Im hoping to pick up an RRS L-plate for my 40D. What kind of quick-release head do I need to mount the l-plate to my ball head or can someone recommend an inexpensive ballhead?

I also won a RRS L-plate for my 40D with battery grip for $33 used. |Canon 80D|40D backup|24-105 F4/L|Sigma 70-200 F/2.8|Sigma 150-500 C|

FWIW I have that EXACT clamp from Amazon and it works perfectly. I use it with my 5D2 with grip and RRS L bracket. It's larger and sturdier than I expected it to be. I bought a smaller 50mm version from the same company to go on my travel tripod which is also built like a tank. You'll be happy with it. InstaGram

Jul 26, 2013 19:04 | #7 I got my L-bracket today!! I paid yesterday morning and it showed up today. It shipped from 25 miles away but didn't expect it before vacation. Now if the quick release comes tomorrow before I leave i'll be in heaven.. LOL |Canon 80D|40D backup|24-105 F4/L|Sigma 70-200 F/2.8|Sigma 150-500 C|
