Daniel:Since i helped a little with the design i have a pre-production version of smallrig’s new L-bracket that is designed with 20mm height and did a long first look/walk around. The design goal was to revolve the pinky problem and better ergo. They still have pre-sales going for $41 total. My videos are low production so not sure if you want to share but thats ok.
