I'm using that strap and it's the only one I also use on my neck if I

Yep, the OPTECH neoprene straps are great! And not terribly expensive,

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

Never noticed the Luma Loop. I was thinking about the Blackrapid,
Sun-Sniper or Camdapter Slingstrap. Since I don't want to remove my QR
plate the only option was the camdapter sling. This Luma Loop has an
extra long option.
Now I don't know...

Thanks for the tip. Mounting a QR adapter on the sling is a good idea.
Since I'm using the camdapter with the strap, the Slingstrap makes
most sense. This thread got me thinking again and a free shipping
coupon from camdapter made me bite.

I have the pro and it's working like mentioned in the add. The weight
reduction effect is noticable and a plus is you can remove the shoulder pad
and connect the two smaller remaining straps and use it as a wrist strap.
