The Peak Design camera clips are neat for when you want fast access without it bouncing around, and happen to be wearing a backpack, great for hiking/biking. I've not found any kind of strap I can tolerate.
Tried them. Hated the things dangling off the camera.
Edit: Wait. Those are different. I have tried that also. Better, but the camera still bumps my hip or wherever I put it. I just use an easy access bag I can get it in/out of in 3 seconds or less.
Hmm, I have only used them on backpack straps, and it works well for me mounted high on the chest, as long as there is enough counter weight on the bag and the straps are relatively tight it stays tight to your body when moving around. Even works well with a silly long lens like the RF800mm. You can even remove the safety release for easy one handed access. YMMV of course.
