Great, I’m glad you enjoyed this video! Yes this type of format for the videos works pretty well, concise and straight to the point, in fact I’m working on further videos like this one, for example reviews of photography/travel products, that will come soon!
@LaTeamModo honestly not, but consider that in the last year I reduced the use of it just because I switched to a new camera which is quite heavier, and that makes it not much comfortable to carry in that way. My suggestion is to buy it especially if your camera is not much heavy and if the lower part of the camera shell is not made in plastic (metal can stand better the vertical forces), if you have any question let me know!
There is also the falcam clip from ulanzi if you are interested and if I recall correctly it’s also all metal and has a plate that is also compatible with peak design. The bettle clip looks interesting but I would prefer an all metal piece of gear since plastic ages and eventually breaks. 😃
Yeah you should be right, there's a clip even from Ulanzi. The thing you said about the material is completely important to keep in mind, but at the moment the plastic of the PGYTECH clip is still fine. But, if a person doesn't want to run into any risk, the total-metal clips are better for sure, like the Peak Design's one!
@@simone_bortolotti I actually did some more research and ended up buying the peak design clip and so far it has been good. If it fails at some point, then I'll switch and try the PGY Tech one.
Yes yes the Peak Design clip is good anyway, you’ve done a good choice. To be honest, I wouldn’t worry much about a possible fail of the clip, unless obviously your camera+lens pack is too heavy, and that, throughout the time, can be a problem.
Ciao Simone, spero non sia un problema se ti scrivo in italiano. Ho un amico che mi regalerebbe la capture e volevo chiederti se posso usare la clip di pgytech che c’è con il mantispod per usarla con la capture v3. Grazie
ciao Luca, allora ho controllato un po' e ho visto che la plate del mantispod dovrebbe essere la stessa che viene data col bettle clip di PGYTECH. Quindi la risposta è sì, ho provato ad inserirla ed è compatibile con il capture v3, anche perché segue lo standard arca-swiss. Però tieni conto che non c'è modo di bloccarla, e quindi, tirando la fotocamera verso l'alto, si staccherà dal capture. Secondo me ti conviene comprarti a parte la basetta di Peak Design, almeno hai una piena compatibilità con il capture. Spero di esserti stato utile!
@@simone_bortolotti grazie mille! Allora mentre aspettavo la tua risposta ho trovato il capture in in negozio qui in uk e l’ho preso. Adesso aspetto il mantis 2.0 oggi da amazon e faccio qualche test. Grazie mille per la risposta ti aggiorno!
@LucaDePazzi ah ottimo! Il capture sei riuscito a prenderlo con la plate o è la versione senza? Perché avevo visto che su Amazon, per esempio, lo vendevano anche senza. Fammi sapere come va!
@@simone_bortolotti Eccomi! allora no preso tutto il kit perché l'obiettivo è mettere doppia plate per fotocamera in verticale e orizzontale. Le due plate sono leggermente diverse nel senso che la PD non si aggancia perfettamente al mantispod. Detto questo però ha un sistema di lock che la tiene solidissima. Parto per il giappone domani e userò entrambe. Speriamo bene XD
@LucaDePazzi sì avevo notato che le due plate, nonostante siano entrambe arca-swiss, sono leggermente diverse. Però se il sistema di lock del mantispod ti permette di usarle allora è ottimo dai. Grazie ancora per aver commentato e, se vuoi, iscriviti pure al mio canale. Buon viaggio in Giappone!
It’s not just so much easier for carrying your camera. Using your camera without a strap is so much nicer as far as handling and ergonomics go. In fact it was getting a new backpack, which meant that it was easier to take my shoulder strap off the camera and the improved experience using my camera without a strap,made me seek an alternative way to carry my camera. I ended up with a Nitze clip and I would never go back. I truly recommend taking the strap off your camera and look for an alternative way to carry it without a strap.
Yeah you're completely true, using those type of clips for backpacks can definitely improve the experience of carrying and using the camera! But at the moment to be sincere I paused the use of the PGYTECH clip for two main reasons: firstly I got a backpack with the side pocket to insert the camera, and so I want to test it and see the differences from using a clip. The second reason is that I started bringing my camera with the external video rig, and, considering that I now have a Fuji X-H2 which is a bit heavy, it's not much comfortable to have lots of weight on the front with the clip. Apart from this, the concept of the clip for the backpacks remains extremely useful and great! Thanks for commenting!
@Banhdatrangnho hi! The backpack I was talking about is the Wandrd Prvke 21L with the photography camera cube. I’ve been using this backpack over the last two months and I can already tell you that is a pretty good product. Even though the feelings now are already positive, I would like to test it a bit more throughout the time, so if you are interested in it, maybe you can subscribe at my channel so that you can catch the video when it comes out! And if you have any other questions let me know
An excellent comparison...thank you! I was interested in the PGYTECH Beetle Clip...Until I found out that the bracket is plastic! Sorry, but I couldn't trust it to hold a camera with a long telephoto lens whilie hiking, especially in changing temperatures and humidity. Too bad that the PD clip is smaller.
Thanks for the comment! Yeah, in my case, I completely rely on that plastic part just because I use it with a camera+lens of less than 1.5kg, so that's not a lot. For the PD shoulder pad's width, I've just measured it and that's ~5.5cm (the PGYTECH is ~7cm), and so maybe you can still fit it on your backpack, even though it's a bit bigger, that shouldn't be a problem.
Fai una comparazione sul movimento della placchetta una volta inserita nel supporto e vedi la differenza di oscillazione, sarebbe ancora più completo come paragone.
Sì allora su quell'aspetto non c'è una grandissima differenza. Ho controllato e la piastrina sul Peak Design si muove leggermente, ma è un'oscillazione estremamente minima e comunque rimane sempre fissata, la puoi sbloccare solo cliccando sul tastino a lato. Sul PGYTECH invece la piastrina è praticamente immobile. Comunque ti direi che non è una differenza sostanziale, però grazie per avermelo segnalato!
Confermo di aver letto e visto che questa differenza c'è. O meglio Peak Design fa un fastidioso rumore di vibrazione a causa di quella piccola oscillazione. Non so se lo fa anche il PGY ms se @simone_bortolotti conferma che è fisso probabilmente non fa nessun rumore. Grazie ad entrambi.
@@fabriziocolista possiedo il PD v3 e una versione economica simile alla versione PDv2 e devo dire che quest'ultima è più stabile e meno ballerina! forse oggi l'Ulanzi F38 è la miglio alternativa...
@fabriziocolista sì il Peak Design ovviamente fa un leggero rumore per questa oscillazione, soprattutto quando non c'è il peso della fotocamera attaccata, perché infatti il metallo della plate tocca contro al supporto che metti sullo zaino. Io uso principalmente il PGY, perché, come dico nel video, il Peak Design l'ho testato un po' per la comparison tra i due. Comunque posso confermarti che con il PGY non ho mai notato niente a livello di rumore, perché praticamente l'oscillazione è nulla.
@PierGiorgioZuccaro grazie per avercelo fatto notare. Io ho solo testato il PGY e il Peak però ti garantisco che anche sul PGY la plate è praticamente immobile, oscillazioni quasi pari a zero, quindi credo come sull'Ulanzi.
Yeah they're almost the same. Consider that the pgytech plate fits in the Peak Design Capture V3, but you cannot lock the plate. Instead, the Peak Design plate doesn't fit into the Bettle Clip, just because it's built almost only for its own plate. So you can place the plates on various arca-type accessories, but I'd say you should avoid to switch the plates between the Bettle Clip and the Capture V3. I hope everything was clear, let me know if you have further questions
thanks for asking, so yeah theoretically they’re both arca-Swiss plates, and they should be the same. But, while testing and comparing them, I noticed they aren’t exactly the same, in fact the pgytech release clamp is a bit smaller and so it perfectly fits its own plate, but instead the Peak Design plate goes in it but you need to push it a bit to make it fit. Personally I wouldn’t consider switching the two plates, so if you want to buy the pgytech release clamp use the pgytech plate, and the same for the peak design. And another important point you should definitely consider is the lock system, because pgytech and peak design have different system to lock the plate. So if you want to be completely sure to not have any issue with the lock system, just keep the same brand for the plate and release clamp, because they’re designed to fit and lock perfectly they’re own plate. I hope this can help and sorry for the late reply!
@@simone_bortolotti appreciate the info. Yeah I figured the answer was probably no. I was just wondering cause pgytech makes a plate that can go onto tripod threads and similar products. The compatibility with peak designs clip would have been handy but I guess a regular arca base plate would do
@@simone_bortolottiI came here wondering the same thing (I already have a PD Capture, but now have a second camera and was hoping the much cheaper pgytech plate would work. The locking mechanism difference means that's not worth the risk, unfortunately. So your review and answer here have saved me time and money. Thank you!)
yes yes theoretically it should work, since the arca-swiss standard is the same for both, but trying it I figured out that’s not completely true, it works yeah, but not perfectly and so I go for the same brand between mount and plate. Consider that, for example, apart from the mount you can use both plates perfectly like with tripods of other brands, so the arca-swiss standard is compatible. If you’re interested, feel free to subscribe at my channel!
Learned more from your video than three others I watched. Thank you, keep the concise format for topics like this. Just bought the PGYTECH model.

Thank you! Very glad you enjoyed it, if you have any question just let me know!
Great comparison, direct and clear information. I'll be purchasing the PGYTech on your recommendation.
Sorry for the late reply... yes you are doing a good purchase! Have you already received it?
@@simone_bortolotti I actually did some more research and ended up buying the peak design clip and so far it has been good. If it fails at some point, then I'll switch and try the PGY Tech one.

for a few more dollars, i'd get the pd. the all metal build gives me a peace of mind
Yes yes that's a good point, for sure metal, in most of the cases, is more reliable than plastic, even tough in this case the quality is pretty high!
Ciao Simone, I'm a fellow Italian youtuber that does video in eng! Good video and keep up the good work 💪🏻
