Capture Camera Clip V3 Solo, Black Clip Only, Holds DSLR, Compact and Point and Shoot Bodies, Secure, Stable and Accessible, Attaches to Straps and Belts, Quick Release, 90kg Capacity

Have no doubt about it, this product is the best of its kind. It is an example of excellent design and engineering. It is extremely easy to use and the Peak Design plate slips beautifully into the clip, making it 100% secure. The tolerances in its construction also make it simple to lock/unlock and withdraw one's camera from the clip. Other makers have similar products that sometimes stick a little when one tries to access the camera and the shot can be missed because of that, but it doesn't happen with Peak Design's Capture Clip. The big question though is whether this clip is worth five or six times the prices of some of the copycat items available to buy on the web? I have owned some of them, and they do work. However, they don't work with the same sort of precision and ease as the Peak Design version. If you have spent £2-3K on a camera and lens, you no doubt appreciate the best of design and construction. Therefore, you will probably remember the quality of this product long after you have forgotten how much you had to pay for it.

I bought this to help with treks with my Shimodo backpack. The S1H is a heavy camera so slinging it round ones neck or using a wrist strap not ideal. When the camera is out of the bag I wanted quick access whilst efficiently carrying it. The Shimdo shoulder straps have a lot of attachments loops ad fixings, so that was the first choice in terms of position. This is something i need to experiment with in the field. The Capture easily mounts and I didn't have to swap bolts to the longer versions. I bought the Capture without a plate and bought instead the PD "Dial Plate" for both Manfrotto RC2 fittings and ARCA. I have a Manfrotto MHXPRO-3W so the RC2 plate was needed. I tested the plate first in the Manfrotto head. I noticed that it will go in one of two ways, but only one way is the right way. When it's mounted incorrectly, the plate is not secure. The original plate that comes with the head can only be mounted one way. So, when the PD Dual Plate is mounted correctly (it has a lens direction arrow underneath), it's as solid as a rock. It's well and truly locked. Have no problem trusting my S1H using the PD Dual Plate. Once that was confirmed I then mounted it on and off of the PD Capture Clip.. Worked everytime.. and felt very secure. Need to do a field test, on a trek.. but don't anticipate any issues.

This is a beautifully executed bit of design and function. I’d seen previous versions of these clips and while they seemed functional they were a bit clunky, too big, too sticky outy and a bit too noticeable. Peak did some serious work on this version and it’s now sleek, small and discrete and just works really well. I also like the slim and light arcs Swiss compatible camera plates and the new Pro Pad really adds to the carryability of heavier gear. Is there any downside. Well, it’s a little pricy but the quality stands out.

If you're fed up with your camera banging about on the end of its neck strap then try this clip. It's well-made, slick in use and keeps the camera secure when you're moving about (like scrambling up mountainsides). For me, a keen hiker and lover of the wilds, it's brilliant. But it's plate is unqiue to the clip. A 3rd-party Arca Swiss type plate won't work and the Peak plate might not work with your tripod head's clamp. Check with Peak Design for compatible tripods and heads. However it should work with most screw-lock type Arca Swiss clamps and many heads can have their clamp changed.

Although expensive, this is easily the best piece of camera equipment I have bought. It honestly makes such a difference just having the camera to hand at all times. Before the capture clip, I walked past tonnes of photos that I wasn't sure of which is laziness on my part. I don't walk past photos now because it's so easy to whip the camera out of the clip and start framing within seconds. Yes it's expensive, but the value of having the convenience outweighs the cost, so much so I bought a second one to put of my day bag for when our with the family. I've also used this with my XT3 and the 100-400 lens and still found this comfortable, and easy to use... No brainer!!!

Taking a back pack off to get to your gear can be a pain. Even if you have a back pack designed to be accessed without taking it completely off (like my mind shift back pack). On a backpack works best with smaller (mirrorless) cameras/lenses. Pretty good with DSLRS (e.g. Nikon D800/D850) and prime lenses. For DSLR with zoom lenses (16-35, 24-120, 70-300) its OK but starting to get awkward due to the tendency of the kit to be lens heavy and get in the way due to bulk, its better to use the pro-pad and belt mount the camera instead. I have two of these mounts and usually have one with a camera and a second with the lens kit to make lens change easier whilst hiking.

Excellent quality. As expected from this brand. Works well with my PD sling bag Recommend watching PD video to setup

Thought this might be a gimmick, but it is really useful for freeing both hands to do other things. I use it on rucksack shoulder. Just make sure the angle is right, as if not it can be tricky to slide the camera in. So far it has been very secure, and held an R8 plus lenses well on long hikes and around town. Only wish is that all the small plate manufacturers (PD/Pyg/Neewer) would agree on a standard size for the camera plates, then more things would be fully interoperable.

Came nicely packaged, brand new. I use this on my hiking trips and honestly, its so sturdy, I never have to worry about my camera falling off. Just remember to tighten the screws (for both the hand-twist on screws and using the key to tighten it on to your strap). If you want hands-free quick access to your gear, look no further. Only complaint, (this has NOTHING to do with the design of the clip) but just so you know ... issue is that if you have filters (ND filter with CPL) on your camera, it might rub against your clothes as the camera is on the clip. My ND filter eventually gotten loose over a period of time, rolled down the hill, landed on a certain angle and cracked the first layer of the filter! I was so sad, almost in tears. Just something to note if you're having filters on while wearing the peak design clip. Otherwise, a great buy!

It is quite a handy accessory to have. It works as advertised and holds the camera tightly. All is good, except one day while I was walking around town, the clip just came off camera. It was unbelievable, coz not just the clip came off bag, rather the screw was completely out. I had tightened the clip as much as physically possible, but it just came lose. Since then I have noticed that it keeps on getting lose with time, and I'm always cautious about my camera. I installed it again on my Lowepro350 shoulder strap, however have to tighten it regularly.

I had heard Peak Design created some well loved/rated photography bags, mounts and straps, and I really liked the idea of mounting my camera to the shoulder strap on my backpack. So, I thought I’d try the Capture Camera Clip V3 Solo out. It’s a tight fit on my Lowepro backpack (wide straps), but it mounts securely and compresses the strap cushioning for a perfectly flush fit on the backside (shoulder facing side) of the strap. Even with a fully loaded pack, I can’t feel the back of the plate against my chest/shoulder. It’s very comfortable and I don’t even know it’s there, other than the weight of the camera. Clipping the camera in is dead simple...slide it in until it clicks. Removing it is just as easy. I had read a few complaints about difficulties pressing the safety release while removing the camera (some saying it requires two hand), but I had no such issue. I have big hands and as I grab the camera grip with my fingers, I can easily press the release with my thumb. It all happens in one smooth motion using only my right hand. For reference, I purchased Camera Clip V3 Solo (clip only version), along with the Peak Design Dual Plate V2. I have Manfrotto tripods and heads with RC2 mounts, so this Dual Plate works with both the Clip and my tripod heads. The Dual Plate works perfectly with the V3 clip and also well with the RC2 Manfrotto heads. Now for a quick testimonial... Yesterday I went for a hike/climb on some rocky terrain and had my Sony A7 with the 12-24mm lens (heavy) locked into the clip. I took a hard fall going over a boulder and was able to catch myself, somewhat, by my forearms and sort of tuck and roll. It was a violent impact (says my arms and shoulders), but the clip held fast and saved an expensive lens. I can only imagine what would have happen to either the camera or lens if I had used a neck or should strap instead of this. I’m sold on this clip mount, and highly recommend it...especially if you’re an active outdoors hiker/photographer.

Używam go już ponad rok, jestem zadowolona z zakupu. Aparat na zapięciu trzyma się solidnie i nie zjeżdża, nie ma luzów, nic nie skrzypi, wszystko trzyma jak przymurowane do mnie, dużo łatwiej w ten sposób nosić mi aparat.

Je mets ce support à la ceinture pour un Nikon z6 ou zf mais à l'usage. Il est préférable de ne pas mettre un objectif trop grand sinon cela peut gêner. Dans ce cas, le mettre sur une bretelle de sac à dos. Très pratique une fois qu'on a le coup de main.
