The plate is great to fit various tripods with different plate systems, while keeping PD strap on the camera. A great and universal way to use the gear faster, focusing more on getting pictures rather than micromanaging the hardware.
I use this for my 200-600mm lens and I like that it covers more area than the standard plate. Only downside is that it only enters one direction on the capture clip, but that just takes some repositioning to work.
I've been using the Capture for 2-3 years now. The only thing that bothered me was that the standard plate could not be used in combination with my Manfrotto tripod. I recently bought the Dual Plate and this solved my 'problem'. It fits perfectly!
I purchased two of these, one for my Sony lens and another for my Sony camera body. How fabulous to be able to have my Peak Design tripod in one place and another tripod elsewhere and still be able to use my lenses and camera wherever I go. Definitely recommended.
I needed a way to attach my camera to my Manfrotto tripod while still being able to use my Capture Clip V3. This fitted the bill perfectly!! As beautifully constructed as all the other PD gear. Only limitation to be aware of, it only goes into the Capture Clip 2 ways (rather than the 4 ways for the standard plate) but that’s a small price to pay for the ability to use the Capture Clip. Oh, and it works perfectly with my tripod.
I couldn't find the sling of my old analog Mamiya m645 with their own unique connecting points. So I could use this together with the peak design anchor points with my own modern slings. Which is way cheaper than to get a specific vintage sling.
Manfrotto MT190 XPRO4 Aluminum 4-Section Tripod with MHXPRO-BHQ2 XPRO Ball Head. I was unsure if this would work. It does. It sometimes doesn't lockup completely because of Peak tether. If mindfull of the peak tethers on this plate. It locks in secure. I'm very pleased with this plate. Thanks for making an adaptor for our Monfrotto tripod heads.
