The Leica strap works but the Domke is more comfortable especially if it comes in contact with your skin, seems less inclined to slip off of your shoulder, won't mark the camera body, comes in a variety of colours and is easy to install and remove. Besides all of that, I have an aversion to plastic! Ian Stanley Kathmandu, Nepal
