I finally put it to the test, the Crumpler SLR Strap.
Officially with only brown left on the shelves in Singapore, the black series all ran out of stock, not to mention the camo version. I got the brown anyhow. I do not fancy the camo verson due to its' bright green and i don't mind a strange color in the mix.
Paid $25 for it.
Going to Chinatown yesterday, i armed myself with it and side sling it for a good 3hours.
Why not neck sling? Well the cushion is quite broad. Somehow like a bag strap's size. So it's really good if you like to side sling.
However, after 3hours, my shoulder started to ache again...
Everything was right. But it still ache lor.
So i conclude.. It's the sheer weight of the camera.
The strap helps of course, if i am on the normal strap, maybe after an hour it would already start to hurt.

Nice one - perhaps you could also make a habit of changing shoulders!
And or using the strap at it's maximum length and wearing the camera sling style, across your front or back. Good luck!
