You have a camera that has lens accessories such as a plastic lens cap that
cost several hundred bucks.... and you start getting queasy about a strap
that is made by hand and costs $150?

I doubt the major objection is price.... among the general population of
Leica users...

But I do agree that the thing seems pretty much a solution looking for a
problem...

But more so that this is an egregious implementation of what is essentially
a camera strap that costs over $100. I also think the holster is a solution
looking for a problem. 


The method of carrying the camera DOES look quite comfortable though and the
load is spread across a broader area (then again I could get a Sears "hippie
strap" and take care of that.) Again, just my opinion.
