Peak Design CL-3 Overview

From Manufacturer

The Peak Design CL-3 Clutch Camera Hand Strap quickly connects to and disconnects from your camera with a dyneema anchor and a tension clip. The strap wraps around your hand and can be easily adjusted with your non-shooting hand for making it tighter when you are walking. Or loosen it when you need better access to your controls while shooting.

An included Arca-type compatible quick release plate attaches to your camera tripod mount, and one of the included anchors can be tied into the plate. Simply slide the Anchor into the Link to attach the strap, and slide it out to detach it. To attach the top of the strap to the top of your camera, a custom-designed tension clip acts as a small carabiner. The strap can be adjusted from 7.1 to 11.4".

Peak Design CL-3 Reviews

Not for the Nikon Zf

By Akers
Rated 2 out of 5
Date: 2026-08-22

Like many other reviewers, I love Peak Design products and have a bunch of them. This one, however, is getting returned. The build quality and design is typical Peak. The problem is that this strap concept is not universal for all cameras. While I didn't have the problem accessing the battery like others did, the strap restricts the hand such that you can't reach the controls. For my Zf, I would have to push the shutter button with my thumb. That was a 'no' for me so I didn't even turn my camera on to see how reaching the other controls would be. I may just consider getting a Peak wrist lanyard instead to protect from drops and snatchers.

Comfortable and light clutch grip

I have tried other grips for my OM3 but this hits the spot. The OM3 lacks a hand grip on the front so on long walks with the camera it is good to have this clutch grip. Others were too bulky and heavy. This is low profile, light and comfortable. Recoomend.

does this work for sony a7c?
Asked by: Anthony
This will work on an a7c camera. As long as you have an anchor point on the side of the camera to attach the Peak anchor plus the included low profile plate on the bottom of the camera via a 1/4x20 hex screw you will be good to go.
