The Explorer VX-R5 is a custom-designed L bracket, allowing you to quickly switch between horizontal and vertical mounting positions while keeping a centre of balance through the middle of your tripod. This single-piece CNC machined aluminium alloy bracket is anodised for durability and weighs only 111g (3.9oz). It mounts to your camera via UNC1/4"-20 screw, with convex edges, anti-slip plate, and dual safety stops to minimise lateral movement and prevent your camera from sliding out of a compatible quick release clamp. The VX-R5 is compatible with Arca-type and Really Right Stuff lever clamps.
The battery compartment and all side ports are fully accessible, and the flip-out / rotating screen of the R5 / R6 has full movement allowing it to be used in all positions.
Why Use an L-bracket?
The ability to quickly change your 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.
