[QUOTE="Blue439, post: 826798, member: 53455"] I like Peak Design products, even though I sometimes deplore their purely functional, very politically correct approach —how I regret my elk hide should straps from Germany...! As a lot of my photo work happens with the camera on a tripod, the body is almost always equipped with that orange L-shaped bracket that allows me to quickly change from landscape to portrait mode in the Arca-Swiss jaws of the tripod head. That bracket is not compatible with what Peak call a “Capture Clip”, still I do have a number of those Clips lying in wait on my photo bags, and I am happy to use them when the L-bracket is not on the camera and has been replaced by just a minimal Arca-Swiss–type base plate. It secures the camera that slides in with a satisfying click, and I never has a scare with one of those. The Capture Clip: [ATTACH type="full" alt="Capture.jpg"]412852[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="Capture2.jpg"]412853[/ATTACH] I have just bought an extra one today to attach onto the “Pro Pad”, another Peak gizmo that I’ve had for years but never used and which looks like this: [ATTACH type="full" alt="61oYRoJTWBL._AC_SL1024_.jpg"]412854[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="61yrELzixbL._AC_SL1024_.jpg"]412855[/ATTACH] This year we are going to the UK for Christmas and New Year’s, and while I [I]will[/I] be doing some tripod photography there too (they do have some Romanesque churches left!), I suspect I will oftener do handheld, and sometimes (often?) dispense with the photo bag altogether, hence the appositeness of this belt thingy to secure the camera whenever I need both hands to deal with my 2½ year–old granddaughter! :D :love: I will report back on that Pro Pad early next year!
