Quick Release Vertical L Bracket Plate for SONY A6500 ILCE-6500 4K Camera Body fit Arca Swiss Tripod

This is obviously a Chinese product, as there was a customs sticker on the delivery box. But... This item is of exceptional quality and shows that not everything that comes from China is bad. Its machined out of good quality metal that is powder coated, and it fits my em10 mk2 very well. The grip itself is large, which is exactly what I wanted. Now, the camera feels completely different than before! It feels more like my film cameras and I thoroughly recommend this grip for street photography. I also have the original olympus grip, and it was three times the price, and doesn't offer as many features. Overall, I'm very impressed, as the handling of my olympus is greatly improved and the quality at this price range is superb!

As the title says, I have literally only just received this, but just wanted to add a review to clear up a few questions I had in my mind.I bought this for my Nikon D750, to mount on a Manfrotto MHXPRO-BHQ6 Top Lock Ball Head. It looks to be well made, and fits the body well. My concerns before buying an L bracket were;1) Are the side ports accessible so you can plug in a remote shutter release? - YES see photo2) Is the battery compartment accessible without removing the L Bracket? - YES it is3) Does the tilting screen still work? - Yes it moves out freely3) Does it fit on my ball head? - YES, but note the following. This is a Sunway L Bracket, and there are two small screws on each face to limit the side-to-side movement of the plate. In Landscape orientation it fitted on the ball head, but the small screws were fiddly to line up with the ball head top plate. In Portrait orientation the screws had to be removed. I have now removed all of the screws. Also, the overhang at the the front of the bracket means you need to place the locking screw on this ball head on the 'front' of the tripod. None of this is a big deal really.As I said I have not used this in the field yet, but so far, for £23, it does the job. I have to be happy with that. The alternative was a Kirk, at £100 more!Only awarded 4 stars so far because I have not really used it.

This is well machined in one part and for the price compared to brand name versions it is a steal. The mounting to the camera base is secure and solid, whilst I can also attach a screw in wrist carry strap to the bottom of the plate for general walking around with the camera if you wanted the extra security of holding the camera in locations where you feel less safe but without wishing to pack your camera away in your bag.Access to the side compartment is fine for attaching remote cable, other cables, and also to the bottom battery door without having to remove it.Used with Nikon D750.

I have a Manfrotto L bracket costing over £100. Difficult to fit and does not accomodate cable release and is heavy. The bracket need never come of the camera. Cable release can be fitted in situ, battery can be removed without taking it off, cards cam be ejected and, above all it's light. My only slight criticism is the clamping part is a bit wide so has to be slid on rather than dropped in but then the Arco sysstem seems to vary abit in width overall especiall ant the cheaper end so I'll just have to live with it.

Very please. Superb fit on Nikon d750. Tight and secure and not loosened yet. Full access to battery port on side slots for cables etc. Fits my benro swiss perfectly. I'm really freakin impressed. Heard bad things about 3 legged. I tried the pig iron and it seemed generic for many cameras so not good on access to battery, USB etc. One piece to so no worry of two bits separating. I'm a fussy one with camera equipment esp when this product would be holding 3k of kit over a waterfall. Yep I'm super impressed :)

I bought this grip because I had found it awkward to handle my Olympus EM5 MkII camera with my Olympus Zuiko Digital 50-200mm zoom lens with the Panasonic DMW-MA1 Micro Four Thirds adaptor fitted. This is because of the weight of this lens and the small size of this camera's body grip.This hand grip is very well made, is easy to install and fits perfectly. I removed the vertical quick release bracket as it obstructed the deployment of the viewing screen. I had no use for it.I found that there was insufficient room for my fingers between the Panasonic adaptor and the hand grip. I found the same when I fitted my M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-40mm zoom lens which is 70mm in diameter. This was not a problem with the M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm R lens which is 64mm in diameter. As this lens is very light, the grip was redundant and I returned it.I solved the handling problems with an Andoer pistol grip handle fitted to the tripod bracket on the 50-200mm zoom lens.

This is a very nice bracket. I like it very much, it has not come off my Pen-F from delivery. Ideal design for the most part, only down side is the screen can't flip out fully to the side, not a huge problem for me but might be a problem if you wanted to do selfies/vlog with bracket on, as i have a face for pirate radio, not an issue.

As an outdoor photographer shooting mainly waterfalls I often shoot in a portrait orientation, with this L bracket the remote release port will be blocked when attached vertically - the only way around this is to use the WiFi app as a remote trigger.Secondly when attached this bracket makes the camera particularly uncomfortable to take handheld images, although it’s designed for a tripod the added handgrip suggests multi usage. Due to the grips width there is not room for fingers to fit between the grip and the lens body meaning the grip is simply not fit for purpose.and finally... after being attached to a tripod for just a couple of times the bracket will become lose from the camera body and require tightening up, this can happen multiple times in a day and often it’s not obvious so can ruin long exposures.The bracket itself has a nice solid build but overall given the price point I feel it’s simply ok - if you want better performance spend more money
