Peak Design Capture V3 Review

Just before the public launch of the Capture V3 I polled my social media followers to see how many people were using one of the existing models, and I was staggered to see how many people already owned a Capture, or knew exactly what the product was. I knew these were quite popular products, but I hadn’t appreciated how widespread their usage had become – at least amongst the kind of outdoorsy folks that generally tend to follow my work on social channels. For those that haven’t come across the product before, the Capture is a quick-release camera carrying device …

REVIEW: Peak Design Slide and Slide Lite Camera Straps (2017 Update)

The Slide and Slide Lite camera straps has been around for a few years, but these updated versions were launched as part of a highly successful Kickstarter campaign at the end of 2017, along with the launch of the Capture Clip V3. Peak Design Strap Lineup Overview Peak Design’s camera strap lineup consists of three different straps – in ascending order of size: Leash, Slide Lite, and Slide. Whilst the Leash is the smallest strap, this doesn’t mean it’s only for small cameras. In fact I often use a Leash with big pro DSLRs simply because I value the incredibly …

Peak Design Launch New Slide and Slide Lite Camera Straps

NOTE: Since writing this preview post, I have since written a full review of the Slide and Slide Lite straps.

Now it’s time to take a look at the new versions of the Slide and Slide Lite camera straps that are also being launched with this campaign.

REVIEW: Peak Design Pro Pad for Capture Clip (2017 version)

The new version of the Pro Pad updates the design to fit into the current Peak Design aesthetic. It’s a much sleeker looking product, and considerably smaller too. The photos on this page also include comparisons to the older version. As I’ve come to expect from these guys, the product is impeccably made, and the combination of the newer looking Capture Clip and Pro Pad is a smart solution that would be great for wedding photographers that are already dressed up for the occasion. There’s a little less padding on the new Pro Pad, but what padding there is, is …

REVIEW: Peak Design Everyday Sling 5L

Not too long ago I reviewed the Everyday Sling 10L from Peak Design, and now they’ve launched a smaller 5L version. This new, smaller version comes in either all black, or the light grey Ash colour of the 10L one that I tested a couple of months ago. At only $100, this Everyday Sling 5L is hitting their lowest price point yet, and I don’t mind saying that they’re onto a winner here, right off the bat. Over the last few years I’ve used and reviewed the entire Everyday lineup from Peak Design, and in the review of the Sling …

REVIEW: Peak Design Everyday Sling 10L

Peak Design continue to expand their product lineup, and the Everyday Sling 10L was added alongside the previously reviewed Everyday Backpack, and the Tote, during a record-breaking Kickstarter campaign. The styling cues are all the same, but there’s a few differences in functionality that means it’s not quite as simple as saying this is a “mini Everyday Messenger”. I’ll say right away that surprisingly to me, this is actually my favourite of the Everyday series! I know a lot of people love the Everyday Messenger and Backpack, and I did like them, but I also had my criticisms. In several …
