It's the accessories that get you.

I've been taking pictures for a long time with a long succession of cameras. Whenever I get a new (or new to me) camera, the first thing I start looking for is the perfect strap. (The only exception was large format. With that, it's the search for the perfect tripod, a more expensive problem.) The strap dictates how comfortably you can and for how long you are willing to lug a particular camera around. I've found a direct relationship between the weight of a camera and the quality of the results. It can be a cruel motivator.
This is one of my all-time favorite cameras but it's a beast to carry around. Cross-body is always best. Being able to move it front to back easily is also important. Something that won't mash your boob is helpful. This is my second rope strap and it ticks most of the boxes.
