fantastic strap

I just attached my Nikon D850 and It is a fantastic strap. I had another brand but it did not feel or secure the camera well. VERY PLEASED!!

Too small for a Canon R6

On a Canon R6 Mk II the strap has to be adjusted to its loosest point in order to get a portion of my hand around the camera. In the pictures of this strap shown on the web site, the piece that loops through the top right of the camera's lug is much longer than what I have on my strap. While I can use it, it is far from ideal. It is nicely made and a quality product, just missing a key point.

Dependable and Handsaving

I've owned and used on my primary cameras for several years and it's the best of this type I've ever used, having carried heavy cameras and lenses for hours long event work for over 30 years. As I get older and hands tire more quickly, it's even more beneficial.

Not worth a wait at all. Also the price of this item is very overpriced.

Great for sports

I use this with a Canon 5D mark iii & iv. Both with a 70-200 and a 24-70 lens. I shoot sports and this strap is helpful for continuous shooting. However, it is not meant to take all the weight off the camera. This is way better than not having the strap. If you need to stand for long periods of time?I recommend I the slide camera strap. But this hand strap is worth it.

Decent hand strap

I've got 2 of these and use them regularly. If you attach it to the little Peak Design bracket that comes with it, it lays pretty good against your hand. If you want to use it with someone else's bracket or arca plate, it is a little wonky.

I Love This Camera Strap!

I really love this camera strap. It basically lives on my camera. I like that even when using the Capture Clip, it still works as a hand strap. I really like it, but I have two problems: (1) the top of the strap (where it goes through the eyelet) has gotten a little frayed. And (2) having the strap on my camera means that I can't have an anchor in that same eyelet, making it a bit more difficult to use other Peak Design products along with this strap.

Fits what i wanted

I bought this because i often take vertical photos, and i always found myself wrapping the neck strap around my hand. Found out about peak design, their universal clips, and the clutch. this combined with action clip made my camera sessions a lot easier. love the comfortability it provides while being secure enough to where i don't worry for my cameras well being.

Best way to hold your camera save

When I bought the clutch, I didn't even know that I needed this product. I was actually looking for a nice looking strap. It's a bit like the iPhone moment, and I'm definitely not giving it up.

Simply awesome

Had been interested in trying the Clutch for a while but my only hesitation was that it's promoted as an alternative to using a shoulder strap for carry. I do love my Slide strap, especially as I almost always have a long lens mounted on a Canon R7. After reading a few reviews showing both in use I ordered one and couldn't be happier. It really does seem to add security, comfort and most importantly for me, stability while the camera is in hand for shooting. It doesn't add bulk when everything is packed away in my Everyday Backpack 15L Zip and the mounting plate plays nice with the Slide and Arca-type tripod clamp. At least for my purposes the Clutch/Slide combo works perfectly.

So comfortable, So Well Made. Fits All My Cameras!

I've been using these on all my cameras for years. Nothing better on the market after all these years. Currently have one for my Nikon D810, my Sony A7rIV, Sony A7rV, and NOW, I'm ordering one for my my new Hasselblad X2D (my pride and joy!!!) Yes, I tried it with one of my exsisting straps before purchasing another, AND ITS S PRETTY DARN GOOD FIT!

Robust and smart

Never having owned a camera wrist strap (clutch) I thought I'd give one a go having just purchased a new camera. The strap is certainly strong, packaged well and has its own pouch to keep it in. I like the fact it can be worn as a strap as well although I probably won't wear it like that it's always good to have options. I wasn't aware of the companies green credentials so I'm glad I paid that little extra for the strap as not only is it keeping my camera safe it's helping keep an ethical company in business.

Camera feels really secure

Have an old D7000 with battery pack. Don't like the regular neck strap so just carry the camera by the grip in my hand. Added the clutch and camera just feels secure. Can still operate the camera but no likelihood of dropping it. All good.

Non adpaté au Nikon ZF

Produit de bonne qualité. Cependant le Clutch n'est pas adapté au Nikon NF. Le positionnement du déclencheur du ZF fait que le Clutch n'est pas utilisable.

Peace of mind and back hand support

I use it on my Canon EOS R6 Mark II with a Neewer Grip, along with a Peak Design hand strap. I can shoot for hours and not worry about dropping the camera. Plus they're pretty comfortable.

Best DSLR hand-strap

I bought this recently after my other no brand strap fell apart. I bought Peak design because it looked high quality at a great price. This is hands down one of the most premium accessories I have seen in a long time. The build quality is second to none which is increasingly rare, and the company is ticking all the sustainability and ESG boxes. 100% will be buying more Peak Design gear soon.

Love Love Love

I have been struggling with another brand of hand strap for a couple of years. I finally had enough and found the reasonably priced Peak Design product. I already have and love the PD travel tripod, so I decided to try the Clutch. I love the Clutch! It fits my Nikon Z8 perfectly and does what I need it to do. It was super easy to install once I watched the short video, and I won't have to remove it to use the tripod. Another huge deal is that Clutch doesn't block the battery or memory card doors. Clutch is easy to use and feels very secure. I look forward to having a great experience hand-carrying my camera from now on.

This Clutched my Heart!

By BizK

I've spent so much money on similar products to hand hold my camera securely, I should have just taken hundred dollar bills and ripped them up then flushed them down the toilet. So I wasn't prepared to be giddy with happiness when I installed and used Clutch. How much do I love it? I love that it plays nice with my neck strap. I love it so much I bought a second one so it would not be lonely. (And I don't have to take the time switch it out on my 2nd body) Even my cat likes it, and he n...

Comfortable and my camera feels secure. Great quality.

Find the perfect balance of security and accessibility with the Peak Design CL-3 Clutch Camera Hand-Strap, the world's first camera hand strap that boasts both quick-connecting and quick-adjusting features. Designed for photographers who value efficiency and comfort, the Clutch ensures that your camera's controls are always within reach, while providing the option to cinch down for added security when the shot demands it.

Crafted with a rugged Hypalon exterior, similar to the materials used in high-end climbing gear, the Clutch is built to withstand the rigors of professional use. The strap's microfiber pad offers a soft touch against your skin, ensuring that even during extended shoots, you won't experience the discomfort of a sweaty or sticky grip.

The aluminum adjuster hardware is not only ultra-durable but also contributes to the strap's sleek and stylish design. The Clutch has been thoughtfully upgraded from the previous CL-2 model, featuring updated anchors and a standard plate for enhanced compatibility and ease of use.

Device compatibility is broad, with the Clutch working seamlessly with any DSLR or SLR camera, including those with large full-frame bodies and cameras equipped with battery grips. For photographers who frequently switch between handheld shooting and tripod use, the Clutch is also compatible with most ARCA-type tripod heads, making transitions smooth and hassle-free.

Wear the Clutch how you like it, thanks to its quick-adjusting capabilities. A simple pull allows you to loosen the strap for quick access to camera controls, while a cinch down secures your hand against the camera for total security. The quick-connecting feature is facilitated by our Anchor Link connection system, which attaches swiftly and can be used alone or with the Capture Camera Clip for even greater versatility.

The Clutch is not only practical and durable but also boasts a low-profile design that is less obtrusive than other camera hand straps on the market. Its premium build is complemented by thoughtful aesthetics, featuring custom hardware that echoes the quality of high-end climbing equipment.

Strength is a given with the Clutch, which is capable of holding any pro camera/lens/accessory combination with confidence. The newly upgraded Dyneema-corded anchors, each capable of holding well over 90kg (200lbs), offer best-in-class abrasion resistance, ensuring that your gear is secure in even the most demanding situations.

Elevate your photography experience with the Peak Design CL-3 Clutch Camera Hand-Strap, a blend of comfort, versatility, and strength that stands out as a top choice for photographers seeking a reliable and stylish camera support system.
