## Description

Product Description

Review: Excellent product - A very good fit. Easy to attach, well made and good value for money
Review: Fits like a glove and battery access is great - I was worried by other reviews but the bracket has a flip-out section that easily allows full access to the battery removal/replacement so don'y let that put you off (not sure if they had an old version or just didn't see the moveable section). Great fit, snug and secure with slide-out vertical section to suit your taste. I guess you could lose the little screwdriver thing but at least they offer the chance to keep it with you and you just need to keep an old penny with you to undo any screws that you really need (unlike others that require you to keep a "hex key" safe on a job). Typical smallrig understated quality and value - just brilliant

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product - note delivery points
*by S***D on 19 June 2024*

The L bracket is exactly as described, fitted my Z8 perfectly and the build quality is excellent. It is a very good product. 100% recommended. The only thing to note is that SmallRig do not spend much on packing - a plain brown eco box with the product details on the outside. It is delivered like that, no additional wrapping, so if you cannot be in for delivery a good reason to use a pick up point. This is my second SmallRig item and will not be the last. They are proving to be quality at a really good price. Images show the bracket working perfectly on Z8 and SmallRig Ap-02 tripod.
