Fits perfectly on the camera and really sturdy. It’s the first time I’ve used an L-bracket, I usually get base plates for my cameras and drop the ball head for portrait shooting, but this lowers the camera considerably. I did a whole day of portrait format shooting yesterday, and the L- bracket proved its worth. Of course when dropping a ball head to shoot vertically, the whole of the camera/lens is moved to the side, shifting the centre of gravity off centre; I usually cope with this by shifting the tripod so the camera is extending directly over one of the legs for maximum support. Using the L-bracket, I could shoot vertically whilst keeping the centre of mass over the centre column of the tripod, so enhancing stability. This is the first 3 Legged Thing product I have bought, but I’m very impressed with the quality, making it well worth the price.
The bracket itself is made of alloy and fits the camera perfectly as previous brackets I have owned. Included in the package is a bracket that allows you to attach your camera to a Peak Design Capture Clip. This is an excellent idea, however, unlike the L-bracket, it is made from plastic. I don’t think I will attach a 4000 camera weighing just shy of 1Kg, not including lens to hang from a piece of plastic.
