Questions & Answers

Shopper : can this one fit on canon 6d?
Shopper : I have a Manfrotto 468MGRC2 Hydrostatic Ball Head with the RC2 Rapid connect system. How will this fit on the plate. Do I need to get something else to make this fit on my present head?JERRY F : This L-Bracket has an RC-4 mounting plate. It is much larger than the RC-2. It is not compatible with the RC-2 Quick Release. It seems Manfrotto does not have an RC-2 version of their L-Bracket from what I can see on Adorama's web site. If it is important to you, perhaps you could call Adorama customer service and ask. Compare your ball head with an RC-2 QR: <a href="http://www.adorama.com/BG468MGRC2.html" target="_blank">http://www.adorama.com/BG468MGRC2.html</a> with an RC-4 QR version of your ball head: <a href="http://www.adorama.com/BG468MGRC4.html" target="_blank">http://www.adorama.com/BG468MGRC4.html</a> I'm sure you will see the difference right away. I hope this helps.HOWARD F : The MS050M4-RC4 L-Bracket is for Manfrotto heads that use the RC-4 plate, and it will NOT mate with a head using the RC-2 plate. The model for that is apparently Manfrotto MS050M4-Q2 L Bracket. (I also have an earlier version of the RC-2 L-bracket that I use with a mating RC-2 head.) The advantage of the newer design for both RC-4 and RC-2 is that it has added adjustments to put the rotational center along the axis of the lens, so you can easily switch the mounted camera without having to readjust the tripod head to keep the same image framing.ANDREW R : Unfortunately I do not believe that this unit will work with your existing head. This unit has QR plates that fit the RC4 platform. The RC2 uses a different QR plate that is not compatible.
Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?PENNY O : this is a replacement for what I haveSTEVEN F : for real estate photography

Nice Build Quality

Having a Manfrotto tripod and quick release plate system, this was my next piece I needed for my gear. I was really impressed of the build quality after first opening the box and looking over the product. It was easy to install on the camera body. I have only used it in test shoots so far, but Im very happy with this product.

Couldn't live with out it

The only problem is that with the camera mounted you can't access eith the usb conector or the film cards. I shoot tethered so the choice was easy for me, but it's a choice that has to be made.

Works - Except

It does make it so the camera can be placed on the tripod head in the vertical position. However, the use of Allen screws instead of winged screws makes it difficult assemble and mount the camera. My biggest issue is the fact that no thought was given to the use of accessory connections (USB, HDMI) through the accessory connect door on the side of the camera. The plate that is suppose to keep the camera from rotating on the mount screw is blocks the door. The only way I can use the accessory connection is to mount the camera all the way to the top of the L-Bracket and not use the plate. I use the HDMI output to feed a 24" monitor. The HDMI connector and cable just barely fits between the camera and the bracket. The bracket is usable but the camera can rotate on the mounting screw. The instructions are confusing. Plus, they are so small I had to use a magnifying glass to read them.
