Great, but wish it had a spot for the Capture Clip

So far, this has been a fantastic bag for anytime I'm heading somewhere that isn't work. It has ample space for anything you'd need for a hike or long bike ride, or just to head across town for the day.
The only downside I've found—and I kind of expected this to NOT be the case because it's a Peak Design product—is that unlike other Peak Design products, there isn't a great spot for the Capture Clip. At the end of the day, it's not terrible to use a Pro Pad on the bag strap, but I would've loved a dedicated slot (or two) like you get on many of their other bags.
The 7L is a versatile sling that I use as a hip bag. Unlike my PD 6L sling, this is functional as a hip bag that can squeeze small, such as in a museum, or large, to stuff a light coat plus assorted gear. As a camera-centric bag, my PD 6L sling is better because it is structured to fit and hold my mirrorless plus 2 lenses. I can get only my Z5 and 24-200 in this 7L bag, with or without the XS camera cube. This 7L, however, is ideal for travel because it collapses and expands so easily. The backside cellphone pocket and smaller ones inside (SD cards, etc.) set this bag apart from competitors'. And it has enough strength to carry the weight of my camera + lens on the hip. In summary, the 6L is the perfect shoulder-sling camera bag when structure is important while the 7L is perfect as a hip bag when versatility is needed. Different bags for different purposes.
Got this on Kickstarter. More than an outdoor sling, I wanted something simple to carry around my phone, wallet, notebook and other small trinkets on a daily basis on small walks and commutes.
This 2L sling does that perfectly. The backpocket fits my iPhone 13 Pro Max with a case and PD's mobile tripod, and the main compartment unit fits everything else I need. Key tether inside one of the compartments is amazing. The design is minimal and super sleek, I love it. And the shoulder strap is comfortable. I forget it's' there.
This bag is small. Do take that into consideration. Beyond the things I listed, you won'f fit much else. So if you have to carry a water bottle, an extra sweater or your lunch, this won't cut it. But if all you need is a very stylish sling to carry the essentials with extra comfort and amazing features, you can't go wrong with this sling.
The best sling I’ve ever had (and I've had many of them). Roomy. Cleverly planned (finally lots of pockets!). Made from prima materials. Incredibly comfortable - you wear it as if it were a part of your body. And beautiful.
I bought the sling a few weeks ago and I’m super impressed. Material is light but durable the zippers are of a high-quality and especially The padded strap makes wearing the sling over the shoulder extra comfortable
Very pleased with this 7L sling purchased via Kickstarter - much lighter/less rigid than other slings, decent internal storage & fits PD x-Small camera cube when I need it. Pleased with Eclipse colour too.
