I have been carrying my NEX-7 with a wrist strap when suddenly it suffered a massive failure. Luckily it fell into my bike's handlebar bag! Now I have to find another one. Anyone have recommendations for a good, reliable, sturdy wrist strap that isn't huge? Something 2-3" wide is a non-starter for me. Thanks!
