Most of my photography is done while hiking, and I have tried numerous means of carrying my camera safely and comfortably while keeping it ready for quick use. This is the best option I've yet tried.The placement of the camera up at shoulder height is excellent. The Capture clip mounts tightly to a backpack strap, and the plate that mounts to the camera's tripod socket then clicks firmly into the clip. There is no way the camera is going to come off, unless the screws come out--I prefer the hex-bolt screws that come in the package just so I can feel certain they're tightened down well. The camera is held firmly and does not flop around, and it is comfortable to carry it in this position (I have a relatively light dSLR and most of the time use a light 18-55 kit lens, so you might want to consider the weight if you have a heavier camera and a large, heavy lens). It is easy to get the camera in and out of the mount while walking, and there's a positive "click" so you can't accidentally leave it loose.I find this much, much better than having the camera on a separate strap, both for my comfort and for my ability to keep the camera from getting beaten up. Previously, I've used Black Rapid's backpack strap, but this keeps your camera at your hip, where it just seems a lot more likely that I'll scrape it on a rock while scrambling; it's also necessary to detach their strap to take your backpack off. This is more secure and safer, in my opinion. You could also use it on a belt if you prefer the hip position.My only concern about this product is that the clip is relatively narrow and the screws that hold its two parts together relatively short. It works fine on my day pack, but I had to squeeze the padded strap a little to get the clip to clamp and the screws tightened; if it were a little wider both directions, it would fit better. I am not sure if it's going to work for backpacking--the strap on my backpack is quite a bit wider and thicker--without my having to modify the strap in some way.I would also caution that your camera is kind of exposed out there on your shoulder. Previously, I've found that my jerry-rigged solutions for carrying the camera in this position were superior to having it at hip or waist, but there is some concern about getting it scratched up if you wind up doing some scrambling or just having it out there where dust can blow into it. I've tried to mitigate this by buying one of those tight-fitting silicone body covers for my camera and keeping a retracted rubber lens hood on the lens. A case like one of those old-fashioned SLR cases that screws into the tripod slot and snaps over the lens would be great, but I can't find anything like that (@Peak Design: hint, hint!)

This is the perfect lamp for home office or study area. The different modes of lighting and versatility are exactly what I was looking for to complete my home office, and for the cost, it was so perfect I decided to purchase two!

Great Camera!Couldn't spring for a GoPro for the price, so I went w/this one and so glad I did. I have it mounted on my motorcycle helmet and record my rides. Easy enough to mount and works pretty well. Only wish the remote and the smartphone app worked in tandem. Once the app is open, the remote gets deactivated.

It should have said in the description that this is not the regular refill. This does not come with the black box needed to print the pictures from the camera. Basically I wasted a pack because I opened them without knowing I was missing an additional part. Make sure you buy the original refill pack first and you have the black box otherwise this is useless.

Decent product as usual. I would recommend it to anybody. Transfer your data with USB 3.0 technology. It's really fast.
