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

One of the best camera accessories I've bought!I bought this clip in preparation for a weekend away where I would be taking lots of photo's. The clip was easy to fit and didn't interfere with the comfort of the bag. Clipping the camera in and out was fast, simple and most importantly, secure!I carried a Sony A7III with a 70-350MM lens for 2 days with any problems.There are cheaper clips available, but this is very well made and is a reliable brand so I do believe the additional cost is justified.

It's not perfect, but it is definitely good enough for 5 stars.I use it hill walking and it gives me easy, fast, one-handed access to my camera. I have it paired with a Peak Designs Cuff (another very good piece of kit), and I can attach the cuff to my wrist, click the release button on the Capture, and take the camera out quickly and entirely one-handed.On my first outing using the Capture I did run into a problem. The base plate that's attached to the camera became loose. I don't like over-tightening screws and, as a result, I hadn't applied enough pressure when fastening it. The loosening became obvious well before the camera would have actually fallen off. The immediate symptoms were a difficulty attaching and removing the camera from the Capture. The screw needs a (provided) hex key to tighten. I hadn't brought one with me but managed to tighten the screw and then twist the base plate to tighten it further. It stayed tightly fastened for several hours after that; more than long enough to complete my walk.I've now properly tightened the screw holding the base plate in place. Except for the first loosening of the baseplate, I've always felt completely confident in the ability of the Capture to hold my camera securely in place. The release button can be easily twisted to lock the camera into the Capture so that the button needs twisting and then pressing to release. I've never seen it unlock without me doing it.The gap between the bolts that attach the capture to a rucksack isn't massive. It fastens to all the rucksacks I use it with, but with one of them the shoulder strap needs squeezing for the bolts to fit around. I'd check that the strap you want to fasten it to will fit between the bolts.In use it's brilliant. I slip my hand through the cuff, grab the grip of the camera, then press the Capture release with my thumb and I'm good to go. Returning the camera to the Capture there's a very reassuring clunk and I know it's locked in place. It really is that easy. I am using a relatively small Sony mirrorless camera, and couldn't be sure that the single handed operation would be as straightforward with a chunky DSLR, but for me it's great.Like I said at the start, not quite perfect but close enough for the full 5 stars.

Bought this clip to help encourage me to use my DSLR camera more often.I have had a DSLR camera for years and have always been put off using it with my strap whilst out walking or climbing as it knocks around and I find myself cradling the camera in my hands, making the strap redundant.I saw someone wearing their camera on a backpack strap and asked them about it, they showed me theirs which was a first generation clip and talked me through the pros and the cons.I couldn’t find one in the local camera specialists as they were always sold out and found the case to be the same on Amazon for quite some time.I was eventually able to get hold of one through Amazon when they came back into stock and took it away with me to the Lake District twice in the last few months.I’m really pleased with the clip, it is very sturdy and made of a strong metal construction. I have managed to keep my camera on hand whilst climbing and walking and taken some great pictures which I might have otherwise missed had I had to get my camera out of my rucksack.The only real drawback is that with the mount fitted you can’t use a tripod, however I never take a tripod away with me so this is not a problem.I do still use my strap for extra peace of mind alongside the clip, purely from my own paranoia about dropping the camera and causing damage.The more I have used the camera on the mount and clip it has actually increased my confidence in it.I’m very happy with my purchase and would recommend this option to anyone thinking of buying one.
