1. Peak Design Capture
Unlike a camera strap, Capture keeps your camera rigidly stable while hiking, biking, or moving around the studio. Unlike a camera bag, Capture keeps your camera instantly accessible with the click of a button. Includes 2 components: a metal clip that clamps to any backpack strap, belt, or bag, and an Arca tripod-compatible plate that screws into the bottom of your camera. Your camera locks into the clip, where it is held rigidly and securely. Press the lockable quick-release button to remove. Holds well over 200 lbs. (90kg), making it strong enough for the heaviest of pro camera/lens combinations. V3 updates: Way smaller, way lighter, all-metal build, ultra-smooth machined/anodized finish, hella comfy ergonomic design.

2. Peak Design Cuff
The brand new Cuff is the most elegant and discreet way to protect your camera from accidental drops. With our unique Anchor Link system, it can be quickly and securely attached to any camera, binoculars, or other device.

3. Peak Design Slide
The Slide can be worn as a sling, neck, or shoulder strap. The internally padded nylon fabric features a smooth side that glides over clothing in sling mode and a grippy side that prevents slipping in shoulder mode. Dual quick adjusters provide instant access and easy reconfiguration. The unique Anchor Link system connects quickly, and dual connection points keep your camera more stable than traditional sling straps. Additionally, anchors can now be used with any tripod plate or third-party L-bracket, as well as with any Peak Design plate. New silicone grip, improved webbing, under-strap and hardware transitions, and wrinkle-free internal padding. Anchor connections have been updated to be smaller, faster, and more secure.
