The Transcontinenta Group, Peak Design distributor for Great Britain, Ireland, and the Benelux, introduces the new Peak Design Micro Clutch hand strap for mirrorless camera's.
In 2014, Peak Design reinvented the camera strap with the Slide and Clutch, and used Kickstarter to share them with the world. Both the Peak Design Slide and Clutch offered new and better comfort for DSLR owners. This year, through another Kickstarter campaign, they launched an improved solution for mirrorless camera owners, the Peak Design Micro Clutch.
Peak Design developed the Micro Clutch for two reasons:
“Cameras have mostly got smaller, but hands have mostly stayed the same stupid size. These facts cannot coexist peacefully without some sort of tool to bridge their contradictory nature. That is why we created the Micro Clutch”.
The first of its kind. The Peak Design Micro Clutch is a hand strap designed specifically for small mirrorless camera bodies. The Micro Clutch is perfect for any activity where drop protection and comfort are essential, whether it's run-and-gun street photography, active outdoor shooting or an extended portrait session in the studio.
A beautifully low-profile, machined aluminium baseplate conceals a hidden attachment tool, making battery access a breeze. Micro Clutch also includes a removable tripod plate for use with Capture, PD tripods and third party Arca-Swiss compatible tripods. A built-in Anchor attachment point allows use with any PD camera strap.
This first-hand strap is designed specifically for smaller mirrorless cameras, and it perfectly complements the aesthetics of your camera. Unlike traditional DSLR wrist straps that press your palm against the camera body, the Hypalon finger loop accommodates 2–4 fingers for total security. The axial strap attachment allows the strap to conform to the shape of your hand, and the microfibre wicking pad ensures all-day comfort. Micro Clutch offers safety, stability, and comfort in one beautifully designed package.
The unique design of the Peak Design Micro Clutch gives you a delightful combination of superior grip and enhanced comfort without restricting your access to your camera's front, back and top controls.
The Peak Design Micro Clutch fits a wide range of mirrorless camera bodies. Choose the L-plate model for mirrorless cameras with a pronounced grip, and the I-plate model for cameras with little or no grip. For DSLR cameras, we recommend using the original Peak Design Clutch hand strap. Check the Camera Compatibility Chart to see which Micro Clutch is the perfect match for your camera.
The Peak Design Micro Clutch is now for sale at the Peak Design retailers in the Benelux, United Kingdom, and Ireland. The recommended retail price for the Peak Design Micro Clutch L-plate and I-Plate is €74.99 for the Benelux and Ireland and £65.99 for the UK.
