I also came across the following and they look nice however the price on
them does not. I am not sure either how comfortable I am with having the
camera hang at my side as it just seems that I would be bumping it into
things or into others. With having the camera in front I have better control
with keeping an eye on where it is and what I may hit it up against.

i've looked at that style but never tried them; skeptical because of how
loosely controlled the camera seems to become
I may end up getting the following and only because I discovered yesterday,
from just walking around outside the house with the camera, that the strap
that came with the camera is not comfortable around the back of the neck.

i use a minimal op/tech strap like the "fashion bino" on this page:
<http://optechusa.com/straps/classic-strap.html>
(mine is leather at the nylon/neoprene joint, and "OP/TECH" is not
printed anywhere, just embossed into the leather); it's been plenty
strong, comfortable and durable, carrying k200d and mostly medium-sized
lenses like Pentax 16-45, sometimes longer, heavier zooms; it's just
starting to fray after about three years of regular use; i carry the
camera on my left hip at elbow height and sling the strap across my
chest and over the right shoulder; when walking the camera is pretty
stable whether on the front, side or back of my hip; on the back of my
hip, it is still pretty well protected in crowds by my elbow, and i can
keep it away from brush or rocks when scrambling
