Pros: It has a great price, almost 1/6 of price to orginal black rapid in Norway.,
It also has good quality,
I specialy liked the holder to cam, because camera was better angled on my hips when i used it.
Also that I can mount tripod without taking it of was great!!
I have the orginal RS-4 strap, and its almost the same quality.
Cons: It have too short strap!!!
The orginal Black Rapid RS-4 has a longer strap, and feels better when wearing it.
Other: Quality seems to be same as the orginal, and is a good alternative to orginal RS-4.

Pros: This sling type strap goes over your torso and left shoulder, with comfortable padding over the shoulder and a small zipped pocket. the camera is screwed onto a mounting plate via the tripod mount.
You can still use a tripod with this mounting plate on the camera.
It lies comfortably at your hip and every time you need to shoot, just grab it and it will slide up (on an apparently strong and durable metal hook) easily to your eye. The strap does not move, only the camera slides up and down the strap.
Everything is adjustable to your height and desired camera resting/shooting positions.
Cons: Only con is that you cannot rest your camera on a flat surface while the mounting plate is on.
Small price to pay for the world of difference you will feel when using this.
Other: Fantastic purchase, strongly recommended.
I have a 4 year old that i have to run after and play with, this strap will allow grabbing a quick shot among all of that running and playing without any effort at all. I am also confident that the camera is secured and out of harms way.

Pros: This is a great concept: you use this strap on your left shoulder and the camera hangs nicely on your right hip. It is a comfortable setup and quick to go from resting to shooting position (It wont work well if used on the right shoulder/left hip, but every camera has it's grip on the right hand side, so this isn't a con from my pov).
- The strap is of a good quality nylon and the shoulder padding is well made and ergonomic. It is soft enough, wont slip easily and is made in a slightly curved shape, to rest comfortably around the neck (that is why the strap wont work on the right shoulder). Overall build quality is good enough and it seems like the strap will last for long time.
- The carabiner is thick and made of good quality metal alloy. I'm sure it can hold a big camera with big glass. I'm using mine with a Canon 60D + Tamron 70-300 VC lens (about 1,5kg setup) and I'm absolutely confident it wont break and drop my baby. I could say it is able to safely hold some bigger toys. The carabiner has a con though, so keep reading.
- The mounting-plate was a good surprise. Based on the pictures, I was expecting a plastic plate but it is actually made of aluminium alloy. It is nowhere near unbreakable, but feels stronger than I thought it would be. On it's top, there is a rubbery padding. The hole for the carabiner is reinforced with a metal washer. It's a thin brass washer that will go away pretty soon, but it is there nonetheless. The mounting screw is OK. Nothing much to say about it. As seen on the pictures, there is a thread on it's bottom, so it is possible to mount the camera on a tripod without removing the strap's mounting-plate.
Cons: The only real con I've found so far is the carabiner's moving part. It is a bit flimsy and seems it'll get worse with time. The weak spot is the pin that connects the moving arm to the main portion of the carabiner. It is way too thin and bad quality tin. That is where the strap is gonna break.
Not something to worry too much though. If this pin breaks, your camera wont fall (it hangs from the main body of the carabiner which is strong enough). It most likely will break in your hands when mounting/removing the strap from the camera. Once it breaks, you can replace the original carabiner.
That's why I knocked down one star on build quality.
Other: It is a great product. I would recommend it to a friend. Only time can tell if it will last, but I have no reasons to doubt it will.
It could (like always) be a bit cheaper, but, overall, I'm happy with my purchase.

Pros: Comparable in quality and style to certain branded straps
folds up small and doesn't take up much room in bag
pocket for cards ect is nice
Cons: Strap is very short. Great for a smaller person. I am 6'3" and at the length this strap is when fully extended the camera would sit just below my arm pit while I would like it on my hip or maybe a bit above. this problem was solved by removing the provided nylon webbing and rigging up my own. I also prefer the r-strap camera connection better so pretty much I bought this strap for the shoulder pad and hook. I still consider it a good purchase but wish it would have came with a longer strap. Other than that There are no cons.
Other: Much cheaper than the r-strap and almost as good in quality. I've owned numerous r-straps and this is a serious competitor. Just needs a longer strap.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Very practical, very comfortable, good build quality, much cheaper than other brands. I like the mounting plate and how it´s possible to angle the fastener point. I had no problems with the length of the strap. It´s possible to still use a tripod without taking the mounting plate off the camera. Great product!
Cons: Can´t think of any.
Other: My best purchase from DX so far. Get it, you will not be disappointed. Very comfortable, even when carying a large DSLR body with a big heavy tele lens.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Very easy to use. Much better than the camera's original strap.
Contrary to what most people said on here, I find the strap to be long enough. I'm about 5'3" but by adjusting the strap I can make the camera hang at around my knees, so I doubt you'll find this short.
The metal carabiner where the camera is attached to the strap slides and makes it amazingly easy to pull your camera from waist level up to your eyes.
Cons: The padded portion could be a little bigger.
The plate that attaches to the camera is too big for my camera (Canon T2i) and gets on my face, but nothing too annoying.
Other: This is one of the purchases I've made here on DX that I enjoyed the most. It's not on the cheap side, but it's incredibly useful. I'm using this on my Canon EOS 550D / T2i and I love it. It's a lot less intrusive than the original camera strap and a thousand times more useful.
Get this!

Pros: - Good construction - Very comfortable - Camera plate feels solid and reliable - Tripod's quick release plates can be attached to camera plate, so you don't have to remove it if you want to use tripod - Best camera strap I´ve ever tried
Cons: - As it was said in other reviews, the carabiner feels a little flimsy, specially the moving part. - Maybe not so good with flash attached, so you have to be extra careful - Due to camera plate construction, it´s not stable to release the camera on a desk or similar surface (Even worse with flash attached)
Other: Great for outdoor photo, but you have to be extra careful when shooting with external flash attached.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Very well built, better than I expected! No loose threads, very sturdy material & carabiner. I could swing my 40D (not that light) with my Sigma 17-70 around without a care. I'm about 1m76 and it is plenty big for me. It is an unbeatable price, much better than the 'real' alternatives!
Cons: I couldn't really find any yet. If I ever drop the camera while it's attached to this thing, it'll probably be my own fault, and not the Quick Strap's.
Other: If you want a better, easier and faster method of carrying your camera, this is the one you're looking for. Instead of strangling myself with the default strap, I can now bring my camera to my eye in less than a second. Great stuff!
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: This strap is just what you need with your DSLR ! It allows you to : - carry you camera without effort : the shoulder strap pad is large enough for you not to feel the weight of it - do not look stupid with you camera on you chest (like with around-the-neck usual straps) - do very quick pictures : your camera is just where you hand search for it, it is magical ! - carry memory card of some small stuff in the strap pocket - like the very expensive model from Blackrapid; it has a "return to zero" feature that makes the difference.
Cons: There is not user manual. It is a drawback as far as this product is a little less simple that it seems. Once you understand how to set it up, it's OK.
Other: I highly recommand this product : it solves the annoying thing about DSLRs : carrying and quick shooting. Now, you can be even a reporter of a tourist with attitude !
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: I was looking for this kind of accessory. Very useful, and gives you more comfort to carry the camera, specially for me, while using my equipment outside for nature photography. The equipment weight is distributed on your shoulder. Very easy to adjust, and reliable.
Cons: None.
Other: I recommend this product, specially if you are tired to hang your equipment on your neck. DX please consider to offer an optional model for heavier equipment.
