L-brackets are designed to enable a quick change from landscape to portrait orientation and vice-versa, when using a tripod. They enable the user to maintain a level horizon and keep the camera on the same focal plane, while keeping the weight of the camera above the centre of the tripod - the most stable position.

If you own more than one camera, or switch your camera body regularly, a universal L-bracket can give you the needed functionality without having to buy a new L-bracket for each camera. Thanks to adjustable mount positioning, a universal L-bracket can fit on to a variety of cameras. Look below for more information on compatibility.

All of our L-brackets are compatible with standard Arca-Swiss style clamps, which means they can used with a variety of tripods. In addition, our Ellie universal L-bracket system also has versions that are able to be clipped into Peak Design's Capture clip system.
