I don't really use a capo much, but I can't resist gadgets. Here's a minimalist capo:



the Sterner Eccentric, available from http://www.sternercapo.se/Caposhop/shop/shop.htm and details at http://www.sternercapo.se/Caposhop/Eccentric/eccentric.htm . I can't say that it's perfect, in spite of the blurb on their site it is not the quickest capo for me to use, and I often have to tighten it down quite a bit to get good tone.

My favorite remains the Victor:



Not the quickest either, but because the upper jaw can be bent to match the contour of the fretboard, it's possible to get good tone with minimal pressure.
