Extremely solid and much slimmer and lighter than other quick release systems I tried. One downside is that these PGYTech plates don't lock in the Peak Design Capture Clip V3 mount. There isn't enough room for the locking pin to slip into the lock position with these PGY plates due to the design of the "feet" on them. I am considering using a mill / saw / grinder etc to trim a piece off so it will fit, but haven't tried that yet. I don't like the idea of the PGYTech beetle clip being plastic on the back, I think those pins may fail eventually and prefer the all metal construction of the Peak Design Capture Clip.
Alternatively you can use the NEEWER plates that are Peak Design compatible. I just tried one and those work in BOTH this PGYTech quick release base AND the Peak Design Capture Clip V3 (as it's designed specifically to be compatible with that). They're not quite as "nice" as the PGY or Peak Design plates but they work perfectly fine and are inexpensive.
