Dual Plate is awesome!

I have this on my camera pretty much all the time, and switching between strap, Capture V3, and my Manfrotto tripod is a breeze~ Hate all the time wasted when switching plate, this thing is simply wonderful~
So happy with this product. Such a relief to have a plate that fits with both my manfrotto tripod (I have the better) and the peak design backpack clip.
I was already interested in getting a Peak Design capture clip, but I was a little sad because I had just purchased a Manfrotto tripod with a pistol-grip quick adjust head. It was a pricey purchase, but I love it, and I couldn't imagine using an Arca Swiss style tripod head after putting all of that money down for the Manfrotto. Enter the Dual Plate: fully compatible with the same capture clip system, but works perfectly in a Manfrotto quick-release mount. This is beautifully designed, from the corner holes to mount PD strap anchors (which I use for both Clutch and Slide straps), to the seamless integration for both tripod and capture clip systems, this is a work of art.
This dual purpose plate is my favorite photographic accessory. I just leave it attached to my camera all the time. As a low-light long exposure photographer I love that I can pull my camera from the clip and put it directly on my tripod without having to change plates. It has made my life so much easier. If you are considering purchasing the plate and clip, I strongly suggest spending the extra money on the dual plate. You will not be sorry, and you will be pleased with how easy it is to attach it to your tripod.
I recently acquired a Nikon Z7. The Manfrotto plate while on the camera body interferes with the FTZ adapter. Love to see a modified version that allows me to have the plate on the camera body while giving me the flexibility to swap lenses that are mounted on the FTZ adapter.
