Using BlackRapids Fasten-R2 with a "normal" strap?

[/"\/oo\/"\]

Hey everybody-

The more I shoot with my XSi, the more I'm annoyed with where the strap connects to the body on the right side when I grab it to take a picture :rolleyes: the fasten-r2 seems like a good solution as I do 100% handheld shooting and don't have much use for the tripod mount (at least for the time being).

Is the camera going to be ok being toted around by the tripod mount? And is the fasten-r2 going to be ok with the standard strap lopped on rather than one of blackrapid's (I'm perfectly content with the strap that comes with the camera)?

Thanks!

Use this with my D3 and love it :D I DO shoot with a tripod / monopod at times and making the change out to plate or back to strap isnt a big deal. Just get it...you wont be disappointed.
