I use a Lanyard similar to what you have posted on my Nikon D200/Ikelite setup.

I sometimes don't bother clipping it off on shallow reefs, but on Deep dives IMO this is a must. I just watched a guy drop a $5000 setup on the Duane in current a couple weeks back. He dropped it near the surface trying to help untangle a diver on the surface line. In 120' of water and in a strong current, that rig is gone.

I clip my setup off to a shoulder dring, and that allows me to use both hands when needed.
