Great quality, great savings.

After all, it's a finely machined piece of aluminum. That's all. It's all each of them. I have an RRS L mount for my D800 and when I recently bought a D850 this was the first resource I turned to. The "ultra light" model is about the same as what I had for the previous camera, but still - oh the price! So before I bite the bullet, I did a quick search here on Revain. Found this SunwayFoto L mount and it was about 1/3 the RRP. I received it, installed it on my D850, put it on my RRS ball head…

Works for everyday use but not for precise use.

I bought this product in July 2021. The center line of the sensor is not exactly in the middle of the sensor. 1-2 mm deviates. The edge that presses against the side of the camera when mounted vertically is slightly longer, preventing the plate from sliding to align the centerline with the camera's tripod hole/sensor. Second, the plate slightly rotates 1 degree when pressed against the camera. I've requested an exchange hoping it's a QC issue between samples, but the second item has the same…

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Not as good as it promises

Excellent and inexpensive L-Bracket for D850

Was a little hesitant at the thought of how it could be as good as other brands selling around $200 for the same. I gave it a try based on all the great reviews here and the fact that I have the same for my D810. The mount is lightweight, very nicely finished and fits my D850 perfectly. It comes with two hex wrenches and the arc shaped mount fits my tripod perfectly. There is a small "0" on the vertical and horizontal swiss of the mount to align it with the tripod head, if you have one. Makes…

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Expensive
