I know that.
But it seems that this system (a lens strap) is _aslo_ very practical when
you use a big lens such as a 300/4, 70-200/2,8, 100-400 IS, or anything else
at approx, the same weight.
Using this kind of lens and a, for example, a wide angle lens, to cover all
needs,force you to put back your big lens in your bag, when used with one
bodies (with 2 lenses) .
With this system, there is no need to put the white lens in you bag, just
put it on your strap and go on !
