Modular L-Bracket System

All About Ellie

WHAT MAKES ELLIE UNIQUE?

Ordinary universal L-brackets are limited both in functionality, and compatibility. Ellie is the world's first truly universal L-bracket, and just happens to be the most functional, modular and configurable L-bracket on the planet. Click on the button below to learn more about what makes Ellie unique.

A Comprehensive Guide

WHICH ELLIE IS RIGHT FOR ME?

The Ellie System now has multiple options for base compatibility, so this section helps you decide which Ellie is the correct one for you. There's a short explainer video, and an even shorter two-question form, which will tell you exactly which Ellie or Base is the right version for your camera.

Compatibility

A GUIDE TO COMPATIBILITY

This section shows many of the current cameras with Ellie or Ellie Short attached. As Ellie and Ellie-PD share the same Base length and top geometry, the visual representations work for both products. Ellie-Short and Ellie-PD-Short share the same base length, so those images represent both.

The World's Only Modular L-Bracket System

The Ellie System is a world first in modular camera brackets. Combining a reversible, rotatable vertical aspect, with one of four precision base units, the Ellie is the most functional, most compatible L-Bracket in the world, and the ONLY L-Bracket system with Peak Design & Arca Swiss compatibility.

Choice of FOUR different base units

Ellie has four possible base options giving an unprecedented level of compatibility. With two shoe choices - Arca or Peak Design V3 Capture, and two base lengths - Standard and Short, there's an Ellie to suit every camera.

Figure Hugging

With two-axis adjustments, Ellie fits more cameras than any other universal L-Bracket, with an unprecedented level of functionality.

Modular

Ellie's detachable release plate can be used in isolation, or with the vertical aspect. Dual Arca-Swiss profile sides and symmetrical 1/4"-20 threaded ends enable the vertical axis to be configured in 8 positions, enabling more cable access than ever before.

FOUR BASE OPTIONS

With a choice of four bases, purchasable individually, or as part of a dedicated L-Bracket, Ellie is the most advanced and compatible L-Bracket on the planet. Each base features a rear slope to better enable flip-up-or-out screens, and a strap connector. The Ellie system has two stainless-steel bars for width adjustment, and two camera screw placement options, that enable users to perfectly fit Ellie to their chosen camera.

ELLIE

The original Ellie comes with an 85mm Arca-Swiss compatible base, with screen slope and strap connectors. Fits almost every camera, whether DSLR or Mirrorless.

ELLIE PD

Ellie PD is identical to the original Ellie, but has a shoe compatible with Peak Design V3 Capture system. Also compatible with Arca-Swiss, and featuring screen slope and strap connector.

ELLIE SHORT

Ellie Short comes with a 70mm base, designed specifically to fit Fujifilm and Olympus cameras, or any camera where the tripod mount is close to the battery door. With screen slope and strap connectors.

ELLIE PD SHORT

The lovechild of Ellie Short and Ellie PD, the Ellie PD Short features a 70mm base that is both Peak Design V3 Capture and Arca-Swiss compatible, specially designed to fit Fujifilm and Olympus cameras, or any camera where the tripod mount is situated close to the battery door.

Adaptable. Adjustable. Innovative.

Ellie's unique vertical aspect has dual-Arca Swiss profiled edges, and symmetrical ends with twin 1/4"-20 threads, enabling 8 possible side configurations. This gives Ellie unprecedented compatibility and functionality

FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK

Ellie's uniquely configurable side aspect enables users to transform almost any standard ball-head into a long-lens rocker.

SO, WHICH ELLIE DO YOU NEED?

So, which Ellie is right for you?

With four versions to choose from, we've devised a simple two-question form that will tell you which Ellie version is the best option for you. You'll need to measure the gap between the centre of the hole under your camera, to the edge of the battery door for a correct fit.

Which Ellie?

If you don't have your camera to hand, and so can't answer question 2 of our "Which Ellie?" section above, this video explains the four different versions, and who they were designed for.
