Hands On: Peak Design’s NEW Capture Clip V3

Save 25% On Peak Design's New Outdoor Line

Peak Design has just launched new camera backpacks and slings for outdoor photographers. The Outdoor Line Kickstarter project has already been funded, and the bags will ship in January. If you back the Outdoor Line Kickstarter now, you'll save 25% on the eventual retail prices.

This new Capture Clip V3 was launched in a 5-day Kickstarter campaign that raised an incredible $1.4million. I’m was lucky to have been given the opportunity to to test a pre-production Capture Clip , so I’m bringing you guys a first hands-on look and comparison to the old version.

Kickstarter orders were quickly delivered, and you can now buy the Capture V3 direct from Peak Design. You’ll even get a free gift when you use the links on this page – see note at the bottom of this post.

The new Capture Clip V3 has a large number of improvements, but the most obvious thing is the 30% reduction in size and weight. It’s thinner, not quite as wide and also comes with a new camera plate that is considerably thinner too. The photos really do the talking, it’s a huge improvement!!

The new Capture Clip also comes with a newer and much nicer protective bag.
The overall design is much sleeker!
Old on the top, new on the bottom
Here you can see the decreased size quite clearly, including the camera plates.
The new Capture Clip comes with a new version of the camera plate. Old on the left, new on the right.
The new version (bottom) features a rubber back plate to prevent the clip slipping down the shoulder strap of your bag.
Here’s the new Capture Clip on the new Everyday Sling 5L bag which I reviewed this week.
