A couple of years ago, I was at a shoot and switched my camera from landscape to portrait.

To do this, I turned the tripod head, but the camera started to slip!

The head had lost its tight grip.

To get the shot, I ended up having to ask my client to hold the camera still while I stepped away to light the shot.

Um... not ideal.

That moment, I swore I would solve this issue so that I didn't run into the same problem in the future.

After some research, I decided it was time for an L-bracket!

Landing on which bracket to get, though, was a bit of a journey.

Once I did get one, it was a game changer!
