Default Neat gadget I stubbled across

Peak Design - Home of the Capture Camera Clip System

I really like the idea of this. I'll probably buy one someday. No point in it now though.

Looks great. The screw-in piece that goes into the tripod mount and the clamp that is secured to the body, look great, but the connection between the camera and the clip worries me a little. It looks like it could slip out.

It's an interesting concept, but I just feel like there could be too much to go wrong. I could miss the clip, get bumped in transition, dunno.

I guess I'd have to try it out to judge for real.

That's kinda my feeling on it too. I think it's a great idea, I just don't know how practical it is. The entire time I was watching the video on the site, I kept wondering how many times he dropped the camera before he was able to get it in right every time lol

Interesting concept. If it works as well as it claims, that would be awesome. But I am skeptical too. I want to see it in person, in action.

I kind of like the concept,but my concern is that when you have it unclipped there is nothing to stop you from dropping it.
