Highly recommended for the Leica Q3
on December 29, 2023
Posted by: Pete
from Munich
Just got the “I-Plate” version for my new Leica Q3. Despite being listed by the PD team as not being compatible with the Q3, it works fine. Only hitch being that to access the SD card you first have to completely remove the screw. Not an issue. It works beautifully!
It makes handling the camera so much easier compared to the cuff that I was using, and the fact that the tool is integrated along with full compatibility to the rest of the PD eco-system, makes for a perfect companion.

Durable and great fit
on November 13, 2023

Bought this along with the capture clip for my A6000. It fits nice on the camera and is super easy to install. There’s a small piece of the plate that sticks out on the handle, but it isn’t uncomfortable. The adjustable strap took me a few minutes to adjust to fit the way I want to hold it, I use 2 fingers in the strap and I have fairly small hands. I do a lot of hiking and got the capture clip to go with this and the strap didn’t get in the way, it actually made it a bit easier to get a grip and get the camera free from the capture clip.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Nicely designed but with one fatal flaw
on October 27, 2023
Posted by: Centauri27
from Vancouver, Canada
I bought two Micro Clutches during Kickstarter for three cameras: Olympus E-M5 Mk III, Panasonic GX7, and Panasonic GX850. The units fit all three cameras fairly well: on the E-M5, it extended outside the front edge due to the tripod socket not being centred. It even works well on the GX850, which is actually shorter than the clutch base plate length.
These Micro Clutches are well designed and the magnetic tool is a great idea. But here's the one fatal flaw that prevents a 5-star rating: PD decided to use plastic nubs over spacing holes, rather than the traditional velcro. As a result, the plastic nub is always rubbing against my finger and it feels very uncomfortable after a few minutes! Give me velcro any day!

Works great with Fuji X-S10
on October 9, 2023
Posted by: Marc
When I purchased it was listed as compatible with the Fuji X-S10 / X-S20 and now it is not. It does not cut into my hand as mentioned in a review. I do have big hands which may be the reason. I traveled through Rome and London taking over 1000 shots without issue using the Fuji X-S10 and 18-55 f2.8 (heavy setup too)

Great way to carry your mirrorless
on October 2, 2023

I am still undecided if I prefer this one or the cuff. Both provide great ways to carry and handle your mirrorless camera with different approaches and experiences.
In any case, if the Clutch experience is the best for you, I find this to work very well with my Xt2. And my initial concern about extra work when accessing the battery ended up being unfunded. The handling of the Clutch is very fast and practical for that.

Superb design makes shooting more comfortable
on September 20, 2023

from London
I bought this for my new FujiFilm X-T5 and hasten just what I have been looking for to walk around hand-held or with the capture making it easy and secure to take pictures on the move when hiking or just walking around town. It is exactly what I was looking for with the expected quality and design from Peak Design - love it.

Great once you get it attached right

At first i didn’t think that this fit my camera (Sony A7c) very well and made it less comfortable to use. But after watching some of their videos and figuring out how to correctly adjust the sizing of it; I’m really happy with it. It’s especially nice for grabbing my camera and pulling it from my back up into shooting position when I have it slung over my shoulder using the Peak Design sling strap.

Fits Great with Sony A7R3
on September 8, 2023
Posted by: Lord Franco
from Hong Kong
I know this plate doesn't fit right on some of the other cameras, but on the A7R3 this is awesome. Take the time to find the right fit and it really changed the way I secure the camera on my hand. Used it for a couple months now (backed the Kickstarter) and I have to say it is very useful for me.
It is a little bit more challenging to use the side access of my backpack when I have the mounting plate on (that extra height mattered) but nothing you can do on that one I suppose. Battery access is not an issue for me as I don't shoot enough to make it a problem on a trip.
I would recommend this to a friend!
