Y, N only.
==========

1) Do you have a strap on your camera(s)?

2) Do you use it all of the time without exception when handholding?

3) Do you use it half / most of the time when handholding?

4) Do you use it only some of the time when handholding?

Yes, yes, no, no

I am arthritic, and can no longer trust myself to not drop stuff....The
strap goes over my head when I first pick up the camera, and doesn't come
off unless I am using a tripod, or putting it down.....

questions 2, 3, 4 are mutually exclusive. Using a camera strap is cheap
insurance. Gravity is a bitch.

The problem is, it sometimes gets in the way, and it is not easy to remove
it....I have a little aluminum clip that would work well, but I only have
one of them, and I haven't been able to find another one, so I can't use it.
I need a pair of them that are small, and yet strong enough to hold my 2-1/2
pound camera plus a lens....

This is a badly designed survey.
