- Capture V3: Tips & Instructions
Marrying stability and quick access, the black Capture Camera Clip v3 from Peak Design is a harness system for professional gear that is designed to withstand forces up to 200 lb. The main component is a durable metal clip, which uses included thumbscrews or hex-head bolts to clamp onto any strap or belt as wide as 2.5" and as thick as 0.87". Paired with it is an Arca-type compatible quick release plate that slides onto the clip to lock movement in all four directions, and features four loops for attaching optional Peak Design anchors.
The Capture v3 keeps a slim profile at only 3.3" in length and weighing 3 oz, and all its parts are made of weatherproof aluminum that resists rust. The clip is equipped with a quick release button so you can instantly grab your camera and start shooting, and has a security lock that can be activated to prevent accidental release during longer trips. For enhanced stability, an anti-slip pad is used on the back plate for grip. All legacy Peak Design plates work with the Capture v3 except for the DUALplate v1, allowing you to carry objects such as lenses, binoculars, or GoPro cameras with optional accessories.

Even better than the amazing v2
I've used a CapturePro (v2, I think) since 2015.� It was always on the strap of whichever backpack I was using and probably has several thousand insertion cycles.� Most of the time it has been carrying a D610 w/24-120 f4.� It still works great, but I was tempted by the new version.� So far, it seems the camera slides in somewhat more easily with the new design and it definitely feels better on my shoulder - I used the Pro-pad under the backpack strap with the wide v2, with this one I've been using just it, no pad.� I also like the switch to allen bolts, much nicer for clamping it to a strap than the old thumbscrews.

excellent
Carrying on a strap I ended up keeping one hand on a camera anyhow to keep it from bouncing when I move around. I've only been using a Peak Design Capture for a couple of weeks, but I love it. I keep this on my belt, and love that my camera isn't bouncing around. The lock prevents the camera from accidentally getting out, but disengaging is simple once you work out the motion.
I chose this over some of the competitors that mount a ball to the camera, because after trying a few in the store the ball links still let the camera bounce around more than I wanted.
The build quality seems great, the finish is excellent.

Please put my earlier 1 star review on hold
I have asked B&H staff to remove my 1 star review but they have not done so yet. Why have I done that? While the problems I experienced are real, Peak Design is being very cooperative in trying to resolve the issues and believes I may have a defective unit. In today's world, having a company that stands by its products and tries to address concerns is such a rarity that I'll take them at their word and hope that everything works out for the best.

Some negatives versus V1 and V2
Have the V1 and V2 versions of this.� Having the camera easily accessible when hiking is great.� However, the spring fell out of the V1, so I bought the V3 clip only� (B&H�#�PECCBK3 MFR�#�CC-BK-3), but I'm putting the review here since I think more people will see it.
+ doesn't stick out past the width of the pack strap, so less digging into your chest when the strap twists
+ looks like less likely to allow the spring to fall out
- with my V1 and V2 clips, I could easily mate the camera plate into the clip without looking.� I'm finding it harder with the V3.� If you look down at the cavity from above, the V1 and V2 have slopes about 5mm wide at the back and sides.� The V3's slopes are much smaller.
- to access the camera, I grab the grip with my right hand and reach over the clip with my left hand to push the button.� On the V1, the end of the button is angled.� On the V2, the end of the button is not angled, but the button sticks out at an angle. So in both cases the end of the button is angled from vertical and it hits the end segment of my index finger comfortably.� On the V3, the button sticks out horizontally and its end is not angled, so my finger hits the sharp "corner" of the button.� After a recent hike, my finger was sore.� Probably I'll eventually learn to reach farther and curve my finger more so that it pushes flat on the button.� Still, I find it strange that PeakDesign was obviously aware that an angled button end is more comfortable, but gave it up on the V3

Strong performance
I just climbed to the top of Mount Baker (10781 ft) in WA State. I brought my Canon EOS1DX plus 24-70mm lens. I attached the Peak Design Capture Clip V3 onto the front right strap my backpack. I used a wrench to squeeze the padding down to be able to screw both plates and sandwich the strap. Despite the weight of the camera and climbing the Roman Wall with 40% degrees incline, it always felt safely secured. Access was easy and the camera would slide in and out rapidly. The quality of this product seems excellent after a brutal mountaineering test.

Sleeker, lighter, slower?
They are an improvement over the original, being made of a far lighter, but equally solid metal, and committing the screw that allowed one to adjust the clamping force (which was really more a problem than useful, as it would get turned accidentally, and make it difficult to either insert the camera, or remove it, depending on when the accidental tightening happened). And the choice of silver colour makes it a nice match with the almost equally coloured fabric of my Peak Design Messenger bag.
However, the omission of the tightening key, and only giving us a bolt that requires a hex wrench to fasten the slide to the camera is a step backwards, as now you have to make sure you keep the hex wrench handy. This is especially a problem with one of my cameras, which has to have the slide removed in order to access the battery door.
It is possible to "canibalize" the tripod socket screw from the ol slide, and insert it into the new, so that's a "fix", but shouldn't have to be needed.

Pricey But Quality, Great For Belt, Weird For Backpack
It's a bit expensive for what it is but it's built with quality. For the backpack usage, it could have been wider. It's not wide enough and scrunches up my backpack straps quite a bit and I have to force it down, which damages my straps badly after a day of use; this is the same issue on all of my backpacks (Mountainsmith, Lowepro Flipside Trek, Boundary Prima, and Maxpedition Falcon II). It also is a bit wobbly with my Canon 6D and 35mm f1.4L, and would probably be better with a smaller mirrorless. However for usage on a belt, it's quite good with my Canon. The wobbly issue isn't present when used on your waist and the width fits all of my standard belts nicely without requiring any force to lock down like it does with backpack straps.
The only thing about using it on your waist is that it digs into your hip when you have to bend down or get on a knee for a shot, or if ya need to sit down on a bench or rock.
Overall, pricey but functional, could be better designed ergonomically, top/solid quality material and build.

Great Clip!
I just finished a hiking trip to Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon, and Zion. I checked out this clip online before my trip and wondered if it would work out. I had it on my left strap of my Osprey pack just below my collarbone and it was awesome! Easy to release and put back in the clip. Also hiked the narrows of Zion in the river and got great shots. I use a Panasonic Lumix FZ1000. Happy with my purchase and will be using it on my future travels
