There is nothing like the great variety of “L”<\/strong> brackets we can access today for our camera bodies. \u00a0For years Really Right Stuff and Kirk Enterprises have both produced high quality brackets. and now thanks to Amazon, a number of imports are also available, many of very good quality. \u00a0Are they up to the RRS and Kirk standards, probably not, but quite good none-the-less. \u00a0One thing some of the imports offer that sometimes the two big players omit is a grip. \u00a0I own RRS and Kirk brackets and stiles them, but have to admit that some of the new brackets with a grip are handy too!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n One problem is that all those “L” brackets are made of \u00a0aircraft aluminum and are smoothy finished and then anodized. \u00a0That’s all good and fine, but….. it means they are slick in your hand. \u00a0For sometime I’ve wished they had added some texture, but sadly they haven’t. \u00a0I was watching a video on Youtube about a product called Talon Grips that many handgun shooter use to add texture and grip to their guns. \u00a0Being a gun enthusiast I was aware of the product and, in fact have used it. \u00a0It comes in a 5″X7″ sheet. \u00a0You simply cut it to the size you need, clean the metal and apply. \u00a0It adds a nice rubbery feeling and textured grip. \u00a0I will use them for a while and report back, but for now I think they are going to make using the camera easier and more secure. \u00a0Below is the info from Amazon oaths product.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n
