I carry my K20 using the Luma, and the doohickey that you snap onto fits into the strap loop just fine. After getting used to it, it feels 100% secure even with the 50-135 on; that's a pretty heavyweight combination in the Pentax context. It's astoundingly convenient having it hanging right there at your side where you can swing it up instantly with one hand. -T
