[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 848861, member: 48483"] Next item is to solve a problem with the Smallrig grip attachment, or any of the other ones made out there. You get an Arca-type tripod mount on the bottom, but what about using in a vertical configuration? There is exactly 1 Zf L-bracket I have been able to find, but here's my solution. Smallrig has a right-angle bracket that will quickly clamp on to this or any Arca-type dovetail.
