The Leofoto LPN-Z30 L-Bracket for Nikon Z30from Leofoto LPN-Z30 L-Bracket for Nikon Z30is a custom-designed bracket for the Z30 mirrorless camera body. It is precision-machined from 6061-T6 aluminum with a black finish, and the L-bracket has two Arca-type compatible dovetail mounting surfaces, allowing the orientation of the camera to be quickly changed from vertical to horizontal on a tripod head. A side dovetail also allows select locking cold shoe accessories to be mounted, expanding customization options.

The bracket provides full access to the battery door so it can be attached to the camera and left in place indefinitely. It has a unique release lever that allows the bracket to expand for easy access to camera ports when shooting tethered, and it has a 1/4"-20 female tripod mount, plus four additional 1/4"-20 mounts. The L-bracket features an integrated hand strap loop and has a magnetically-stored Allen wrench for tightening and loosening the camera screw.

Q: 2. Will this work with rrs bh-55 with clamp?

A: Yes.

Q: 3. Does this come with the 1/4-20 screw? One of the review says that it does not come with a screw to fasten to the camera. Please clarify.

A: Yes it comes with the screw and the hex wrench. Also small safety stop screws and additional hex wrench which I am not using. The most important thing is you will need to file a small bit off the upper lip on the right side as seen from behind. Then blacken with a sharpie and you are all set. This is the best L bracket available that slides left for tethered shooting. It has lens center marks for panorama stitch shooting alignment. A lot of the cheap knock offs do not.

A: Assuming you mean the port for the cable release, the answer is yes. Cable release port is in front of the camera.

Q: 10. This design doesn't have anti-deflection pin at the bottom of the plate but has raised lips instead. Can they damage the camera?

A: The raised lip on the Kirk L-Bracket for Nikon Z8 design should not damage the camera. They act as stoppers, which do not protrude into the frame of the Nikon Z8 Mirrorless Camera (B&H # NIZ8).
