I don't like neckstraps either, but, they can save the camera from a fall so I usually use a neckstrap at its longest extension and always hold the camera in my hands, as you do. That way the weight of the camera is never on my neck unless something or someone causes me to drop it. It becomes a camera safety belt that way. Shooting at weddings and the associated receptions can be jostling events, the drunker folks get.
