Thanks for commenting! Your comment is well-written and has a helpful tone, which is rare here on YT. I have to assume you're a bot! I just went and reversed the strap and put it back on to remind myself how that felt. I think the problem falls into the bucket that this is designed to be worn across the back exclusively and due to it being a camera carrier... I'm wanting a sling that sometimes is on the back and sometimes spins around to be worn on the front depending on how often I'm pulling out the camera. I think this bag could potentially serve that purpose with a padded strap the entire length and an easy way to increase the length and shorten the length depending on the moment/mood/situation (like the Peak Design straps). while i was looking/thinking about this situation, I thought maybe just replacing the strap IS the answer... so I dug up a few straps I had sitting around including the Tim Bihn absolute strap, which actually improved the comfort by a fair margin, but didn't totally solve the issue and also created an awkward hanging with the bag leaning away from the body more than it should. I think if there were a couple of hook points that were higher up above the center of gravity on the bag, then it could come down to simply choosing a strap I liked better. Anyway, thanks again for your comment, I hope it and this comment, help others make the right choice for themselves!

BTW, their website says the strap adjusts from 52" down to 16" on the current models which does seem short.

Yes! Just tried the ronin-s and it fits fine. Later versions should fit even better. I posted a pic on my community posts.

That’s a fair point to bring up but even as a sling it’s not working for me. Cuts into the neck too much and the shoulder strap doesn’t hit the shoulder. Kind of awkward to have a sling this bulky up in front of you or to the side. That’s why I want it to hang lower.
