Before anyone says anything i also own the crumpler disgrace (red canon version). As much as i liked it, it is no where near as comfortable as the black rapid is!!! The crumpler is great versus other neck straps but the black rapid is a sling system. So in my opinion from using both go black rapid. Here is a an image of my Rsport on my 7D:

Dunno about the sport, but the normal R strap is killed and buried by the Crumpler IMHO.

Go for it. If you want a Neck strap then go crumpler. If you want that weight off your neck on a sling go Black Rapid.

OK those of you who suggested the Crumpler, you weren't kidding! I just got it in today and this thing is so comfortable! Such a big difference from the original strap. Thanks again
