There was a thread a while ago about them. link
I thought about them as I say in that thread, but someone advised against them at the time as they wre vry new. Now they are more established and more people use them. I am still happy with my choice thugh as I tend not to lug a bag too often nowadays.

Hi.
I have one of these and it is very good when I can. I use the Peak Design two-part wrist strap with it so it is always attached to me somehow.
The only problem I have is that it isn't deep enough (screw length) to fit the rucksacks that I use regularly. I suppose I could look for some longer screws or ask Peak Design if they could offer some longer ones. The screws have wide tops with knurled edges to enable them to be tightened by hand.
If you get a chance, try one out on the bags / straps you are likely to be using.

I have used one of these successfully, both on a belt and on a rucksack strap (Lowepro) . The suppliers are listed on Peak Design's website. Mine came from Morris Photo in Chipping Norton.

Thanks Gwyn.
As aprt of my recent 3LT draw I got a Peak Design Slide Summit Edition Tallac which seems to be an excellent multifunction strap

Has not Morris Photo ceased trading?I have used one of these successfully, both on a belt and on a rucksack strap (Lowepro) . The suppliers are listed on Peak Design's website. Mine came from Morris Photo in Chipping Norton.
(I knew Tony Morris and his older brother, who later bought some of my Mum's land to build a house next door to hers, when I was at school, so I kinda followed the family, at school and afterwards)
OTOH, there are probably other suppliers.
K-3 II, K-3 and a K-70 from SRS (having now relegated the K-30 /"K-50" to a backup body), & some Sigma and Pentax lenses (and a lot of old 35mm gear!)

"Has not Morris Photo ceased trading?"
I wasn't aware that it had, but it seems they ceased trading in June 2014 - I must have had my Capture Clip for longer than I remembered!

I've just found that PeakDesign actually offer a set of longer screws.

anyone tried these? https://www.camforpro.com/peak-design-capture-clip-v2/?gclid=CjwKEAiA58a1BRDw6Ja...
i am tempted as it looks like a good way to carry the camera without having the long strap, and without having to put it back in the bag each time.
thx
