The Ellie by 3 Legged Thing - Tripod Equipment Review

Camera accessories are fantastic tools that aid our photographic lives and make shots that little bit easier. L-brackets are one of these great tools, they allow users to switch from landscape to portrait in one fell swoop. But finding the right type of L-bracket can be very difficult, especially if you have an oddly shaped camera body or you have two different camera bodies. The Ellie by 3 Legged Thing, could be the answer to your quarrels.

you can remove battery without removing L-bracket you just need to buy the correct one for your camera (also if your mounting a camera with a long heavy lens mount it on the lens not camera unless you want to damage the lens mount).

[@roballen3090]

Advise for next time - please don't keep showing pointless B-roll when you're actually showing off the different configurations of the L-bracket.

Good point. This video is quite old now and I think we noticed and corrected this in later videos. Fingers crossed! Thanks for the constructive criticism, it is appreciated. - MikePhotoBite

On my A6 and a7 series I don’t have to remove it to change the batteries,now I wished they would make it in there iconic blue .

[@gavinswonnell4839]

Hi, a great vid! Could you tell me what attachment i need between ellie and tripod?

[@jessegunderson574]

Have you noticed any instability or bending of the bracket when mounted in portrait? Seems like a dumb idea to have a gap in a piece of equipment that you want to be as stable as possible. It's the only thing holding me back from potentially buying one. Thanks!

Not as yet, and it's been a while. Totally understand what you mean by "The gap" but so far it's not proved to be an issue (personally).

[@nigelmacgeorge5616]

When pointing to a specific part you are describing it really helps when the back of your hand completely hides your fingers. You do know viewers don't get your perspective? Pointing to a gap with a hidden finger is a really clever trick. I stopped watching at that point.

Removing the entire thing to change batteries? What a waste. No thanks.

[@trondsol1]

Not on all cameras.

[@RayStephenson]

That is why they have the shorter version too, I am ordering for small a6100.

[@jamesmcconnon2]

@@RayStephenson even the normal (non short) Ellie version doesn't impede access to the battery on the a6xx series cameras, you can see one mounted to an a6400 on their website
