Excellent design, one missing feature.

I absolutely love PD products. And this clip is great for its intended purpose. Works perfectly with the mobile creator kit. Very secure.
However, there’s one major flaw: The Pro edition of the previous version (Capture Pro) featured a tripod mounting hole for use as a monopod or tripod quick-release clamp. This is the only way to use the Mobile Creator Kit’s ARCA quick release plate, as the plate doesn’t work with non-PD ARCA quick release mounts. And unfortunately PD doesn’t offer a 1/4” tripod mount that works for their quick release plates.
The design of the new model is nice and sleek, but this crucial feature was removed for some reason. I purchased an old (and used) Capture Pro for this reason. (Works well, but isn’t as nice as the version still available.) With this one simple improvement, it would be perfect!
I would recommend this to a friend!

My camera fell out of it

I love the convenience and design of this clip, but unfortunately, my new camera fell out of it—from my shoulder to the ground. The camera survived, but the lens is completely broken and beyond repair. I really wanted to love this clip, but given the price—and now the cost of replacing my lens—I can’t recommend it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Love the clip, however…

I got this as I wanted to make my camera more quickly accessible while I was traveling in South Korean and Taiwan. I love the design of the clip and functionality for accomplishing this.
I travel with and often use a lightweight backpack that has fairly thin shoulder straps (Osprey Daylite Plus). The hardware protrudes quite a bit and I was concerned about it rubbing a whole in my thin merino shirt. Thus didn’t happen but it was a concern I have.

Great but wears quickly, risks dropping camera

I bought this less than a year ago. Since then I’ve been using it with a camera + lens setup that’s about ~2-3% of its rated weight capacity.
I’ve specifically been using it belt mounted with the pro pad.
Regrettably it’s worn very significantly, it’s now much looser, the metal at the bottom is in parts 2/3rds of its original thickness. The metal shavings from the wear also get on your hands every time that you touch the plate on the bottom of your camera.
Peak design has replaced it under warranty but they haven’t mentioned anything about changes to the product or that my specific model may have performed un-expectedly.
I do walk a decent amount (1600km ish since purchasing capture), but I’d expect something with a 90kg rated weight and lifetime warranty to hold up a lot longer than ~9 months.
The other worrying aspect is the thumb screws are very difficult to tighten enough that they won’t work lose, you either need to check them every 20 minutes or so, or add glue to the threads.
The hex head bolts are better, but with the pro pad they stick too far out. I had to cut them shorter.
I think peak design should include an o-ring / some kind of screw retention mechanism as the way capture is designed now you risk dropping your camera if the screws come lose.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Jammed

I purchased this roughly a year ago and used it once. On my second attempt, the release mechanism jammed and doesn't allow the standard mount to slide into the clip.

Absolutely destroyed my Canon r5 mk2
on November 22, 2025

I used to be an enormous fan of peak design. I have used this product for almost 4 years.
I have the camera clip as well as their travel tripod.

Of late this thing has caused my Canon R5 Mark II to crash to the ground twice now, as some very subpar workmanship on my replacement clip has caused the screw to come undone.
Seriously, don't risk it.

The Best Accessory for Photographers.

This item is a total game changer. It was the first Peak Design product I bought almost 5 years ago, and now I can’t live without it.
How many times have you gone on a trip and ended up carrying your camera in your hand the whole time? The Capture Clip lets you go hands-free while securely holding your camera. The best part? In just 1 second, your camera is ready to shoot, so you never miss a moment.
It’s engineered to perfection, and you can feel it in every detail. Peak Design quality at its finest!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Works...but beware of the camera you put it on.
on April 3, 2025
Posted by: jwells
Beware of which camera you use this on. It absolutely destroyed the bottom of my M50, which, unbeknownst to me, couldn't handle the strain of being held and bounced around from the mount. It is simply not robust enough for the clip. I wish there were a warning about cameras this isn't suitable for. I had to glue everything back together to the best of my ability, and now the camera permanently lives in a full cage. Clip went into the camera random bits box.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
