Pretty cool. I would use this myself.

Have something similar, not that great because of the weight of a dslr. Maybe better for mounting on other places besides the belt.

Looks good for the average consumer with a small DSLR, but the parts look too wimpy to withstand professional use.

I have the SpiderPro belt system and I can easily carry a 1DmkIV with a 70-200mm f2.8L IS attached with lens pouches for about 3 lenses.

i can see someone trying to clip the camera on and misses, camera goes straight to the floor.

Looks perfect for hikers!

Right now what I do when I go hiking is wear the camera like a shouder bag.. to keep the camera away from my arms.

Wearing it just around the neck is difficult and hurts after a while..

I bought one of these suckers: http://www.blackrapid.com/product/camera-strap/rs-7/

I'd trust that way more over a little "belt clip" as Senna mentioned...

^ that looks cool, but it looks like the camera will be all dangly and swinging around when not in use? Also, unless you need the extreme 'speed', why not just wear the regular camera strap like that? Works good enough for most cases.

The clip itself is not weak at all.. it all depends on what you are attaching it too. The clip would work perfect on a backpack or a tight leather belt.

^ I usually don't use straps on my camera because I hate having it hang on my neck. I also dislike having it hang on my shoulder as it slips a lot.

It actually works quite well.

Will it work good for hiking do you think? I'm debating between the clip and the RC strap.

No clue....I hate hiking. :p

We've sold a bunch to people who bought it for going hiking though.

damn.. that rs7 strap is quite pricey. Just under 100 bucks.

Also, that clip thing is not for sale yet. It is under pledge lol.

lol my friend has something similar to this.. he hates wearing it on his belt cause the weight of the camera+lens pulls his pants down :lol

a camera hanging off your pants is plain stupid. i like the dual strap from BlackRapid though, which i may need very soon. :D

Supported and 'bought' one bc I like the concept. Should be a good strap when I go hiking, I can just tag it onto my backpack.

Yeah. I'm also looking to get a black rapide for my camera. I like the idea.

I rather use the old fashion neck strap.

I seriously doubt this thing will support the weight of my 1D.

it will if you clip it to something rigid, like a backpack. It's probably not suited for a 1D however.

i really like the idea of clipping it to a backpack strap. I go hiking quite a bit and it is always a hassle to take out my camera from the backpack.

I'm more interested in a durability test rather than a strength test.

I was going to say, someone or something can knock the camera out of your hand while that thing is off the holster. Even worse is if you kill someone with your falling camera.

Part = $20. Liability = jail.

i emailed them and he said sure, c'mon over to the warehouse. it's in North Van(Welch St.) too, less than 10 minutes from my house.

what? I dont understand. Are you saying that the "capture" device is for sale already?
Where did you get it?

well, discovered that if i have to remove my tripod plate to use these systems, i consider it a fail. i even noticed in that Cotton Carrier vid that he's got a tripod slung over his shoulder. i'd like to see him use it.

just ordered one of those clippy clips. hope it arrives in time before my paris trip in mid-september. i'd still wear a strap around my neck with the clip hanging off my backpack. just in case.

I have both the Capture Camera Clip and the Black Rapid RS5.

Capture = Hiking, active stuff, because of the rigid attachment.

Black Rapid = Street Shooting King, because of the speed. However, it is not rigid, and you can easily bang your camera aruond if you're not careful.

I've had this for a while and I just haven't really been using it. I go out on hikes but I leave the gear behind. It doesn't work for my type of style.

If anyone's interested, $50 and it's yours

Just bought a Black Rapid. To be quite honest, you can just wear a regular camera strap like this (not around your neck but like a messenger bag) and it isn't too much different.

...and apart from the little tripod thread part, you can easily build your own for like $10.
