Woot just got my hands on this strap tried it at the SOy cosplay and later went to chinese garden.
Rs2 Strap
Pros.
1. As advertised really can have that quick draw feeling like western cowboy shooting. The movement of the hook on the strap is very smooth you it'll not get in the way.
2. Able to free both your hands and carry it like sling bag.
3. The fastener did not loosen at all for the entire day out.
4. Have small compartments to keep CF/SD cards, pens, lens pen and various small items.
3 slot for cf cards, 1 slot that can store about 2 pens. and a net pouch for small items.
5. The sling is padded, i currently only tried with 400D , 75-300mm lens on the comfort level is good.
6. The design prevents straps from straying across your viewfinder.
Cons.
1. The fastener, extends below about 1 inch, installed at the bottom of the camera gives the camera a pointing down resting position if you want to leave it on table/floor. Imagine having a Battery grip installed and it'll rest at an awkward position.
2. When moving quickly, long lenses protruding may bang into walls/gates/doors as the angle is not fixed when in storage/resting position( hanging by your side). easily over come by controlling with single palm without much effort.

OK this is how it goes:
If it's 2 people, it's $56 (the price of the RS2) + $13.40/2 (shipping)
If it's 5 people, its $56 (the price of the RS2) + $27.40/5 (shipping)
If it's 10 people, it's $56 (the price of the RS2) + $27.40/10
If it's 20 people, it's $56 (the price of the RS2) + $27.40/20
Prices all in USD before conversion.
I'll call up my Credit Card company to find out the US exchange rate they're charging me, and i'll let u guys know the final SGD amt.
I'll need u guys to transfer the $$ before I confirm ur order though.
RS2 comes with 1 fastener, if you need more better reflect to me.
Let's go with the time honoured habit of a list.
Interested parties please copy and paste, and add your nick to it.
PM me your number and real name too:
1) unseen (1 x RS2)
Edit: As I'm quite interested in getting this, so if we don't have 5 or more people, I'll just go ahead and get it share cost with the 1st person that replies. Let's set the cut off date as Friday.
