Could you elaborate on this KameraLeder strap you mention?  So far,
I've been in the habit of outfitting cameras with the swivel-less
1-inch Domke "Gripper" straps (thin nylon straps leading to a wide
cotton section with Domke's woven-in rubber slip-reducing strands on
the inner surface), with the only fiddly bit being that I tend to
apply a bit of tape to try and keep the split part of the ring where
the strap attaches to the camera's lugs from rotating down to the lugs
and chewing on them.  It's hard to imagine a strap being much more
unfussily useful, but I'm always ready to learn -- you have a history
of optimizing camera setup in a pleasing way.
