i found a use for that silly strap:

also, this hard case fits the XH-A1 nicely, and with creative padding and packing, everything else. it's also the right size for carry-on, it locks, and the wheels detach. (i'm buying another one for laptop, hard drive, etc.)!!!
AND it's CHEAP:

also, i put the camera in a sleeping bag sac for a dust/moisture/scratch protector when packed in the case. call me obsessive-compulsive, but it works...

Of course you have to remember to hang the camera over your back (or fit the raincover).

Shoulder strap, obviously a major defect from Canon. :)
