I bought the Capture for my Sony A7III with 24-105 f/4 zoom (2.9 lb/1.3 kg together). Clipped to the strap of my backpack, it is by far the most comfortable way to carry that camera/lens combination out of those I've tried. The camera is in sight and within easy reach, securely locked but easily unclipped, and I hardly notice the additional weight on the strap, even after hours of walking.
When I got it, I spent some time getting the position on the backpack strap right and practicing detaching and attaching the camera with one hand. I could then always do it reliably. I detached/attached my camera hundreds of times and never felt I was at risk of dropping it. A strap is still safer, of course, but you can add a safety line if you want.
Build quality is great, which honestly is the minimum at this price point. The edges of the plate, inevitably, are quickly worn down to bare metal by the constant clipping and unclipping, but the coating on the clip's receptacle hasn't worn much so far.
My only major gripe with the system, which is not a fault but an inherent limitation, is that it doesn't work as well with slings and messenger bags. I tried Peak Design's own 10 l sling bag, which has fabric bands at the sides for fitting the clip, but the weight of camera and bag on the single (mediocre) strap is quickly bothersome. Fit aside, the immediacy is just not there anymore; I could not figure a way to unclip the camera safely and reliably with the bag tightly secured to my back (where it's most comfortable) and loosening the bag first adds a bit of time to the proceedings, which quickly adds up if you attach and detach the camera often. Use with messengers is probably best limited to light camera/lens combinations.
Other caveats:
- The clip barely fits my Thule backpack strap in both width and depth. Thickness can be dealt with thanks to the included pair of longer screws but I'm not so sure about width — do your own research carefully.
- The thumbscrews do loosen little by little — I've seen a significant amount after only a few hours of walking around. Make sure they are tight and check on them every once in a while. At least they can be easily retightened without a tool.
- The plate can only be secured with the included hex key, as it has no D ring on the screw, an annoyance common to several Peak Design products. Have the tool with yourself when you're out and about, in case you inadvertently loosen the plate (for example by yawing the camera about).
Even with all these caveats, I do like the Capture. After having it for a while I find it hard to do without, to the point where I carry a backpack with the clip where before I'd have preferred a messenger bag. If it fits your requirements, I recommend you give it a try.

Secure, Safe, and Accessible
This capture clip works great!! It was a little expensive, in my opinion, but I love this! My camera (Canon 6D with a decent size lens) always felt secure on my clip. I had it clipped on an Osprey DayPack and it worked great. It comes with 2 different size screws for different sized straps. Depending on the thickness of the strap, it may bounce around on you a bit, but it is very stable. I loved having it out and ready to use versus having to dig it out of my bag. Hiked with this in Acadia and took it on vacation. I love this and highly recommend Peak Design Capture clip to everyone is you want your camera accessible and secure.
