Hi Guy,

     I'm I alone in being a 'no strap' photographer?  I find neckstraps
resticting, I can't move the camera at will, often to unusual viewpoints
when I'm not looking through the viewfinder and estimating the
focus.  With a neckstrap, it's unlikely I would use the camera in a 
freer, less preconceived way.  The Leica can be kept in the pocket or
handbag, removed for a shot and than replaced.
