This is my second Capture Clip. I liked my first one so much that I decided to leave it on my backpack and get a second one to use on my Everyday Messenger Bag or Everyday Sling bag. The Capture Clip is very sturdy and secure. It's great to have the camera on the Capture Clip and accessible for the next shot.
I purchased this for hiking and backpacking, to attach to the belt strap on my pack. I wanted to use both the strap on my camera and this clip to take the weight off my shoulders when I wasn't using the camera. Unfortunately it hasn't worked out for me. The first time I went hiking with it, the clip fell off completely(it wasn't attached to the camera at the time). Thankfully the person I was hiking with was behind me and saw it. The second time, I made sure I really tightened it as good as I can, and after several miles I looked down and one of the bolts was gone! So...they don't stay on well apparently. The belt I attached it to wasn't very thick either, just a normal black nylon strap. I made sure both bolts were tight. It's also kind of annoying trying to fumble with it to get the camera off unfortunately. For someone who likes to take a ton of pictures and take the camera on/off a lot, I wouldn't recommend this. I'm down a bolt and barely used it! Maybe if you use it on the chest strap it'd work better? That wasn't what I wanted it for though.
I was going on a trip and after reading and watching reviews, I decided to purchase the clip (I have many other PD products, did not need plates or anything else). The shipment was delayed and I was worried it was not going to make it in time for my trip. Anyway, it came in the day prior to my departure. Anyway, this is an amazing product. I went on long hikes and had my camera readily accessible all the time, while still having both hands free. I captured so many more images, because instead of having to take off my backpack to take the camera out … my camera was ready at all times. I would recommend this product to any photographer, regardless of their experience level.
This clip is great! it is easy to use, very well built, and works fantastic for a variety of purposes. I have used it with my camera and binoculars and it has worked perfectly.
I am actually going to reorder the clip. I watched your videos and it answered some questions and showed me how to install the clip for better access. However, the small bags probably would not hold a camera with a longer lens.
Well made. Great feedback when snapping into place. Has a slight metal sound as your walking around, nothing that I didn’t get used to. I would like concise documentation around the peak design ecosystem. I watched videos the videos lead one to think everything is so magical, and the articles throughout the website contradicts itself and is too vast. But once the items arrived it seems that I need to buy even more into the peak design ecosystem (adapter plates, more standard/dual plates, pro pad)
Versatile, secure quick clip and release system that keeps my gear at the ready. It is also compatible with by current ball head, and quick release, arco based, Black Rapid carry straps. You can add new capture clips to any location and securely carry your gear on your belt, backpack, day bags... The possibilities are limited on;y by my imagination.
Bought the clip to go with my Ellie of L bracket. Did a rim to rim at the Grand Canyon with my Nikon z5 on my should strap the whole time and fit many great pictures due to its accessibility that I otherwise would've missed. Love the capture clip!
