The Vertical Explorer L-Bracket from Explorer Photo & Video is designed to fit a Canon EOS R5 or R6 mirrorless camera and to provide flexibility between horizontal and vertical shooting positions while maintaining balance through the center column of a tripod. The CNC-machined aluminum design has been finished with a titanium-tone anodized coating for durability. The VX-R5 features an Arca-type dovetail mount design and is fully compatible with most Arca-type clamps. The ability to quickly change the camera's orientation from landscape to portrait is one of the biggest advantages when using an L-bracket over a standard quick release mounting plate. This can provide multiple options for compositions while still maintaining balance and even weight distribution on a tripod.
In addition to the tripod mounting socket, four 1/4"-20 accessory mounting threads are located on the bracket's bottom and side to support accessories such as video lights or microphones connected via mounting arms or cold shoe adaptors. Anti-slip rubber pads and dual safety stop screws minimize lateral movement for security and help to prevent the camera from accidentally sliding out of quick release clamps.
The solid one-piece open design allows easy access to all camera ports and does not obstruct movement of the LCD display screen.
