Description

Meet Zadie, the latest addition to our alphabet of L-brackets and arguably the most stylish thing you can bolt to a Nikon Z6 III & Z5 II. We took everything we’ve learned from Zelda, Zooey, and Zaara—and made something even more outrageously useful. Zadie is a precision-fit, magnesium alloy marvel designed to do one thing brilliantly: enable you to switch between portrait and landscape on a tripod whilst maintaining the same focal plane and level horizon. This saves you time so you only reframe your subject, you don't need to completely recompose your shot. This also keeps you above the central point of your tripod, for optimum stability. 

Zadie includes a cut-out that lets you flip, tilt, and tap your screen without any gymnastics. She’s enhanced with multiple accessory points (QD sockets for use with our Axis Camera Strap System, 1/4”-20, 3/8”-16 accessory threads with adapters) so you can attach lights, mics, monitors, or a small emotional support animal if necessary. We’ve also included compatibility with Peak Design’s Capture clip, thanks to a rugged ABS adapter supplied in the box. There’s even a slot in the base for your camera strap, because carrying your camera shouldn’t require a master’s degree in knots.

Manfrotto tripod owners: all of our L-brackets are standard 38 mm / 1.5" Arca-Swiss compatible. Manfrotto Arca-Swiss heads may have a lipped clamp that will prevent L-bracket use. Manfrotto RC2 plate heads are not compatible. Please check your head model before ordering.

Exceptional build quality and feel. Lots of threaded spots with adapters to add on whatever you want. However, the fit on the Z5ii is not quite perfect - there is a gap between the camera body and bracket on the vertical portion, and it limits the range of the flippy screen. It definitely feels like the Zadie was made for the Z6iii (which is slightly larger and fills that gap to fit nice and snug), and when the Z5ii came out, the fit was "close enough", so they didn't feel it was necessary to make another bracket. Kind of a bummer, but at the same time I have no regrets and wouldn't want another L-bracket on my camera.

Great quality, love the colour. The whole thing feels very solid. The PD clip is plastic which feels cheap in comparison (though I get that not everyone will want/use it) but nonetheless it feels solid especially in the bracket and the included tool is great too.

Annoyingly unlike the Zelda for the previous models, the vertical orientation doesn't fit on the PD tripod with the pins installed. You can remove them and it works fine.
