Camera L-Plates (AKA L-Brackets) are among the most-used of my gear. Let's dive right into the Camera L-Plate review with an in-use example. Below is a Canon EOS 5D Mark II with a Canon BG-E6 Battery Grip and a Kirk BL-5DIIG L-Bracket.

The strong, anondized, machined aluminum bracket attaches to the camera via the tripood mounting threads. While some camera-generic L-Brackets are available (or announced), most brackets are camera-specific and available for most DSLRs - with or without battery grips. They are made to perfectly fit the contour of the bottom of the camera - a solid, anti-twist design. The custom brackets are machined to allow access to the various ports and controls. Battery access is also provided.

The bracket bottoms are threaded for a tripod or other attachments similar to the camera body itself.

For Canon 70D 60Da 5Ds 6D 7D 5D Mark II/III MPU105 Quick Release L Plate Bracket. Screw installed in both side, designed to prevent camera from drop ping.Allow you to change the location of the screw to fit different cameras.High quality aluminum alloy material, sturdy and durable to use.

The primary use I have for L-brackets is to quickly, securely and solidly attach a camera or big lens to a tripod or monopod head that has an Arca-Swiss-compatible quick release clamp. And the primary advantage an L-bracket has over a normal camera body plate is that there are two mounting plates - which allows the camera to be attached in landscape or portrait orientation with similar ease.

This versatility avoids the need to use the drop-notch on a ball head (which significantly lowers the viewfinder eye level - especially for cameras with a battery grip) for portrait/vertical-oriented shots. The drop notch then remains available for more framing flexibililty - allowing far-beyond vertical framing even with a level tripod.

Various brackets (such as flash brackets, panorama brackets, other mounts ...) can be attached to the L-brackets. Clamps can be purchased individually and mounted to almost anything your creativity dreams up - allowing your camera to attach to the same.

Camera L-Plates provide some additional protection for the camera itself. These brackets, while not heavy (about 2-5 oz / 50-145g), are quite solid and take any blows coming from the two protected sides of the camera.

I love the Arca-Swiss system of plates and clamps. I can quickly put any camera with any lens on any tripod or monopod head I own. I currently have Kirk and Really Right Stuff Camera L-Plates on all of my primary DSLRs. I highly recommend them.
