 into a loop using fishing line.
The loops are soft and do not make a noise on the camera when the strap is off.

I have the same one you referenced in the original post, however it has silver metal buckles. Works well and you leave the hoops on the cam... easy on and off.
