Cool plate for everyday using
on October 31, 2025
Posted by: Petr

Small plate, but so practical for everyday using with my tripod or capture. Little -, you can't change the position of plate.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Confusing how to open the tab
on October 29, 2025
Posted by: rick
Couldn't figure out how to pop up the thumb screw tab. Unit comes with no instructions. Finally by accident realized it is designed to push in on the side of the tab that has the depressed mark, then pops right open. Afterward realized the outside of the box has a picture attempting to show this, but it's not obvious, and no instructions included. Once I figured it out, now it seems a great device, but would have been much clearer had there been some instructions.
Also, maybe a bit too picky, but the packaging is very impressive, like Apple computer products. But I could not figure out how to open the package without destroying the package, in the case that I would have to return it. The same packaging issue I had with the camera clip, seemed impossible to open without destroying the package.

Way better than the original quick release plate. It was anooying to carry around hex tools and loose them, and this fixes that issue

Huge Fan.

So far so good. Just got it out of the box and put it on my camera. First thing I saw was on the box where there are 3 red checkmarks on the packaging and the red X for this doesn't work with the previous capture clips. The red in my mind transfers the same NOPE to the checkmarks that are saying it is good for all camera. Suggest you change the color to green for the checkmarks too.

Twist-on, twist-off field plate
on November 5, 2025

The field plate is cleverly designed and beautifully machined to enable ready attachment and removal of the mount for a tripod. It is somewhat dear, but simplifies and expedites the use of a tripod. A split disk on the bottom folds upwards when pressed to enable a two-finger twist of the screw. It avoids having your camera rocking on its baseplate every time you put it down on a flat surface (instead of carrying an allen wrench around).
I would recommend this to a friend!

An innovation that makes my life easier!

What a great idea, I don’t have to carry around a separate tool to remove my tripod mount, it’s built right in, easy to use and sturdy without adding more weight.

Now I can use a tool I always have: my hands!
on November 19, 2025

This solves a problem I often have: a Peak Design field plate actually blocks access to my batter door on my camera.
So, to change batteries in the field or to tighten up my field plate if it loosed up, I'd have to have a Hex Key.
Now, I can just use the best tool that I always have around: my hands!
