If you've ever owned a Peak Design Capture Clip, you're going to want this to replace the v1 or v2 version you currently own. if you don't, once you've figured out its purpose and have seen the photos, you'll want this on your bag.

Maybe you like the extra weight a DSLR or large mirrorless camera around your neck and how it makes you look like a tourist. Maybe you prefer to sling it over your shoulder so you can worry about every doorframe you might crash it into upon walking through one. If neither sounds like you, this is one of the best ways to carry your camera. Attach the clip to your backpack or messenger bag strap, the ARCA-style adapter plate to your camera's tripod receptacle, and boom... you can now easily carry your camera in a far better position on your person. Hell, you can even attach it to your belt and look like a wild west Ansel Adams.

While the previous versions are perfectly serviceable, this latest version looks like the designers took Jony Ive 101 at Bay Area Community College. Clean lines with no sharp edges, uniform color and a more reliably grippy back plate and a monochrome palette in two colors: black (aka gray) and white (aka silver). The lower profile thumbscrews take a slight step backward in functionality compared to previous versions but they include high tension hex head screws for a more permanent install, should you choose that route. Also included is a decal, hex key and a nicely constructed, drawstring carry bag.

This is what they "Kickstarted" a month ago for a week so they could be produced and shipped before xmas. Now that we're past the holiday, they are up for sale to the general public.

The Capture Clip v3 continues the run of excellent redesigns Peak Design has been doing this year, following the equally excellent Leash v2, Cuff v2, Slide Lite v2 and Slide v2 all featuring smart changes, efficient design and tasteful color options. Even the ARCA-style adapter plate (sold separately or as a combo package) has been changed, with a lower profile and stronger construction. And just in case you're unsure, all of the previous PD adapter plates work with version 3, no exceptions.

Buy it now. You know you need it.
