I've been trying to decide whether the Capture Pro Clip would work for me on my OMD.
I like the concept but I'm not entirely sure that I'm happy with its implementation as it applies to m4/3.
After measuring the base of the camera, it seems that the MicroPlate is the only plate that would not protrude excessively. However, if I understand correctly, this plate only engages in two directions ie perpendicular to the base of the camera. If the clip were attached to, say, a vertical backpack strap then the camera would engage with the lens facing down. All good so far.
With the clip attached to a belt, however, it looks like the camera would only engage with the lens parallel to the ground. If I decide to buy a 12-40, for example, I can't see that working at all.
Have I correctly understood the limitations of the MicroPlate? Does anyone use a Capture clip on an OMD and, if so, do you just buy an ARCAPlate and ignore the way it looks? (or perhaps a DualPlate since my tripod is RC2)?
