What I have found works pretty well is to use the Tamrac neck and hand straps which have the short pigtails that attach to camera and grip lugs and quick-relase clips. You can put three pigtails on each body/grip combo and quickly switch between handstrap and neckstrap. I've used this setup on the Elan IIe with BP-50, the 1n with PB-E1, the EOS 3 with BP-E1 and PB-E2, and the D60 with the Big-Ed.
