These Accessories Are The BEST Ways To Carry Your Camera! Plus One Hack To Make Them EVEN BETTER!

[@PerryKiblerboy-of-destiny]

the hack is brilliant, Peak Design should mention it.

[@championxxlNL]

Agree tho it would be alot cheaper to just use the pro pad

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

But you can do the hack over a long winter jacket - which I wish I could have done today!! My belt was hidden under many a layer.

[@dunnadidit]

I did it today with my big ol parka!

[@CliffordSchäfersküpper]

Great hack! Peak Design should add this to the next generation!

[@RealCelticGamer]

​@@CliffordSchäfersküpperUntil you miss the slot on the capture clip and your camera hits the floor. There's a reason why Peak Design doesn't promote that hack.

[@shahrose]

This is the first “hack” video I’ve seen where my mind has actually been blown by the usefulness!

[@JasonFounts]

Genius. Also genius with the bungee jump voiceover.

[@dunnadidit]

😜

[@YR-photo-video]

It's been years I use peak design strap and clip and I NEVER thought about this hack! Thanks! 🤘🏻

[@jamc666]

i've used the capture clip during my last trip and more often than not the screws would come lose after a while and its pretty annoying / can be costly. PD should find a way to fix this. The large shoulder/neck strap is very comfortable, i definitely recommend.

[@eddhobday]

Love that hack. Nice to see an actual hack in videos like this. Good job. Thanks for sharing

[@rjkral]

That hack is A+ !!

[@markstpierre]

Fantastic hack! Can't believe I have the Slide and a 2nd Capture, and never thought of this. Brilliant !!

[@dunnadidit]

Glad I could help!

[@davearmbrust2524]

Just received my Peak Design Capture in the mail today. Follow you instructions and PERFECT. I am also able to keep my Peak Design Clutch attached which makes it a win-win for me. Many Thanks.

[@StefanKamer]

Been using this exact setup and equipment for years and I swear by it! Love it so much! Though I will add one thing. Having the anchor on the right side so that you can also use the wrist-strap is amazing.

[@dunnadidit]

Agreed!

[@AlgerieHD]

Do u have a Setup Image maybe? 😮

[@Xanbunny]

Which wrist-strap?

[@meyers3d]

He's probably talking about the Peak Design wrist strap since it also uses the anchor system.@@Xanbunny

[@Xanbunny]

@@meyers3d Ah thank you very much

[@garryw.9600]

I went a bought a capture clip immediately after seeing your hack. Brilliant. It arrived today and I love it. Such a quality of life improvement. Thank you.

[@WILDANDSTORY]

Genius. One of those hacks you think “Why didn’t I think of that”. Taking the Polar Pro feature and hacking it for Peak Design. Thanks for this. 👍

[@dunnadidit]

That’s exactly it! I like the PolarPro one but I feel a bit more secure with the capture clip since it CANT go anywhere. Never had any issue with the PolarPro one but there’s always just a little fear.

[@WILDANDSTORY]

@@dunnadidit That’s what stopped me getting the Polar Pro after I saw a clip of someone camera falling off the clip. This is great though. I already have the peak design kit and this breads new life into how I can use it. 🔥

[@dunnadidit]

It’s really solid if you make sure you’re connecting it properly. The only way I can think of that it wouldn’t work right is if it was user error… BUUUUUTTTTTT… we’ve all been there when we’re in a hurry and we don’t quite “make sure” so I’m always very careful with it lol.

[@ciba20]

and Ulanzi same solution

[@stevecontos3317]

I started watching this and I was like “ok how good is this hack”. Now my reaction is 🤯 I have the wrist strap and love it but thinking of getting the slide lite for my new a7c. I have a black rapid sport strap currently but its really bulky for the a7c.

[@tonyamidei]

Brilliant. I love how you combined the 2 products to make the whole even better…and glad I already have both. Thanks!

[@dunnadidit]

I think a lot of people already had these laying around! And the best part is that it’s super easy to take em apart and use them normally too!

[@alvinlax]

Already had the PD quick release, picked up the slide lite, and took this combo to San Diego for a week. Worked flawlessly. Thanks for such a genius idea, Dunna!

[@dunnadidit]

Niiice!

[@sofikhmara]

My mind was just absolutely blown. This is GENIUS. Buying the capture clip rn!

[@johnnykempo]

Good idea re capture clip, but I wonder whether the clip cords will be compromised by screwing down the capture clip onto them repeatedly..?

[@bhansen316]

The combination use of the strap and clip is brilliant, thanks!

[@jss455]

I’m sure we’ve all seen tons of hacks but this one truly rocks! Love my PD Slide and now with your hack, I think I will love it every more!

[@dunnadidit]

Nice!

[@smrtmvereviews9713]

that strap and capture clip hack is amazing and smart! THANKS!

[@RolandoNispiros]

Glad I watched to the end for the hack. Awesome idea.

[@TheBrandonLeeCook]

BRUH IM MIND BLOWN! I've always wondered what those clip things were I saw other photographers using! Thanks Dunna!

[@dunnadidit]

You're so welcome!

[@JoshZlaket]

OMG THAT HACK IS GENIUS!!!! *Runs to set this up with my own gear immediately* Thanks, Dunna!

[@dunnadidit]

Haha nice! Have fun!

[@shadowshapers]

This is a brilliant and clever way of using those Peak Design products together! Thank you for showing them to us!

[@dunnadidit]

Thanks for watching!

[@Gylfaginning16]

This hack is amazing! Love it!

[@bigshotmedia]

Sold Ive been kicking around all kind of ideas and this is by far the best!!!

[@GSPhotographics]

I am a big fan of peak design products so was very interested in watching this Video.. Attaching the Capture Clip to the strap is nothing short of genius .. why did I not think of it. Superb hack 👏

[@davidbailey1689]

I’ve been using these accessories for some years now, I love that hack of yours. The really clever aspect of the retainers that attach to the camera (or long lens) is the Wear Indication. At the point where the cord retainer folds over itself, at the camera anchor points, there will be abrasion taking place as the camera weight rubs the retainer cords against one another. When the cord begins to wear the sublayer of the cord will be revealed - and it is yellow, so it shows up and warns that cord and retainer unit needs to be swapped out. If that is ignored and wear continues the next sublayer of the cord is red and becomes visible. Time to REALLY get that retainer swapped out. I should add that, after three years of daily usage, I have not experienced any wear whatsoever. A superb pair of products and worth every penny/cent/centime…..

[@Hsukhaybir]

Watched this couple days ago .. liked it so I ordered one and received it today .. it’s fantastic .. loved the build quality makes me comfortable leaving my $$$$ camera / lens hanging like that. Thanks again.

[@artmaltman]

Exceptionally useful video!

[@gadgetz2652]

Just went out and got the clip and strap and I love it. It works even better because the slider that goes on the bottom of your camera can be put into the clip in 4 different directions. It's fantastic.

[@cysix4939]

Been using both the Slide and Capture Clip for sometime, but never thought to combine them. Great tip! Another small tip... add the dongles your camera bag (if you use one) and you can multi-purpose the slide strap... saves a tad of weight and bulk.

[@dalontekeemer6665]

Agreed!!!!

[@swashyhimself]

what does this mean

[@denisbede3251]

Thanks for the trick! Looks fun :)

[@jefferyschilling840]

Just came across this video. This hack is incredible!!!!! Will definitely be using this!

[@MalcolmByrne-tv2cb]

Excellent! Great info, no fluff, and terrific hack that will change my setup significantly. Thanks!

[@JohnFisk-OHS-78]

Seriously. Brilliant! Thanks for sharing. Cheers, mate!

[@dunnadidit]

Cheers!!

[@pauljakeman]

Dunna Did Good! Nice products and great hacks. Thanks man!!!!

[@Pyliip]

Excellent hack, thank you very much for sharing it with us!

[@ottokaji78]

The last one is the idea that i’ve been looking for, thanks!!!

[@dunnadidit]

Nice!

[@sailslikeagirl3154]

Just bought the capture clip to use with the strap after watching your tip. Absolutely love it thanks

[@dunnadidit]

Nice!!

[@AndyPhan]

saw this right before a week in Boston and it was a fantastic carrying method. showed my brother and he immediately bought the quick release plate. big thanks!

[@dunnadidit]

YESSS!! Stoked it worked well for you!

[@buddyWalrus]

Just wanted to leave a comment to say how great of an idea it is to use the strap and the capture clip together. Very useful.

[@davidcoleman2868]

Oh man. You've just revolutionised my use of the slide strap 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😊.

[@mariafdrews]

Brilliant! Great vid, as always!

[@dunnadidit]

Thanks!!

[@WestVillage-vv3hg]

Holy cow! Game changer! I, too, hate those little attachment tags on my camera, but I do want a strap every once in a while.

[@matthewosbornmedia8828]

This is exactly what I needed. Perfect hack as I hate them dangling things on the Sony too.

[@dunnadidit]

YUUUUSSSSS!

[@GrandadsReviews]

Great overview of the Peak Design straps and clip I have been using that hack for years as the original capture clip has cut outs for the attachments to pass through that way they don’t get pinched by the clip when it is tightened it’s a shame they didn’t add those slots to the newer version.

[@csc-photo]

Great tips! Love PD’s system. My favorite strap is actually the Leash, even with my chunky Nikon gear. I attach PD’s included anchor base to the tripod mount, another option. So everything hangs off the bottom, away from my hands. Works with Capture Clip plate too (plate with anchors will still fit in Clip). Need to try your strap / clip combo setup! Super versatile straps 👏🏻

[@JoshJourney]

Brilliant usage of the eyelets with capture clip. This has made getting the slide strap a lot more appealing.

[@chryseass.5143]

Oh wow, I am definitely going to try this! Fun things to do with all my Peak Design accessories!

[@thieuquang]

The second hack is excellent! Thank you for sharing!

[@bertabbel7476]

What an amazing hack. Many thanks

[@NathanTeaches]

Well, that's clever! I haven't bought the Capture because I use a vertical grip on my Canon and feel like the top-heavy weight would tilt the camera forward too much. I could take the grip off, but I love it so much for its handling and easy vertical shots!

[@myname-mz3lo]

the capture clip base is square so it can be put into the capture clip in any orientation

[@stevearita3267]

Great little "hack"! I just bought a Sony 100-400 GM lens, and watching your channel is very helpful.

[@dunnadidit]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@mikesshots8587]

I’ve used the slide mini on my a6100, I ended up returning it the day after, since I’m using the cuff in midnight blue, it’s the best accessory I could’ve bought

[@stevenarthur2550]

MIND BLOWN!!! Will be using this hack. Immediately

[@dunnadidit]

Nice!

[@czokoludek]

Your hack works very well for me. I was looking for this type of recommendation so that I carry my full frame camera more, rather than just relying on my smartphone. Thank you

[@series25a]

does it add more weight or have some sort of con to it?

[@Michael_Robinson]

I love the Peak Design Capture Clip, and I’ve standardized everything on Arca Swiss plates, so I had a quandary when I wanted to add an L-Bracket. I didn’t want the bulk of an L-Bracket and a separate Capture Clip on the bottom. I found the 3 Legged Thing "Ellie PD Capture V3 Compatible Universal L-Bracket”. It has a Peak Design compatible clip machined into the bottom, saving some thickness. The bracket is Arca Swiss compatible in both landscape and portrait orientation. The bracket is “universally adjustable”, but you do want to pick the regular or short version so as not to block your battery door. The regular version works well on my Sony A7III.

[@dunnadidit]

I gotta look into that!

[@bhchriste]

I have the Ellie PD l-bracket. Great quality, only slightly annoyed it's only v3 compatible as I started with V1, then V2 and finally got the V3 as well. The old PD quick release plate works with all three, the Ellie PD only with V3. Apart from that it's a great product.

[@derrickmickle5491]

Fantastic hack! This solves several of my frustrations with the Peak Design anchors.

[@dunnadidit]

Yaaaasss!!

[@vaskoobscura_]

Awesome video. I like that hack i'm going to to have to give it a try. Thumbs up.

[@jonathandorozco]

GENIUS hack bro!🤩👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@Charliedelapaz]

Thanks Dunna! Perfect for our family trip!

[@davidfromdownunder]

Mate that hack is a game changer! Cannot wait to give it a crack out in the field, think I might even purchase a second capture clip to have attached to the Pro Pad on my belt for easy swaping in and out from slide to hip / waist. Absolute GOLD! Better still I am going to try your tip by attaching the capture to the base of my telezoom plate and solely carry my xf100-400 attached to the zooms plate via the capture whilst my XH1 is at my hip housing my smaller xf16-55mm zoom or Prime. Thanks mate you've just given me some really good ideas for easy transporting of my gear via the Capture .

[@suitcasejunkies8719]

Always like your tutorials and reviews, another great one. I sold and love the hack.

[@tomdelisle8955]

Peak Design, well worth the money. Very comfortable and the strap came with two sets of quick release tabs so I can quickly swap out cameras.

[@xFreyelis]

I've just seen the hack, and it's a total game changer. Subs for you!

[@christianjohnson8171]

Brilliant hack, thanks! 5:48 You can still have the right orientation of the camera (lens down) even if the clip is directly attached to your belt since the arca plate is square, it can go in sideways. The Pro Pad might make it more comfortable though, but I've found myself not using it as much recently and just attaching direct.

[@dunnadidit]

Very true!! I guess I was thinking about being able to put the camera in with the help of gravity to keep it in place. But it does work either way!

[@kayyipliu699]

I like the hack, you just improved my life without costing me a penny.

[@isaiasanchez1987]

I use the sling in combination with the side hand strap. Security and comfort, helps me go from casual walk to ready shoot. Hand strap alleviats some fatigue from having to grip my heavy camera and lens. But the locking mechanism has never worked for me. Not on this strap or the bags. No matter what position i have the lever, it still adjusts during use.

[@brucekraft744]

Good video ... thanks! The Slide/Capture Clip hack is excellent!

[@dunnadidit]

Glad it was helpful!

[@stacymaureenmitchell277]

I love my slide lite and capture clip!! Thank you for the hack!!

[@dunnadidit]

Glad you liked it!

[@maggiedormer1208]

Purchased the clip and pro pad for a trip to Scottish Highlands this year and it was fantastic on my belt. Now that it’s getting colder and the heavy coats are being dusted off using it on a belt won’t work. Will be trying the hack with the shoulder strap (I have the Lite version). Thanks for the tip.

[@derbagger22]

Well, I didn't learn much in this video because I have all those Peak accessories. But they are amazing and I endorse them heavily. I don't have issues with the red tabs because I don't shoot video. But if I do, that's a very trick workaround. Thanks!

[@twuuwttwu]

Now this is genius! Definitely solves my problem! Thank you!

[@joedavis9842]

I've been looking at the peak design straps for a long time and just didn't want to buy it without being able to see it, after seeing this video and being able to actually see and feel the strap during my recent NY trip I am so glad I got it.

[@TheMichiganShow]

That was big for me too

[@CoffeeScribe]

I like that capture clip over the first one you showed. What a great product! Such a great hack from such a nice guy.

[@dunnadidit]

Haha thanks!

[@XRayPecs]

Genius hack! Thank you.

[@dunnadidit]

Cheers!

[@SLTYFRG]

Brilliant!! Well done!!

[@BillGillespie1952]

WOW! What a great idea to combine the two. Just solved a problem for me as I often have to wear my backpack to use the Capture Clip. Thanks

[@wojsie]

I'm using PD Slide for 2 months now (and am big fan of!). If you do not want it to intefrere with your hand (in portrait camera position), try to attach anchors to left and bottom sides of your camera. (1:20) PD Slide is great btw (but need to remember that it takes some/more_than_some space in your bag!) Good idea with capture clip and slide. Thanks!

[@francesconavarro2725]

This is a really great tip! It's so obvious once you see it, but not everyone will ever come up with a product synergy like this. Thank you!

[@MauricioCruz67]

Super useful tip, thanks for sharing !,

[@ShuriBear]

That camera hack is GENIUS!

[@ZekesView]

Ok... that hack is amazing. That is pure genius and I will forever use that.... Thanks dude and great video!!!

[@dunnadidit]

Thanks dude!

[@raytbrown2]

Nice idea!

[@MolliOlli182]

Great hack! I’m totally trying it as sometimes I dislike the dangling things..

[@HarrySK8100]

thats a brilliant hack man. cheers

[@dunnadidit]

Glad you liked it!!

[@rogergranquist]

Great hack! I like my capture clip and have used it for a long time, but just recently got the wrist strap with those attachments. I know what strap I need to get next when that need arises. :)

[@dunnadidit]

Nice! Glad you liked it!

[@mograin_]

Dude. Pro move. I might have to do that when I shoot weddings, it sounds perfect! I was planning to buy the slide strap anyway.

[@dunnadidit]

Bam!

[@chandlerchhem2128]

Awesome hack I love it man!

[@dunnadidit]

Thanks!!

[@HenriBrownell]

Very cool, it's something I've been looking for, but I still would want to have a secondary attachment for safety, but getting rid of at least one of the danglies would be fantastic.. particularly on the shutter side.

[@ThatModernDude]

I like the hack at the end! never thought of that

[@dunnadidit]

Bam!

[@thomasotterbein9410]

Many thanks for the tip with the PD Capture Clip. Easy to attach and to remove the camera from the Slide. I never had this idea....🤔 With medium lenses I attach now the camera via the Capture Clip. Heavy lenses are attached to the slide at the tripod collar with the Capture Clip. No PD Anchors in the way anymore. Great tip 👍

[@DemoMonkey]

Epic hack. This just solved so many problems for me. I've been using my Peak Design gear like a moron all this time! Knowing is 1/2 the battle, I guess. Thanks!

[@dunnadidit]

Knowledge is power

[@coraleestedile5061]

Great idea!!!

[@Shunjut]

Just coming back to this vid to say that this is the best way to use the strap. Thank you for suggesting this!!

[@rexgigout1472]

Liked, and subscribed. It is good to see that the Capture Clip has been improved, since the one I examined, which was probably the first version. And, if I adopt the Capture Clip, your hack may well come in handy. Thus far, I have used the Slide on several DSLRs, at least since 2015, when I wore a Nikon D700, with a 24-70/2.8 lens, all days, every day, during a trip that lasted more than a week.

[@tasveerlondon]

Amazing hack and thanks for sharing. Can I ask how much wait can it carry. I have 100-400 gm which make the camera very heavy so wanted to ask if it will be able to carry the weight or not?

[@dunnadidit]

I've definitely had the sigma 100-400 on there... It's not the most comfortable necessarily but that's pretty normal with a camera with the 100-400 on it. The strap itself can hold a lot and the little nubbins are super strong too.

[@chrismarroquin6338]

This was a great video man! Thanks a bunch!!!

[@todddammit4628]

You're a god damn genius. I have multiples of these straps and the capture clip and I never once thought of doing this.
