The ProMaster Complete-L Bracket forms a dovetail, Arca-Swiss compatible quick release plate across the bottom and the side of the camera. This allows the camera to be mounted directly over the top-center of the tripod and head in either a horizontal or vertical position. The camera benefits from the heads full range of motion, while maintaining a central balance point for more stable shots. More stability and balance means improved sharpness. When used in conjunction with a small, compact tripod you gain the additional benefit of more camera height in a vertical position.ProMasters unique, three-piece design allows the side plate of the Complete-L Bracket to be positioned in one of two ways. The normal position places the side plate very close to the left-hand side of the camera. The extended position places the side plate about further away from the left-hand side of the camera for extra spacing and better access to the cameras connection ports. The side plate can also be completely removed from the baseplate when needed.
