I like noose style camera straps. This was one of the only ones I could find on amazon when I ordered it.I like that its a noose style strap but:
Unless I manually grab the strap and tighten it, it will not tighten on its own. So in testing I can purposefully drop my heavy camera and the noose will not tighten at all. The place where the braided cable turns into the squishy strap bit, keeps it from freely sliding tighter. Once, I have manually tightened it, to be safe, it is no longer comfy to use.
It has this button and flap that does nothing???
Also the strappy part is always twisted, no matter what you do. The material feels junky (like nylon or whatever), but seems to be durable enough.
I usually don't use this and just go strapless now. When I find a better noose strap I will buy it.
In my opinion, the strap is too long for a noose strap. you can shorten it but then you have this long extra strap just hanging off... I guess I could cut it.
Basically I can complain about anything, and if you are picky like me, try to find a nicer noose.

You'll find yourself setting your camera down more, but you won't have your strap catching on things or get in the way when using your tripod. When I upgraded to a D800 I chose to go with the Noose instead of the Industry Disgrace because I knew I wouldn't want to set it down. After about 9 months I still use it and prefer it but there are some things you'll have to deal with.Good:
lightweight
non-bulky, won't get in the way of your tripod
won't snag on things when camera is set down (won't hang off tables, etc.)
Bad:
harder to change lenses on the go because you've only got one truly free hand (be careful!)
you'll have to set it down to really use your right hand
