" ...  I plan on upgrading to two cameras so I will use them both, one camera on my pack and one on my belt.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Works great for holding the camera on any of my backpacks.  ...  "

" ...  But once in place, it holds onto my camera rock solid and was far more comfortable to carry than I've been doing with a backpack and sling strap.  ...  "

" ...  I bought this because it keeps the camera handy and works with my tripod. ... I am shooting an Olympus EPL7 mirrorless camera and mirrorless cameras use more battery. ... I did add a leash to mine in case I fumble the camera when taking pictures.  ...  "

comment
" ...  My camera means a lot to me.  ...  "
comment
" ...  At first I had problems getting the camera smoothly into and out of the clip, but with a little practice, I was able to get the hang of it pretty quickly. ... it lets me install the camera on my tripod without having to fiddle with changing out the plate on the bottom of the camera.  ...  "
comment
" ...  I feel every photographer should have one.  ...  "
comment
" ...  When it works the system is great and carries your camera well. ... I have not tried it yet with a small Hero Cameras yet or with a small digital camera.  ...  "

" ...  My first trip with this was to the Grand Canyon including a hike to Platue Point and it worked great, kept the camera handy when I wanted it and out of the way, tight and secure when I didn't want it.  ...  "

comment
" ...  I saw this on a hiker at the beginning of my summer hiking season. ... I went to Europe for 2 weeks and was able to attach my camera to my satchels and backpacks at will. ... Everyone on the trip was impressed with how quickly the camera was deployed and then stowed again.  ...  "

" ...  This gives me more assurance that it won't break and then cause damage to my mirrorless system and lens.  ...  "
comment
" ...  By rotating the rig 90 degrees so the lens points towards my naval, the lens prevents this issue.  ...  "

" ...  Searching for a convenient way to carry my 2-lb+ DSLR with zoom lens when hiking, I decided to give the Capture Clip a try.  ...  "
comment
" ...  I use it both to carry my DSLR on my belt, and to easily snap my DSLR on and off of my tripod. ... I have hiked some serious terrain with it on my belt and my DSLR attached.  ...  "

" ...  Works brilliant on backpack strap for me, bought the lens kit as an extra.  ...  "
comment
" ...  It's nice to have my camera strapped to my backpack strap or my belt instead of having it bang around like it did with my old strap.  ...  "

comment
" ...  As it is, Peak Designs' safety catch is better IMO, but it should still be backwards compatible with industry standards and I had to jerry-rig stoppers on either side of my arca clamp on my travel tripod to use this plate without risking a camera falling off  ...  "

" ...  A few hours of wearing it and I can honestly say I forgot it was there.  ...  "
comment
" ...  The unit itself is high quality, I trust it with the weight of my camera as if I was holding it myself - comfortable with it on step climbs.  ...  "
comment
" ...  A much more ergonomic solution than the tradition sling or strap.  ...  "
comment
" ...  On the backpack strap, it is most comfortable to carry the camera this way when I also clip the chest strap, pulling the camera away from my arm a bit. ... It can be a little tricky to get this tight enough that it doesn't slip down the strap, but it certainly is stable and holds my digital SLR securely in place.  ...  "
comment
" ...  I configured the system so that it was positioned not parallel to my pack strap, but parallel to the ground, and have never run into some of the snag issues that I've read in other reviews.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Easy to use, absolutely safe for your canera, no risk of fall out unless you do something wrong.  ...  "
comment
" ...  those big cameras can and DO put a strain on your neck, so this was great.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Works well as an alternative to a shoulder strap, better ergonomics, at least for me.  ...  "

comment
" ...  For a mirrorless user like me (Fuji X-t2/ x100F), all I need is this device clamped to my my backpack (if carrying) or my belt (I tried it successfully on the belt itself, but with longer lenses it is probably worth getting the Pro Pad stabilizer as well).  ...  "

comment
" ...  Also, I almost didn't make it through security with this attached to my carry on pack, the security personnel didn't know what it was and it contains metal, so he said it looks like it could "conceal a weapon," which I thought was silly, but could see how it could be mistaken.  ...  "
comment
" ...  The price seems a bit excessive, but I highly recommend the product if you like to take a camera that is too large to pocket with you.  ...  "
