I highly recommend that you use a sling strap (such as Black Rapid) attached to the tripod collar or tripod mount of the camera. The lens is large enough to put undue stress on the strap lugs.

I agree. I am planning to attach a sling strap to the tripod mount on the lens so that I can leave the lens on the strap when I switch to a smaller lens. I reserve the right to change my mind after I have actually tried it.....
