My newly acquired 690BL has no strap. Where can I purchase the correct strap to be able withstand the 2kg of camera/ lens. The strap must have the correct metal traingle bits aswell. Any suggestions will be most greatful.

Try the Op/Tech Super Pro strap. While very resistant (it is designed to carry medium format SLRs), it is made of neoprene (soft rubber foam) material, making it the most comfortable strap I know. You have to try it to believe but this strap is so good it actually makes you forget you are carrying a G690BL around your neck. Here is the link to the manufacturer's page (the right type of strap lugs for the G690BL is the design "B"):
