Clamping design
The Beetle clip uses an innovative clamping design in place of traditional drive bolts, giving a secure and convenient way to carry a camera.
Side security lock
A side security lock prevents accidental release, adding an extra layer of security while travelling.
Small yet reliable
Built from aluminium alloy, the Beetle clip is strong, corrosion-resistant and weighs just 93 g while holding up to 25 kg. It has passed a 24-hour 25 kg static load test and a 6-hour weight-bearing shock test.
Inner rubber pads for slip resistance
Anti-slip rubber pads maximise friction between the clip and strap, keeping the camera secure throughout the day.
Fits a broad range of straps
Multi-position clamping adjustments allow the Beetle clip to clamp tightly to various backpack straps and waist belts.
PGYTECH quick release system
The quick release plate uses a patented anti-loosening screw and thrust needle roller bearing design to keep the camera stable during use.
Arca-Swiss compatible PGYTECH quick release plate
The Arca-Swiss compatible plate lets you move the camera directly from the Beetle clip to an Arca-type tripod, stabiliser or slider without swapping plates.
Mount your camera from every direction
The square-shaped quick release plate supports four-direction mounting, letting users orient the camera based on lens length.
Instant access
Twist the side lock to release the camera quickly, so you are always ready to capture the moment.
Use with action cameras
Combine the Beetle clip with a PGYTECH action camera adapter to attach an action camera securely to a backpack strap.

About the Pgytech P-CG-040
From our tech experts at CEN
The PGYTECH Beetle Camera Clip P-CG-040 clamps to a backpack strap or belt and holds your camera there ready to shoot. It is aluminium, weighs 93g and has passed a 24-hour 25kg static load test. An Arca-Swiss compatible SnapLock plate is included, with a side security lock and anti-slip rubber pads.
Who it suits
Hikers and travel photographers who want the camera on the shoulder strap rather than swinging from the neck. Because the plate is Arca-compatible, the camera goes straight from clip to tripod or gimbal. Add the Action Camera Quick Release Plate to carry an action camera the same way.
Our tech experts advise
Set the clamp position to suit your strap thickness with the included S4 wrench before you head out. Mount the camera facing down with longer lenses so it hangs more comfortably. Keep the side lock engaged whenever you are walking.
